Organization of the Periodic Table

Author: Tamara Ellsworth

Instructions for the video

The video is to be used with your blank periodic table and later on with your Sargent Welch Periodic Table.  Use the blank table with the video to fill in the different families and other parts of the periodic table.  Rewind as often as needed to take complete notes. Take notes and practice learning the different parts like you would memorize different countries, places on a map.  In class, we will be singing a song to help memorize parts of the Periodic Table.

Periodic Table Organization

The Periodic Table is organized by groups (families) and periods. This video will show where these different families and properties are located on the table. Like you memorize a map in geography, you will need to memorize the families and properties of the Periodic Table.

Google an empty or blank Periodic Table, make a copy and follow along. You can pause/play as needed to take notes.
