Atomic Structure Spin Wheel Revision Resource This resource encompasses 12 key questions from the atomic structure unit. These are questions selected as they occur regularly and are classically challenging for students to answer. The resource is based around the charges, weights and locations of subatomic particles in the atom. Example questions from the spin wheel resource: Describe the mass of an electron compared to a proton What do atoms become when they gain or lose electrons? What is the charge of a proton? Also included in the resource is a full answer set. There is also an instructions sheet, with helpful guidance on using the spin wheel as a revision tool, student answer sheet and a ‘tick and repeat sheet’. This encourages the student to revisit the spin wheel to revise the key questions until they reach the ‘know it’ level. Very simple preparation: Print the sheets (set up in A4 PDF). The students can then cut out the pin wheel for themselves and push a pen or pencil through the middle for the wheel to spin around. I found clamp stands to be a useful alternative.
