Perfect lesson resource for KS3 Chemistry! A fully differentiated and resourced two part lesson that assists students in learning about atoms, elements, compounds and chemical formulae.
In part 1: Students will state what an element is and recall chemical symbols, describe what atoms are, and compare the properties of one atom of an element to the properties of many atoms.
In part 2: Students will describe the difference between an element and compound, write the chemical names for some simple compounds, write and interpret chemical formulae.
The resource includes a detailed and engaging lesson PowerPoint with differentiated activities, worksheets, quizzes and class practical/demos for students to complete. This resource has been created for the delivery of the Activate KS3 Science course. Also great for GCSE Science.

KS3 Science Edexcel Yr7 Revision Spread and Answer Sheet - Chemistry: Topic 7H Atoms, Elements and Molecules.
This A4 revision spread condenses the Edexcel topic 7H onto one A4 sheet which can be printed off and filled in to aid revision and help summarize the topic.
A full answer sheet is provided which can be used to mark the filled in revision spread and can also be used as a revision poster.
Card Sort on definitions and examples of atoms, molecules, elements, compounds & mixtures.
Great as starter, plenary or revision activity.
Card Sort: 25 cards per set

This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Chemistry GCSE, particularly the ‘Atomic Structure & Periodic Table’ SoW.
For more lessons designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience
This lesson begins with student discussing the differences between atoms, compounds & mixtures and writing their ideas down, this is knowledge they should be able to recall from KS3. This is then explored further using an animation with questions that pupils are required to answer. After self-assessment of this task pupils are introduced to the definitions of each: atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures and will need to complete a fill-in-the-blank task to summarise.
Pupils will then be given a selection of diagrams on the board, they will need to determine whether these diagrams are representing elements, compounds or mixtures. Once complete they can self-asses their work using the answers provided.
The next part of the lesson introduces students to the idea of the periodic table, pupils will need to stick in a copy of it and then will be given a task sheet which can be completed using the names and symbols of the elements.
The plenary task is a set of questions about what students have learnt that lesson.
All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)
This activity was designed to teach and then thoroughly assess students understanding to identify elements in compounds, count the number of different elements and atoms and name the compounds. There are 3 powerpoints to use along with information cards and a detailed worksheet activity. This is excellent for KS3 and as revision in KS4.

A KS3 lesson looking at the difference between atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures, how to represent elements as symbols and interpreting the numbers of atoms and elements in a chemical compound. The lesson features:
-An engaging starter task using a video to ascertain students prior ideas around what elements are (Daniel Radcliffe singing 'the elements song')
-Key term and definition match
- Quick multiple choice questions to assess student understanding
- A task using sweets to model atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures including an opportunity for students to explain their arrangements
- A worksheet requiring students to recognise atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures
-An activity to help students recognise element symbols on the periodic table
An activity to practice recognising numbers of atoms and elements in chemical formulae
This ready-to-use cover lesson, based on my atoms, elements, and compounds lesson, allows GCSE students to work independently and develop their understanding of the link between atoms, elements, and compounds through clear explanations and engaging activities. Ideal for unexpected staff absences.
This lesson is the 1st in a series of lessons and covers the content from the AQA GCSE 4.1.1(.1) A simple model of the atom, symbols, relative atomic mass, electronic charge and isotopes topic and OUP Kerboodle GCSE Chemistry Scheme C1.1 Atoms lesson.
Resource includes:
● Teacher guide (Page 1): Clear instructions on what to print (answer sheet & student worksheet) and any additional resources needed (e.g., graph paper, coloured pencils).
● Answer sheet (Page 2): Provides answers to all student worksheet questions, allowing cover teachers to assist students.
● Student worksheet (Pages 3 & 4 - back-to-back):
○ Clear instructions and explanations guide students through the learning objectives independently.
○ Engaging activities and thought-provoking questions promote active learning and understanding.
○ Fully editable - easily adapt the resource to fit the specific needs of your students and the time available.
Benefits:
● Minimal prep: Saves valuable time by providing a complete and ready-to-use lesson resource.
● Independent learning: Allows students to work independently, minimising disruption.
● Fully editable: Easily modify the resource to fit the specific needs of your students.
● Answers: Detailed answer sheets provide guidance for the cover teacher.

Included in the resource:
‘Label the periodic table’ worksheet
‘Key features of the periodic table’ worksheet
Answer sheets for both worksheets
These are useful introductory worksheets for teaching the periodic table.
Worksheet 1:
Students label the periodic table based on the words listed. They must also identify what a ‘group’ is and what a ‘period’ is. Students can also identify which regions of the periodic table are metals, non-metals and metalloids.
Worksheet 2:
Students answer questions on four key regions of the periodic table (alkali metals, halogens, noble gases and transition metals). The questions are based around properties, reactivity and uses.
Please see the preview included. Please note that some of my resources may include American spellings.
Get as many samples of elements as possible and use to introduce the idea that there are different elements and how they differ. A presentation and accompanying worksheets are included. Test tubes of air can be labelled as gases etc. If needed
This Power Point presentation explain
* The concept of atom and the failure of Aristotle Theory
* Alchemy and Modern chemistry
* Elements
* Name and facts about elements
This is a short revision resource for AQA core chemistry and is ideal for revision purposes or homework to consolidate learning, I used this with a low ability yr 11 group for a revision session. please use this resource but could I please have feedback .
