'If you keep trying the same old things, you'll keep getting the same old results'. Imaginative teaching ideas help stimulate students and improve student retention. I don't claim to be an expert but I hope that some of my ideas will help other teachers.

GCSE Science Periodic Table Revision Activity

(0)
This is an activity that I have used with my Y11 students during their revision. It can be used in a number of ways. The general instructions of how to use it are: 1. Print off the power point slides (2 to a page works well) 2. Set up some tables and outline the shape of the periodic table 3. Put on the labels for the groups and the periods in the correct places 4. Write on a few elements 5. Give each student an element card which gives them a range of things they need to work out about the element as a starter 6. Ask the students to place their element where they think it should be 7. Use the question cards as a basis for a discussion about the periodic table (there are around 25 question cards so most students will be asked at least one thing. There is lots in the power point and it can easily be differentiated Thanks for looking

This originally was a resource designed to be used over 3 lessons to prepare students to take the 2015 P3 exam as a mock. The lessons are based around a series of activities designed to engage students rather than reteaching them the content. For each activity there is a short tick list of what students need to know to help them identify where they still need to revise. The activities include: X-ray & ultra sound battle ships Electromagnetic induction micro-teaching The eye snakes & ladders CT scanner question matrix Refractive index card sort Pendulum data analysis activity Hydraulic question race Transformers 7 monkey activity Thanks for looking
