The question you being with is very interesting "Why do some elements form +1 ions? Why do others form +2 ions? And yet, still others form-‐1,-‐2or-‐3 ions?" I think I might try to use this as a challenge for my students. I don't see where you ask the students to make sense of their investigation and I encourage you to do so. It is easy to update your activity if you do make changes.
