Three comprehensive and fully resourced lessons on particle (kinetic) theory of matter, the composition and properties of mixtures and separating mixtures for middle school. To consolidate learning, or for test prep, there are three enjoyable and challenging games – smart board bingo, a board game and an escape room. Each teaching pack contains between thirteen and eighteen resources and it is intended that the teacher uses them to build their own unique lesson to take account of student ability and time available. Literacy, oracy, self-assessment and peer assessment are all built in to the resources. These features are clearly marked on the comprehensive one-page flow chart lesson plan which shows where the logical choices between resources can be made. There are three differentiated and engaging homeworks which can also be used as classwork if so desired. The games are closely related to the topic content and reinforce learning. What’s Covered Three states of matter are solid, liquid and gas. Arrangement of particles in solids, liquids and gases. Properties of solids, liquids and gases in terms of the arrangement of their particles. Change of state including sublimation. Pressure in gases and the effect of increasing the number of particles and temperature and decreasing volume. Diffusion. Elements and compounds are pure substance and mixtures are not. Meaning of the terms solute, solvent, solution, soluble and insoluble. Particle theory to explain why stirring, temperature and particle size affect the rate of dissolving. Particle theory to explain dissolving, suspensions and saturated solutions. Extracting information from solubility curves. The composition and physical properties of mixtures Evaporation to dryness and crystallisation Distillation Fractional distillation Filtration Chromatography What’s Included For Each Lesson Animated PowerPoint for teaching with exit ticket quiz Flip it (pupil writes questions to given answers) Anticipation Guides (combined starter and plenary) Foldable Cut and stick activity. Worksheet to support the PowerPoint (x3) Fact sheet Homework plus answers Fact share worksheet Pupil progress self-assessment checklist Exit Ticket Suggested lesson plan showing choices possible between resources Escape Room PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer); crossword; word search; dominoes activity; worksheet; code breaker sheet; answers; lesson plan.

Three fully resourced lessons taking the learner from an understanding of atoms and molecules through elements and compounds, chemical symbols and formulae and finally to naming compounds and balancing chemical equations. The review lesson is a useful pre-test toll which produces an individual review list for each pupil The versatile games pack can be used to reinforce each section of the current electricity module as it is taught or for revision. Many of the games could be used for cover lessons, even when taken by a non-specialist as they come with a hard-copy or PowerPoint of the answers. It is also the ideal end of term/year pack. What’s Covered All atoms of one element are the same but are different from the atoms of other elements. Atoms combine to form molecules. If combining atoms are from the same element, a molecule of an element is formed. If combining atoms are from different element, a molecule of a compound is formed. An element contains only one type of atom A compound contains two or more different types of atom. Elements are listed in the periodic table. Each element has its own symbol. Symbols can be the first letter of the name (capital), two letters from the name (capital then lowercase) or taken from the Latin name of the element. The formula of a compound tells you how many atoms of each element are in it. Working out the number of atoms of each element in a compound from its formula. Naming compounds with the groups CO3, SO4, NO3. Compounds containing only two atoms end in ide. Mono = 1, di = 2, tri = 3. Conservation of mass. Balancing equations What’s Included – Teaching Materials and Printables Animated PowerPoints for teaching with exit ticket quiz Answer/mark scheme PowerPoints Flip its (pupil writes questions to given answers) Anticipation Guides (combined starter and plenary) Foldables Worksheets to support the PowerPoints Fact sheets Homework plus answers (x3) Fact share worksheets Pupil progress self-assessment checklists Periodic table Exit Ticket Suggested lesson plans showing choices possible between resources Games Included Atoms and Molecules Find the Pair Dominoes Elements and Compounds Smart Board Bingo Forces Board Game Dominoes Find the Pair Save the School Librarian Escape Room For more high quality resources visit: Elf Off the Shelf Resources

To consolidate learning, there are three sets of enjoyable and challenging games which can be played after each lesson is taught with the content of each set of three games being closely related to the content of one of the lesson topics. Find the pair Dominoes Wildcard/Snap. At the end of the module, to further reinforce learning or for test prep, there are another three enjoyable and challenging games which test facts taught throughout the complete module.
