This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Chemistry GCSE, particularly the 'Atomic Structure & Periodic Table' SoW.
For more lessons designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience
This lesson begins with student discussing the differences between atoms, compounds & mixtures and writing their ideas down, this is knowledge they should be able to recall from KS3. This is then explored further using an animation with questions that pupils are required to answer. After self-assessment of this task pupils are introduced to the definitions of each: atoms, elements, compounds and mixtures and will need to complete a fill-in-the-blank task to summarise.
Pupils will then be given a selection of diagrams on the board, they will need to determine whether these diagrams are representing elements, compounds or mixtures. Once complete they can self-asses their work using the answers provided.
The next part of the lesson introduces students to the idea of the periodic table, pupils will need to stick in a copy of it and then will be given a task sheet which can be completed using the names and symbols of the elements.
The plenary task is a set of questions about what students have learnt that lesson.
All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)
