Word searches help concentrate on scientific literacy and aid concentration. they are good summary activities and for revision. I have tried to make this attractive and efficacious in that it uses only one side of A4. A solution is provided.
This is a simple worksheet about writing word equations for neutralisation reactions. It covers 2 pages.
There are plenty of examples, which get harder as you go on. There is an accompanying powerpoint, as an additional download…
NB I am well aware that exam boards, RSC and text books regard acid plus metal to be a redox reaction, which of course it is. However, in such a reaction, the pH increases to neutral and the acid has gone, so I think it can properly be regarded as neutralization of an acid. And since this worksheet is really about naming salts, I had to include it.
Use on whiteboard or computers, double click on ear.html and it opens in your browser. Drag the labels to the correct places. Maybe print out the results for revision.
Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my drag & drop resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.
A cut and stick exercise to help reinforce this very important concept. Students cut out the pieces and arrange the pieces to give the correct mechanism. Prepares students for those five mark questions where they often lose marks. Other mechanisms to come plus drag and drop versions, so watch this space…
This is a variation of my ‘drag and drop functional group’ activity. In this case you drag the structural formula to the correct name of the functional group. If it is correct it will stick, otherwise it won’t. Could be used around the whiteboard as a quick AFL.
This is a simple html5 document- simply double click on the html file and it will load in your web browser.
(nb because the table is long, you may have to zoom out in your web browser to complete.)

A simple, photocopiable worksheet (black and white!) that gives practice at interpreting simple chemical formulae. The examples get harder as you proceed. It is comprised of two pages of examples. It is suitable for KS3 and KS4 students. It could be used in class or for homework.
