Objectives Students enter elements into spreadsheet create graphs illustrating the physical properties of different elements copy their graphs into a word processing program. Students click on the element symbol and compile the data on the Basic Information page for each element. Students create spreadsheets using the information gathered about each element. Students then create graphs illustrating and comparing some of the information they entered on the spreadsheet. For example, students create graphs illustrating and comparing the boiling points, melting points, and number of protons for the elements studied.
Students copy and paste their graphs into a word-processing program.
End the lesson by having students write paragraphs about the results of their research. Assessment Grade students on how well they collect data, create spreadsheets, paste the information into a word processing program, and write paragraphs about the results.
