Answer:
Name of element: Oxygen (O)
Period (Row): 2
The number of the period (row) in which the element is in tells us how many energy levels (known as shells or circles) the element has.
Because Oxygen is in row 2 it tells us we need to draw 2 circles.
The group that the element is in also tells us the number of electrons present in the element's outer energy level (also known as an outer shell or outer circle).
Because Oxygen is in group 6 it must have six electrons on its outer energy level.
We know that the first energy level always has two electrons.
So we draw two energy levels. On the first energy level, we draw 2 dots or crosses (to represent the two electrons). On the second energy level, we draw 6 dots or crosses.

In this answer (you did not specify which element to use so I've written down the steps if you want to choose another element) I've written Oxygen as an example.
