Name:

Tic-Tac-Toe Matter! Student Number:

Directions: Find and complete any 3 activities that would form a Score:
straight line on the grid (a column, row, or diagonal) on 3 separate
sheets of computer paper. Lightly shade/color the boxes you chose on
this page, and staple this page on top of all three sheets when you are
complete. This project is due on: ____________________

Title: “Atoms vs. Molecules”
Draw at least six examples of
atoms and six examples of
molecules in the correct column.
Color code the circles to represent
atoms of specific elements (ex: all
oxygen atoms the same color,
etc.), and create a key to show
what each color represents.
Title: “Test Questions.” Write 6
test questions based on the
material we have learned so far in
this unit. The questions should be
multiple-choice (4 choices each),
and there should be an answer
key at the bottom of your page.
This may be typed.
“Proud Parents”
Choose one element from the
Periodic Table to research.
Create and color/decorate a “birth
certificate” for your element that
creatively answers ALL of the
following questions:
1. Who discovered your
element?
2. When and where was it
discovered?
3. What are its common uses?
4. What is its atomic number and
chemical symbol?
Title: “Matter PowerPoint”.
Create a 6-slide PowerPoint
presentation that reviews atoms,
molecules, elements,
compounds, mixtures, and
solutions. Print your PowerPoint
in “handout” mode so that all 6
slides will fit on one page. Each
slide should be clearly titled. You
should have at least 2 facts and a
picture for each slide.
Draw a model of an atom of
Neon, including the correct
number of protons, neutrons, and
electrons (look up the atomic
number on your Periodic Table).
“Model of Neon”. Use the Bohr
method to show how many
electrons can be in each “orbit”.
Please color code your protons,
neutrons, and electrons and
include a key for colors.
Draw a T-Chart titled, “Elements
vs. Compounds”. In the
elements column, write the
chemical symbols of any six
elements from the Periodic
Table. In the Compounds
column, write 6 chemical
formulas for the compounds
below (you will need to do some
research to find their chemical
formulas). Compounds: rust,
mothballs, glue, vinegar, sucrose,
& methane.
Title: “Recipes that Matter!”
Complete a chemical formula table,
using 4 real formulas you find
through research. The left column
should be title “Baker’s Choice” (w/
formulas written underneath), and
the right “Ingredients Needed”
(where you’ll write out each element
used for that formula and tell how
many atoms are needed.)
Title: “Matter Crossword Puzzle”.
Define and use the following words:
atom, element, molecule, compound,
mixture, solution, condensation,
evaporation, freezing, melting. The
definitions should be the clues.
Include an answer key on the back of
the page to show where the words
belong. You may use an online
crossword puzzle maker, such as
http://puzzlemaker.discoveryeducation.com/
Create a “Periodic Table Search”
that asks people to find info for 12
different elements based on one clue
given: atomic number, symbol, or
name. Number the boxes of missing
info and write answers for each
number on the back of the paper.
You may type or handwrite.
Example:
Atomic # Symbol Name
37 1. 2.
3. C 4.
5. 6. Potassium
