The study aims at developing the skill of remember periodic table through mnemonics. The study was conducted on 55 students selected through purposive sampling using pretest- posttest single group design. A 20 item test developed by the investigation was used as a pretest as well as the post test. The 3 phase treatment was geared up to teaching periodic table of all elements and rules for deriving these through activities. Gain scores (%) were calculated and mean gain score was sufficiently high to support the conclusion that the exposure given to students through Mnemonics based teaching and learning of science is effective in enthusing them and increasing their achievement
