I used the following as I taught the periodic table. P is for Polly Proton witha positve charge E is for Elliott Electron with a negative charge. N is for Nelda Neutron with a neutral charge.

PEN is also known as the subatomic particles. We still use APEMAN to help the Bohr model. Students watch segments of the periodic table that dealt with group 1 the very reactive and compared it to group 18 which was the least reactive and stable. Students completed the coloring coded activity for the period table. The 'Missing Person" activity. We will complete a card sort activity in which students place various characteristics under the appropiate group or family. The last thing i will do for this tek is the ion challenge activity.
