A fully resourced enjoyable and comprehensive lesson on elements, compounds, atoms, molecules, formulae and naming compounds plus board game for middle school science. 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. Mono = 1, di = 2, tri = 3.

The simulated practicals take the student through planning, designing a table and drawing conclusions from a given set of typical results. Objective To know: that switches open and close circuits; that one switch controls all the components in a series circuit; that components can be controlled individually by switches in a parallel circuit; how to position switches correctly in simple and complex parallel circuits. To know that: current is a flow of electrons; metal ions cause resistance in a conductor; electrons collide with the metal ions and loose energy which is converted to heat or light; the more metal ions the higher the resistance; collisions with metal ions reduce current; the higher the resistance the lower the current; the comparative resistance of long/short and thick/thin wires R = V/I Be able to: apply ohms law in simple calculations; apply ohms law in calculations having deduced the values for V and I using prior knowledge of series and parallel circuits; explain the use of materials in devices according to their resistance. Resources An animated PowerPoint which guides the student through the lesson by: explaining how to use distance learning effectively; explaining how to use this resource; explaining current, voltage and resistance and the relationship between them; providing the answers to all the worksheets so that the students can mark and correct their work. Four worksheets, and two cut-out activities, the answers to which are in the PowerPoint. A foldable and cut-out activity so that students can record and organise their learning. A checklist for students to use to assess their progress. For those students without internet or a computer or a computer at home a condensed printable copy of the PowerPoint is provided for distribution by school. Ways to Use this Resource Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet. Students print their own worksheets. Upload PowerPoint and worksheets to school intranet and provide a hardcopy of worksheets for students. Those families who do not wish to collect worksheets or who are in isolation can print the worksheets at home. Students without photocopying facilities are instructed to write their answers in full sentences and to writs a sentence to describe any circuit diagrams drawn.
