This lesson is designed to teach high school students about the trends found in the four main families (groups) on the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Halogens and Noble Gases.  Students will work in groups of three to complete a family sketch for their assigned chemical family.  They will go over the family members and trends/characteristics found within each family.  They will create a "day in the life" description of their family along with sketching a family portrait.
