Periodic+Trends+Rubric

Rubric (feel free to change this and make it visually better in anyway that you see fit, I just quickly made this to go along with the page) (Jeremy K)

Can apply above knowledge to other scenarios/situations. (Ethan Matlin) Uses previous skills to explain the trends (like using electron configurations), (Arin Kerstein) Is able to effectively apply knowledge of periodic trends to predict the relationships of atoms;for example which has bigger ionic radii, chloride or sulfide and be able explain using field diagrams and electron configurations plus other knowledge learned in physics and from the text book. (Sam Crowe) Would be able to explain to another person without notes about what the periodic trends are and what causes them to occur (Ross Steinberg)
 * A:** Being able to clearly and thoroughly explain periodic trends for atom size, electronegativity, ionization, and ion size, etc (first ionization energy (Kevin Ray)), by use of electron configurations, graphs and diagrams, families, and forces. (Shoshi Center)


 * B**: Knowing the periodic trends of atom size, electronegativity, ionization, and ion size, but only being able to fully explain why some of them are present (e.g.- explains all aspects of two and only more general ideas for others). Can create electron configurations, diagrams, and graphs which are used a bit in explanations of trends, but they could go more in depth . (Kathryn J.)

Displays knowledge of periodic trends but has limited knowledge of how to explain them using electron configurations and other prior knowledge. (Kevin Ray) Has trouble with applying the problems to electron configurations mathematically. (Edward Kang)
 * C:** Knowing, and somewhat being able to explain atom size, electronegativity, ionization, and ion size but not able to effectively apply them/what they entail. (Jeremy K)

Also, knowing very, very basic concepts of periodic elements, but not knowing enough to explain it to others who don't know about it. (Jeremy Chin)
 * D**: Knowing what the periodic trends are but not able to apply or explain them in depth. (Jeremy K)

Not being able to recognize or explain the periodic trends (Ross Steinberg) Not knowing anything about the periodic table. (Jeremy Chin)
 * F**:"wait, what are elements again?"(Marielle Billig)
