An engaging lesson which looks at the properties of the Transition metals of the Periodic Table and ultimately compares these properties against other metals, such as the Alkali metals. Through the use of a range of motivating tasks and quiz competitions, students will learn that the transition metals form coloured compounds, have a number of ion charges, act as catalysts and are harder, stronger but less reactive than group 1.
This lesson has been written for GCSE students (14 - 16 year olds) but is suitable for younger students who are looking at the patterns and trends in the Periodic Table

Topic C5: Separate Chemistry 1 (Edexcel GCSE Chemistry)
This bundle of 12 lessons covers a lot of the content in Topic C5 (Separate Chemistry 1) of the Edexcel GCSE Chemistry specification. The topics covered within these lessons include: The transition metals Alloys Concentration of solutions Acid-alkali titration Titration calculations Calculating the percentage yield Calculating the atom economy Molar volume The Haber Process Factors and the position of equilibrium Choosing reaction conditions All of these lesson presentations and accompanying resources are detailed and engaging and contain regular progress checks to allow the students to constantly assess their understanding.
The Periodic Table
This bundle of 7 lessons is ideal for students who are learning about the Periodic Table as part of KS3 or for their GCSE studies. The lessons include details of how the early Periodic Table was formed by Dmitri Mendeleev and how electron configurations relate to the position of elements in the Table and there are detailed lessons about the properties of group 1, 7 and 0 and the transition metals.
Topic C9: The Periodic Table (Cambridge iGCSE Science Double Award)
This bundle of 6 lessons covers all of the content in Topic C9 (The Periodic Table) of the core and supplement sections of the Cambridge iGCSE Science Double Award specification. The topics and specification points covered within these lessons include: * The Periodic Table as a method of classifying elements and its use to predict properties * Describe the relationship between group number and outer shell electrons * Describe and predict the properties of the Group 1 elements * Describe the properties and reactions of the Group 7 elements * The transition elements * The noble gases All of these lesson presentations and accompanying resources are detailed and engaging and contain regular progress checks to allow the students to constantly assess their understanding
