Question
pop goes the weasel or offenbachs \can - can\ can be used to create songs for memorizing the elements on the periodic table.
for easy and faster memorization of the first 20 elements of the periodic table students can create their own mnemonic phrases like \happy henry likes beans but could not obtain food\ (h, he, li, be, b, c, n, o, f, ne)
do now:
turn & talk and talk with your table partner to create your own mnemonic phrase for next 10 elements on the periodic table : (sodium, magnesium, aluminium, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium ) with the following chemical symbol (na, mg, al, si, p, s, cl, ar, k, ca)
To create a mnemonic phrase, we take the first letter (or a sound - alike) of each element's name or symbol. For Sodium (Na), we can use "Na"; Magnesium (Mg) - "Mg" (we can use "Mary" as a sound - alike for Mg); Aluminium (Al) - "Al" ( "Ate" as a sound - alike); Silicon (Si) - "Si" ( "Silly"); Phosphorus (P) - "P" ( "Pears"); Sulfur (S) - "S" ( "Soup"); Chlorine (Cl) - "Cl" ( "Clam"); Argon (Ar) - "Ar" ( "Argon" can be "Arg"); Potassium (K) - "K" ( "King"); Calcium (Ca) - "Ca" ( "Cake"). Then we string these together into a meaningful phrase. So "Naughty Mary Ate Silly Pears Soup Clam Arg King Cake" works as each word's first letter (or sound) corresponds to the element's symbol or name.
