This was a very neat layout with the ELA and math CCSS weaved into science. It can be used as a cumulative assessment for the first quarter after the completion of the periodic table and is a good segue into radioactivity. I will make this as a group activity where students will research radioactivity and its use and misuse in the society by quoting evidences from history. They will then chose a radioactive element and present on a poster a diagram, electron configuration, periodic properties, and the type of radioactive decay this element undergoes. Students will use this info to argue and present to the class why their element should be a part of the radioactive process.
This will give the teachers a good understanding of whether the students have understood the concept and it's relevance in their lives or should they go back and review with them.
