Periodic Table Mini Project

You will be working with your table group to create a poster.

This poster will be about a specific group on the periodic table and will be used to teach your classmates!

Each group member will be assigned a specific role for this project to make it run quickly and efficiently.

Group Member Roles

Primary Investigator This person will ask group members for ideas for

the poster, making sure that everyone’s ideas are heard and considered.

This person will also write down ideas in a rough draft of the poster.

Materials Manager This person will gather all materials needed for the

poster – paper, markers, rulers, etc. This person will also make sure that the work area

is cleaned up at the end of class and that all materials are returned to their proper place.

Group Member Roles

Research Director This person will ensure that all group members have

at least one questions assigned to them to answer for the poster.

This person will also make sure that textbooks are returned to their proper place at the end of class.

Group Ambassador This person will be the only group member allowed to

communicate with a teacher for clarification during this project.

This person will report to a teacher the progress on the poster and ensure that the work being completed is of quality.

Group Member Expectations

Beyond his or her specific role, all group members are expected to answer at least one question from the checklist for your particular part of the periodic table.

Keep in mind that there will be a peer review portion of the grade for this poster!
