3D Periodic Table

Steps to Assemble Your
Alexander Arrangement of the Elements Model (AAE)

I want to go to the 3D Periodic Table order page...
Step 1
As you learn about the element groups, use markers to color the areas (not too dark). After you color the areas, with a sharp-pointed black marker, add the element symbols and names as you learn about them.


Step 2
After all the areas are color coded and the symbols marked - which could take a number of classroom sessions - take the sheet apart where there is die cut scoring.


Step 3
Save the top part of the cardboard sheet where the three drawings of the completed AAE are located. Later you will use these as a filler.
Step 4
You will not need the instructions any more, so remove the small tabs from that area after the rest is separated.


Step 5
To make the parts take on a curve, roll them into a tube. For a couple of days, hold the tube in place with rubber bands or paper clips.


Step 6
Assemble the 3D Periodic Table (following the instructions that come with each set) by attaching the Rare Earths to the main body. Be sure the connections are secure so they don't come apart.

Step 7
Then we connect the s-block to the d-block.


Step 8
The tabs come in handy to hold the parts together and make connections to the other parts.


Step 9
The end of the second and third periods join the start of the following periods.

Step 10
The Hydrogen Crown wraps around to the start of the second period.


Step 11
Now that the illustrations have served their purpose, remove the part with three round segments to make a filler that will help the s&d-block section assume a rounder shape.


Step 12
After folding the filler into an accordion, one tab goes out through a slot part way up the s&d-block tube and the other through one closer to the bottom.

Step 13
You have now completed all the 3D Periodic Table Steps and have a fine reference tool, keepsake, and conversation piece - the Alexander Arrangement of the Elements!

I find the steps easy and want to go to the 3D periodic table order page...
