Resources for Teaching the Periodic Table

Are you gathering resources for teaching about the periodic table of elements?

I included a simple set of sorting activities in my product that introduces students to sorting by attribute.

Then, they can create their own periodic table.

Check out the amazing resources included with the product AND online resources that can make this topic an amazing addition to your science classroom.

STEM at Home

Check out these resources from Sciencefun.org. I highlighted a few activities, specifically choosing ones that have simple materials and a video. It’s just a sample of the science activities on their site, pick what works best for you and, as a scientist, be safe!

There’s more from NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Smithsonian.

Many great ideas for science at home!

Simple Science at Home – More Bubbles!

I recently posted suggestions from Steve Spangler for bubbles.

My niece called for a bubble recipe as she played with her almost two-year old son and I thought it can be such a fun activity I’d find more resources for you.

Just like my last blog, my source is the Exploratorium Museum

I listed activities from simple materials to uncommon materials like dry ice.

Simple Science at Home – Pressure

Here’s the fifth in a series of fun, at home resources
I want to share from SteveSpanglerScience.com. 

He’s posting fifty experiments for fifty days starting yesterday 3/23/20. Check them out!

I picked activities that worked for a variety
of ages and with simple materials you might find at home.

I suggest many extensions to challenge
kids as they do science (and make the activity
take a bit longer).
