the elements with common properties
(groups/families) and repeating properties (periods)
(1.1.F.a)
Concept: Classification of Matter
Classify a substance as being made up of one kind of
atom (element) or a compound when given the
molecular formula or structural formula (or electron
dot diagram) for the substance (1.1.A.c)
information on selected
elements to the class.
Students will contrast the
properties of individual
elements with compounds that
are created when those
elements combine.
based on the properties of
elements that surround it on the
periodic table.
On a test, classify pure
substances as elements or
compounds based on their
composition
Strand 2: Electrons and Nomenclature
Major Objectives IS Suggested Activities Suggested Assessments
Electron Configuration War
Electron Configuration
Battleship
Concept: Electrons
Predict the electron configuration of elements
applying the aufbau principle, the Pauli exclusion
principle, and Hund’s rule.
Concept: Electromagnetic Spectrum
Describe the relationship among wavelength, energy,
and frequency as illustrated by the electromagnetic
spectrum (1.2.A.c)
Concept: Electromagnetic Spectrum Objectives:
Describe the effect of different frequencies of
electromagnetic waves on the Earth and living
organisms (e.g., radio, infrared, visible, ultraviolet,
gamma, cosmic rays) (1.2.A.g)
C1
T
Diagram different types of
waves
Cooperative learning project.
Each group presents on a
different kind of wave.
Students will correct flawed
electron configurations and
orbital diagrams while
identifying the rule(s) that was
violated.
Compare and contrast two
different waves from the
electromagnetic spectrum.
In addition to testing, student
presentations are graded
according to quality of
information, presentation skills,
and creativity.
