Periodic Table Fun By: Siobhan

Rus and Tert have been absolutely loving their science curriculum for this year, which is Apologia's Young Explorers Exploring Creation with Chemistry and Physics. They recently studied the Periodic Table of Elements. One of the experiments was making the periodic table out of cookies. I gave them a little help piping the elements on the cookies, but they frosted them all by themselves.
 Supplies: Shortbread Cookies, Frosting, Decorating Gel, and a Copy of the Periodic Table of Elements
I counted out the number of cookies for each color that we did, and then I divided the cookies between Rus and Tert to decorate. We only did one color at a time, or else it would have gotten crazy.
Filia did the blue and red cookies, and Rus and Tert did the yellow and brown. We had frosting to do more colors, but we ran out of time and cookies. :) 
 Our Periodic Table
Great Job Guys!
