Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. The rows in the periodic table are called periods.
  2. The columns in the periodic table are called groups
  3. Metals are found to the lower left on the periodic table.
  4. Nonmetals are found to the upper right on the periodic table.
  5. Metals make up the majority of the elements on the periodic table.
  6. The properties of metals include: - Lustrous (shiny) - Sonorous (makes a ringing sound) - Hard. - High density (are heavy for their size) - High tensile strength (resist being stretched) - High melting and boiling points. - Good conductors of heat and electricity.
  7. The properties of non-metals include: - Low melting and boiling points. - Insulators of
