Define/discover:

Our problem is we have to re make the periodic table

How’s: How can we include the lanthanides and actinides with keeping the table organized. How can we make it easier for people to remember all of the elements? How can we change this? How can we completely re due this table and make it better than the previous table?

Ideas: We could order the table by

• Atomic number
• Elements
• Weight
• Importance

We could change the shape of the table, we could make the table bigger or smaller, we could go by the weight of the certain elements

Dream: Our plan is to make a circle organizing by its atomic number while keeping them with there families and groups. Maybe to make it easier to find some elements you could put your finger in the middle and spin it until you see it.

Design/Deliver:

We are going to make the periodic table a circle an have it sorted by there state and their atomic weight/number therefore making the inner elements the lighter elements on our table, and the outer elements have a higher density or a higher atomic number then the inner elements. We feel that the original periodic table is not engaging enough therefore making the circle more engaging.

Legend:

Akali metals: Blue

Alkaline: Green

Halogens: red

Noble gases: orange

Transition metals: purple

Solids: Square

Liquid: squiggly line

Gas: Star

Debrief: In the end I am not sure how we could alter our table and make it more efficient. With our table it is well organized and engaging and looks very bright and colourful. Our table was very well done (my opinion).
