Periodic Table
Suggestion

Periodic Table is the heart of chemistry and if it is explained to the students in their younger age, it will be easier for them to learn and memorize it.

Great Science Video Presentation
Suggestion

The class is divided into groups of 5. Then each group is given a theme and a subtheme based on which the group will have to give a presentation with the experiment demonstration, explanation, etc with the assistance of a mentor. This is a competition we have designed in our school to celebrate IYC.
