Abstract
This paper on the periodic table seeks to offer ideas around the celebration of the International Year of the Periodic Table (2019 IYPT) proposed by UNESCO for 2019 and supported by different international organizations. These ideas revolve around the consideration of scientific language as an articulating axis to teach the periodic table and the use of the contributions of different scientists to achieve what we know today as the periodic table. Additionally, we make some methodological proposals to celebrate the 2019 IYPT collectively or in a personal way. © 2019. Acad. Colomb. Cienc. Ex. Fis. Nat.
