Assignment "Element Tiles"

To review the Elements and all the information that surrounds them we are going to make "Element Tiles". You will be given a hand out in class that has all the needed information and how you will be graded. You will be given time to research for this information on Friday. You will need to complete this activity by NOVEMBER 12th.

Paper will be provided, if you don't have some at home. I don't want to hinder your creativity by giving you one color or one type of paper.

Here are the resources I want you to check out when collecting your data for your tile.

25 Most Common Elements

On Monday, November 9th, we will have a quiz over the 25 most common elements. On this quiz you will either be given the element symbol or the name of the element. You will be responsible for telling me the symbol or the element or both. I have provided you with the following activities to practice with and you will be making flashcards in class. SPELLING and CAPITALIZATION DOES COUNT!

On Friday, November 6th, you will have the opportunity to take a pretest. If you get 100% on the pretest, you will not have to take the test on Monday. Study up!
