This Christmas Chemistry Resource set is all about drawing atoms and counting subatomic particles. The resource includes: 20 Atom baubles (first 20 elements: hydrogen to calcium). Students must work out the number of each type of subatomic particle in the atom and write it in the middle of the bauble. They must also draw the electronic structure. Instruction sheet (outlining what a student must do with their bauble). A subatomic particle information sheet (how to count subatomic particles in atoms using the periodic table). A drawing electronic structure information sheet (outlining electron shells and occupancy rules) This festive resource can be used to make christmas baubles to take home or as a class project e.g. . . . each student finishes their bauble and attaches it to a class christmas tree or a clamp stand full of clamps to resemble a ‘chemistree!’ (Designed to print in A4 with 2 baubles per page)

Atomic Structure Bunting Classroom Display

(0)
ATOMIC STRUCTURE BUNTING Included in this resource: 20 bunting triangles - 1 triangle for each of the first 20 elements in the periodic table (hydrogen to calcium included). Students must use a period table to help them fill in the numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons. They can then add the electrons to the correct electron shells. When I have used this previously, I have given each student a triangle to complete independently. They have then cut out their triangle and connected it to the class bunting chain. This makes for a collaborative group activity, resulting in a bold bunting classroom decoration which students can be really proud of. The document is print ready and saved in an A4 format. The document is black and white due to printing purposes, so you may choose to print on colored paper to give a nice effect when it is hung up in your classroom.

History of the Atom Revision Game

History of the Atom Revision Game

(1)
History of the Atomic Theory Revision Resource This resource encompasses the five atomic models through history. Students use the spin wheel to select one of the models at random. They then must answer the three key questions on this model: What is the atomic model called? Which scientist proposed the atomic model? Describe three key features of the atomic model Once students have answered the questions, they can check their answers using the comprehensive answer sheet. They can also record if they got their answers correct on the ‘repeat and tick’ sheet. This encourages students to use the spin wheel as an ongoing revision resource, aiming to reach the ‘know it’ level. The atomic models featured include: John Dalton (sphere model) J J Thompson (plum pudding model) Ernest Rutherford (nuclear modle) Neils Bohr (planetary model) Erwin Schrodinger (quantum model) Also included in the resource is an instructions sheet, with helpful guidance on using the spin wheel as a revision tool. 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.
