Periodic table is the orderly arrangement of elements
into various groups.

LEARNING OUTCOME
To enable the pupil

1) to identify the characteristics of elements and recognize

the same for developing acquiring factual knowledge

2) to explain the characteristics and names of elements for

developing conceptual knowledge

3) practicing the practical work for developing procedural

knowledge

4) validating the methods to identify the characteristics of

elements for developing metacognitive knowledge.

PRE REQUISITES
The students already know about atoms and molecules.

TEACHING LEARNING RESOURCES

Materials :
.

Periodic table, activity cards containing various

questions related to given activities .

Audio-visual aids

Images of periodic table in laptop.

Classroom Interaction Procedure

Expected pupil response

Introduction
1. Have you heard about periodic table?
2. Can you give a definition of periodic table?
3. How many elements are familiar to you in the
periodic table?
4. Do you its symbols of all these elements?

Yes
It is an orderly arrangement of
elements.
Two, Three, Seven
Dont Know

Through this class, we are going to study about

these type of substances.

Presentation
Teacher divided the students into 6 groups. They
are given names A,B,C,D,E,F and ask them to do
the following activities.

Students are arranged into groups.

Activity I
I am going to introduce a small and happy life like
ours. This family also consists of grand
parents,parents,father,mother,grand children etc.

house is periodic villa. While reaching there, we
can see grand father of this family. He was sitting
infront of the house. He welcomed us and after
having a friendly talk, he introduced members of
his family. It is given below.
Mother - Berylium ( Be)
Father - Lithium (Li)
Grandfather - Hydrogen (H)
Grand Child - Boron ( B)
Grand Mother - Helium (He)

Discussion clues
1. Who is the first member?
2. Do you know which are the gases present in
our sun?
3. Can you arrange these five elements
according to order?

Students carefully listened the story.

Grand father - Hydrogen

Grand Mother - Helium
Father
- Lithium
Mother
- Berylium
Grand child
- Boron

Hydrogen
Helium
H , He , Li , Be , B

Concept to be consolidated.
From this activity, first five elements of the
periodic table are H, He, Li, Be, B

Activity II
Can you find who I am?

Discussion clues

Oxygen

1. I am present in larger quantity in humans

body?

Symbol is O

2. I help for combustion?

3. I am a gas.
4. Joseph Priestly discovered me.

Concept to be consolidated
Oxygen is a gas which helps for combustion and
present in our body. It is represented by symbol
is O.

Activity - III
Read carefully a conversation from a jwellery.

Aurum , Au
Argentum , Ag

1. Which metal is having yellow colour?

2. What is its another name and symbol?
3. What is the name of silver?
4. What is the symbol of platinum?

Concept to be consolidated

Pt

Gold is known as yellow metal. Its latin name

is Aurum. From this, its symbol Au is taken. For
silver, the symbol Ag is derived from its latin
name Argentum. Platinum is represented by
Pt.

FOLLOWUP ACTIVITIES
Review..

1. How many elements are now you familiar with?

2. Write its symbols.

3. What is the latin name of gold and silver?
4. What is the symbol platinum?

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY
Identify more elements from the periodic table which are common in our daily life
and identify its symbol and latin name if present
