A Powerpoint file comprising four interactive drag and drop activities to learn the first 20 elements of the periodic table, practice simple atomic configuration and common polyatomic ions. Can be used as a whole class activity on an interactive whiteboard or by individual students, as the activities score and correct the student responses.

A bingo game where pupils have to match the name of the element to the symbol on their bingo card. Print off the bingo cards and dish out to the students in groups of 2 or 3. Use the Excel file to display random elements. Remember to click "Enable Macros" when prompted on Excel and click on the "Who will it be button" to generate a random element.

A card game designed to reinforce and consolidate students' understanding of displacement reactions of the halogens. The rules are similar to whist with students a pair of cards if a reaction would occur. The game usually prompts much student discussion about the reactions. There is a set of cards to print out, and a teacher sheet with instructions about how to play.

This is a game where students are presented with the name of an element and have to "shoot" the correct symbol. It is set in a space and the symbols fly towards the spaceship as meteors! Students have two minutes to shoot as many correct symbols as possible.

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.

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.

This presentation summarises the physical and chemical properties of the alkali metals. It contains interactive slides for class questions and particle diagrams to show the reactions with oxygen, chlorine and water. The ppt finishes with a summary activity. I have used this as a whole lesson with a teacher demonstration of the alkali metals and have found that students understand the work well.

Clear presentation about the main features of Group 7, concentrating on physical properties, electron and molecular structure, trends in reactivity, and uses. Second resource provides a lesson structure for an experiment to investigate displacement reactions of the Halogens using Potassium halide and halide water. Results are summarized and used to identify the trend in reactivity.
