Mole Day Decorations and Ideas

Any chemistry teacher will tell you that Mole Day is a big deal. Here are some Mole Day decorations and ideas that caught my attention while attending EdCamp Tulsa. I’ve already shared photos of an interesting looking Periodic Table of the Elements Project.

When I took chemistry in high school, the most important day of the year was October 23rd.  Why?  It was Mole Day.  Math teachers celebrate Pi Day.  Chemistry teachers celebrate Mole Day.  Inspired by these Mole Day decorations, I think I want my students to design their own Pi Day decorations next year.

Enjoy the pictures of some mole day student projects!

  1. I love the "homemade" periodic table as well. Chemistry wasn't my favoring Science, but that is a great project. If you wanted to keep the idea of a word wall, have the students create their own "math word" posters, and put them together into units like the periodic table. Each student could sign up to research a word, phrase, formula, mathematician, etc that goes with future units … so this would be an ongoing project … and you could probably come up with enough stuff so that each of your students would get something different. Just a thought! 🙂

    BTW … I love your blog and am slowly becoming obsessed with idea of interactive notebooks. I didn't know what they were until about 3 months ago. I'm going to try them next year with my classes! Have a Happy Friday!

    1. Ooooh! I like the idea of making it an ongoing project. I kinda picture it as wall-papering my classroom with math!

      And, thanks for your kind words about my blog. I'm excited that you are trying out interactive notebooks next year. If you need any help, let me know!

  2. Wow! I totally didn't know about Mole Day and its fun association with Avogadro's constant. What a fun way to remember things! Also, loved your "coffee" mnemonic for remembering Pi (another discovery for me). You know, I loved mathematics but could never pursue it formally, so, reading your blogs make me feel as if I've gone back to school. Keep up with the love!

    1. Glad I could teach you something! You are truly a life-long learner!
