Printable crossword reviewing key ideas for States of Matter
An optional word bank and answers are included.
A4 and letter paper versions included.
Suitable for
* KS3 science
* Common Entrance
* US Middle School science
In this card sort activity, students will match the question or image at the bottom of each card to the correct answer at the top of another card, arranging the cards like dominoes. When arranged correctly, the cards will make a closed loop
To prepare the activity, print the pages onto cardstock and cut along the solid lines. DO NOT cut the dotted lines. Cards can be laminated if desired and stored easily for multiple uses. The cards are given in order on the template and a numbered version is given for use by students for self-checking if needed.
This activity is an ideal stater, plenary or revision game to review:
the definitions for element, compound, atom and molecule,
to identifying elements, compounds and mixtures from particle diagrams (your students will need to know how to recognise particle models of elements and compounds and the simple formulae for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water, oxygen and methane)
decoding chemical formulae
the structure of the atom.
This activity is an ideal stater, plenary or revision game to review the organelles found in animal and plant cells. Suitable for KS3, when introductions to GCSE Chemistry and Common Entrance syllabuses.

In this card sort activity, students sort triangular cards by matching the phrases and chemical reactions. When sorted correctly, the cards will form a pyramid shape.
To prepare the activity, print the pages onto cardstock and cut out the triangular cards.Cards can be laminated if desired and stored easily for multiple uses. The cards are given in order on the template and a numbered version is given for by students for self-checking if needed.
This activity is an ideal stater, plenary or revision game to review the organelles found in animal and plant cells.
Students will need to have covered:
pH
acid + hydroxide
acid + metal oxide
acid + metal
acid + carbonate
alkali metal + water
gas tests: carbon dioxide, oxygen, hydrogen
displacement reactions
extracting iron (REDOX), ores
simple rates of reaction (temperature, concentration)
Suitable for KS3 and Common Entrance syllabuses.
