Today in class you will be designing a brochure for the periodic table. A template for the brochure can be found in my assignments folder in Student Files.

Each section should include:
1. A description of the properties of the elements in that group
2. A description of where the elements can be found on the periodic table
3. Examples of elements in the group with common uses
4. Pictures
Web Sites for research:
