ATOMIC BLAST is a super fun game that teaches concepts of ionic and covalent bonding as well as formula writing, counting atoms, and predicting unfamiliar compounds. Players build ionic and covalent compounds from clues on the game cards in their hand. For each compound built, the player then counts the total atoms from the formula and enters that number on the Yahtzee®-like score card. Game cards can be printed in color or black and white (grayscale) or you can print the line art version for your students to color themselves. Students can fold and cut out the the game cards and assemble the Compound Reference Charts. Heavy bond paper or card stock is recommended but regular paper will work as well. The game is designed for 2-4 players so make as many sets of the game as you need for your students. Complete game instructions are included along with tips on developing advanced strategies. Also included are tutorials for building ionic and covalent compounds and counting atoms from a compound’s formula. Atomic Blast is easy enough for beginners to play at a basic level yet will challenge more experienced players as they develop advanced strategies. The more your students play the more they will learn. The best part is that they just think they are having fun! See more details at https://www.gonyoscience.com/atomic-blast-game

The Periodic Table Game will keep your students engaged for hours as they race across the Periodic Table of Elements to be the first to reach Element 118, Oganesson. In groups of 2-4 players, students will present each other with Element Game Cards and provide clues as needed. Depending upon the number of clues needed to identify the Element, a player will advance along the Periodic Table. If a player lands on certain spaces (Elements) they must pick an Atomic Card which can cause them to lose a turn, move forward or backward, or send them clear across the Periodic Table! Questions are designed to challenge all age levels because clues get progressively easier giving more value to identifying the Element with fewer clues. The game is designed to make mastery difficult so students can play over and over and still be challenged. If they ever do master the Periodic Table, that would be a really good problem to have! The Game Board and Game cards work best if printed on card stock but regular paper will also work. The Game Board is assembled from four sheets and has a finished size of 15 x 20.5 inches. Students can help color, cut out, fold, and glue the 118 Element Game Cards and the 52 Atomic Cards. Students can choose from 9 different 3 dimensional Game Tokens to assemble with a weighted base (a nickel works great).

Your students will love coloring, cutting out, and assembling these 3D atomic models of all 118 chemical elements to make a beautiful and lasting display for your classroom. Each atomic model comes with it's own information tag including element symbol, properties and uses, atomic number, atomic mass, and much more. From this information tag students determine the number of protons, neutrons, electrons, and the electron configuration for each atomic model. A complete written assembly guide is included as well as an assembly video. You and your students will love the stunning visual display you will have created with atomic models of all 118 chemical elements hanging from your classroom ceiling. The models will also serve to help students understand the structure of atoms and the relationship between atomic mass and the relative sizes of atoms. If models in your classroom display should become lost or damaged during summer cleaning, next year’s students will be more than happy to replace them for you! All templates can be printed on regular 8 1/2 by 11 paper but heavier card stock is highly recommended for a permanent display. Building Atomic Models is a perfect companion to "Building a Periodic Table" (found in my TES store). Materials needed: Glue Scissors Ruler Plastic knife for scoring Colored pencils Tape String Card Stock for printing templates (recommended) Files included with this product: Building Atomic Models templates (PDF) Assembly Instructions (PDF) Assembly Video (MP4) (also available on YouTube)
