These sequence of PowerPoint slides cover section 1.1 Atomic Structure of the AQA GCSE Chemistry Spec.
They have been carefully adapted over several years to take into account current pedagogical research and designed to be used with a wide range of abilities.
There is an emphasis on the tasks for students to learn by applying knowledge rather than making a lot of notes.
Starters are typically retrieval style questions and in later lessons are scaffolded so that all can attempt.

This formed part of an A2 revion session of model exam questions.
Exam questions answered surrounded:
Colour in transition metal complexes.
Recrystallisation.
Titrations.
Concentrations & colorimetry.
N.B.
The maths in chemistry section applies to the calculations for A-Level chemistry book by Jim Clark of 'chemguide.com' http://www.amazon.co.uk/Calculations-AS-A-Level-Chemistry/dp/0582411270.
Designed as lesson 1 (Atomic Structure) for AQA GCSE Chemistry (probably year 9)
Spec 1.1.1: Atoms elements and compounds
Lesson preparation:
New exercise books for students
Print periodic tables on slide 3
Optionally print exam style questions on slide 22
Suggested teaching:
Slide 4: Use this task to establish understanding of the particle model, as an introduction to what is in a particle. Look out for poor representation of liquids.
Slide 5: You could use this old school video to introduce the model of the atom, get them to watch it and the question them of the features of sub-atomic particles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhbqIJZ8wCM&ab_channel=TheButtonLady
Slides 11-17: A sequence of tasks to get students to apply the important definitions that they will come across in this lesson.
Slide 18: This gap fill could be used with weaker students to practice recall. Avoid letting students just copy definitions that they may have written down earlier. Alternatively they could create / quiz each other using flashcards.
Slide 20: These questions are designed to highlight any misconceptions about particles moving on further into this topic.
Feel free to tweet me @Chemeducation is you have any questions or ideas!
