Excellent, clear and detailed illustration of how ions are formed. Explains bonding theory and electron structure. Includes several animated worked examples of positive and negative ion formation for different elements, plus test questions to aid understanding. Concludes with the formation of sodium chloride. Clear diagrams and animations throughout.

Introduction to refining and polymerisation. An onscreen cloze/labelling activity written in Excel; it ticks each word as students get them correct. Students like it because it gives immediate feedback. I've used it with all ability groups at GCSE. If you want to work out how it's done, the password to unprotect it is 'teachable'. Save as a template to stop students overwriting the original.

PowerPoint with animations showing several examples of ionic bonding. Lots of dot cross diagrams to explain how atoms lose or gain electrons to become ions. It includes Giant Ionic structures and physical properties. [10 Slides]. This resource would be complemented well by the resource: "Ions plenary".

One of my earlier, but no less effective, interactive PowerPoints. Pupils click or touch the correct element on the periodic table that correponds to the question. Correct answers are rewarded with a WOO-HOO from Homer. Great for a plenary on atomic/proton number, groups, electron shells.

Contributor:

A revision activity for students who don't like writing but like a bit of colouring! Students open it within powerpoint to edit the slides before viewing as a slideshow. I've used it with very weak KS4 groups. It can easily be edited to suit any syllabus: exercises cover bonding, compounds, the Periodic Table, calculating molar mass of compounds etc. An answer powerpoint is provided.
