Rules of the Game
Each player selects seven dominos from the top of the face-down pile and holds them in their hand like playing cards.
The player whose surname begins with a letter closest to the letter A starts and play proceed in a clockwise direction.
Dominos can be matched exactly, or a name can be matched with a symbol or descriptions, sketches and circuit diagrams can be matched.
If a player thinks a match is wrong, they can challenge. If the challenger is correct, they give a card from their own hand to the challenged player. If the challenged player is correct, they give a card from their hand to the challenger. Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer and consult their teacher if a consensus is not reached.
If a player cannot play a domino, they pick up from the face down pile and can play if possible or add it to their hand.

Mixtures Solutions and Suspensions Find the Pair Game KS3
This is an engaging and enjoyable memory game on mixtures, including solutions, suspensions, dissolving, saturated solutions and solubility. Pupils work in teams of three or four. Each team lays out their 42 cards face down in a square and take it in turn to turn over two cards. If the cards are a question and its correct answer, the pupil keeps the pair. If they are not a match they are turned face down and the next pupil gets a turn. This process continues until all cards are matched and the winner is the pupil with the most pairs.
If a team member thinks that the selectors pair is not a correct match, they can challenge.
Pupils are encouraged to check their books for the correct answer but the teacher also has a quick-check answer sheet. If the challenge is correct, the challenger keeps the pair.

Convex lenses are used in magnifying glasses, telescopes and spectacles to correct long sight.
Concave lenses are used in lasers, flashlights, peepholes and spectacles to correct short sight.
Label the following structures on a diagram of the eye; retina; ciliary muscle; iris; pupil; lens; suspensory ligament; optic nerve.
Draw ray diagrams and explain how the eye sees distant and close objects.
Draw ray diagrams and explain how lenses are used to correct long and short sight.
Draw diagrams and explain how the iris controls the size of the pupil and therefore the amount of light which enters the eye.
Draw a ray diagram of the pinhole camera, know that the image is inverted sand diminished, moving the object closer enlarges the image and multiple pinholes produce multiple images
Label a diagram of the camera and explain how a picture is taken.

What’s Covered
All atoms of one element are the same but are different from the atoms of other elements.
Atoms combine to form molecules.
If combining atoms are from the same element, a molecule of an element is formed.
If combining atoms are from different element, a molecule of a compound is formed.
An element contains only one type of atom
A compound contains two or more different types of atom.
Elements are listed in the periodic table.
Each element has its own symbol.
Symbols can be the first letter of the name (capital), two letters from the name (capital then lowercase) or taken from the Latin name of the element.
The formula of a compound tells you how many atoms of each element are in it.
Working out the number of atoms of each element in a compound from its formula.
Naming compounds with the groups CO3, SO4, NO3.
Compounds containing only two atoms end in ide.
