Popis: As an enrichment activity for the periodic table unit, students used element symbols to spell their name or a common word. These element "words" were typed into a template using proper element notation, atomic mass, and atomic number. The resulting templates were then printed on iron-on t-shirt transfer papers using an inkjet printer. Students ironed the transfers onto t-shirts and wore the shirts to school in celebration of National Chemistry Week. Faculty and staff were pleased with the positive attitudes the shirts generated, even among students not taking a chemistry course. The supplemental material for this article provides a template for the t-shirt words.
