Survey of the Elements
Bring the periodic table to life in your classroom with this selection of 36 element displays. Elements represented include 12 metals (aluminum,
berylium, bismuth, calcium indium, lead, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, strontium, and tin); eight transition metals (chromium, copper,
gold, iron, manganese, silver, titanium, and zinc); four metalloids (antimony, boron, germanium, and silicon); seven nonmetals
(carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, selenium, and sulfur); three halogens (bromine, chlorine, and
fluorine); and two noble gases (argon and helium). These 5" x 6" displays are housed in three storage boxes and come
with 15 periodic tables that have been printed to match the background colours of the displays. While more hazardous
materials have been realistically simulated and all specimens are enclosed in display cases, this set is not for use with
young children or without proper supervision. Shipped directly from factory. Allow extra delivery time. Sh. wt. 19 lbs.

The Periodic Table for Students DVD Series
Allow your students the opportunity to
investigate the links between chemistry
and real life, using the most successful
arrangement of scientific
data ever devised — the
modern periodic table!
This fascinating series
reveals layer after layer
of meaning contained
in this simple table with
dynamic graphics and
exciting lab footage. From
the history of the table,
to its many uses, The
Periodic Table for Students examines the relationship between atomic
structure and the properties of matter. Each title includes a closer
look at some of the many patterns found in periods and groups of
elements that combine to create the world around us. Five volume
set includes one each of the following DVDs Atomic structure and the
Periodic Table, The History of the Periodic Table, Properties of Compounds, Properties of
Elements, and Using the Periodic Table. DVDs feature Spanish language track, discussion
questions and activities, and a guide to learning the elements. 23 min. each. Teacher’s
guides included. Sh. wt. 1.38 lbs.

The Atom Laminated Poster
Students learn all about the wide world of the atom in
this poster that features sections on atom composition,
atom numbers, thermonuclear fusion, radioactivity, positron
emission tomography,
fission of uranium, and how
a nuclear reactor works. Also
features a periodic table of
elements and identifications
of scientists influential in
atomic science. Key parts in
all sections are labeled in
English, Spanish, French, and
German. Measures 36" W x
24" H. Grades 7-12.

Periodic Table of Elements 5-Pack
Examine the role alkali metals play in
fireworks. Explore the alkaline-earth
metals, including calcium which is crucial for
strong bones. Go inside a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier
for a look at transition metals. Investigate
how emerging metal technologies will change
the way we drive in the future. And go behind
the scenes to see the role metalloids play in
making computers work. 280 minutes. Grades
6-12. Sh. wt. 1.50 lbs.

Model Plus: The Atom
An up-to-date model of the Bohr atom. Depicts
the recent scientific discovery of the atom with
a “fuzzy cloud” of electrons rather than the electrons
orbiting in neat ellipses. Model is made of
resilient, non-toxic EVA foam to withstand years
of active investigation. Detailed teacher’s guide
includes inquiry-based lab activities, reproducible
worksheets, complete background
information, assessment ideas, and more. Model
measures 19" x 13" x 3".
Grades 6-10. Sh. wt. 1.50 kgs.
