Science for elementary school grades K-6 varies somewhat in content from one textbook series to another, but it is fairly common that 40-60% of the material covered is directly related to physics. These texts suggest that certain learning activities such as experiments, demonstrations, and observations be carried out by the teacher and the class. Often the apparatus for a learning activity is to be constructed from simple, readily available materials. The typical elementary school teacher has had little experience in performing experiments and is often frustrated in his/her attempts at carrying out the suggested learning activity. To meet this need …

Bond Hybrids And The Structures Of The Lanthanide Metals [Abstract], Richard H. Langley
Faculty Publications
The ideas developed by Altmann, Coulson, and Hume-Rothery to relate bond hybrids to metal structures are extended to include treatment of the f orbitals. A discussion of the possible hybrids along with their application to the lanthanide metals will be considered.
