A simple wordsearch on 1 side of A4. It is quite a challenge! For GCSE chemists. ( I have now removed an error which had two letters in one box and one box with a space. I had to make it bigger and spread the puzzle onto two sides, one side with clues and one with the puzzle grid. Apologies to those who bought the defective version- contact me for a replacement)

Double click on the ‘skeleton.html’ file, et voila. Drag the labels to the correct place. As AFL around the whiteboard, or individual revision at a computer. The smiley face makes it more endearing.

After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

Electronic configuration and atomic structure Drag & Drop

A Drag & Drop exercise for building up the electronic structure of atoms. After a short cartoon for building up an atom of calcium, students build up four atoms by drag and drop. Could be used projected on the whiteboard or by students individually at computers. Double click on the full atomic structure.html file and it will open in your browser. I made it big for projection, but it can be made smaller by zooming out using the browser zoom control.
