These files contains six word-searches each listing approximately 20 chemical elements which the student will be asked to find in the grid. There is a printable sheet for the student and a solution sheet, highlighting the names, for the teacher. To make the names easier to locate I have highlighted the first letter of each element in yellow, or orange when the letter begins two names running in different directions. I have included two versions, one in PDF and the second an Excel file, whichever is your preference.

This file contains six worksheets and the aim of the exercise is to name the chemical elements represented by the chemical symbols shown. Each test begins with a blank sheet and after entering X into the blue square the first symbol will appear. The name of the chemical element should then be typed into the space alongside. Once all 20 symbols have been identified the score will come into view, together with the time taken.

These files contains six criss-cross puzzles, all made up using names of Chemical elements. In each puzzle the student will be asked to name the chemical elements to match the symbols listed, and then enter these into the matching numbered squares in the grid. Each puzzle contains a printable sheet for the student and a solution sheet for the teacher. I have included two versions, one in PDF and the second an Excel file, whichever is your preference.
