Periodic Table of Students.
Johnson, Mike
Hoosier Science Teacher, v23 n4 p127-28 May 1998
Presents an exercise in which an eighth-grade science teacher decorated the classroom with a periodic table of students. Student photographs were arranged according to similarities into vertical columns. Students were each assigned an atomic number according to their placement in the table. The table is then used to teach students about similarities among elements and about the periodic table. (PVD)
