XL Domino – Chemical Elements 1–118 An interactive domino game for exploring element names and symbols 🧪🎲 This printable XL domino game offers a fun and flexible way for students to practice the names and symbols of all 118 chemical elements. Designed for use in grades 7–10, this resource supports both introductory lessons and ongoing review in chemistry class. Whether used in small groups, as a full-class activity, or even spread out along the hallway floor, it encourages active learning and collaboration. Each card features either the name or the symbol of a chemical element. By matching these correctly, students build a long domino chain – all while reinforcing their knowledge of atomic numbers, symbols, and the layout of the periodic table. What’s included: 238 printable domino cards (PDF format) Two complete versions of the game (119 cards each): – Beginner version: element names on both sides – Advanced version: name on one side, symbol on the other Covers all elements from hydrogen (1) to oganesson (118) Tips for setup and gameplay included How I’ve used it: This game works well before introducing the periodic table in depth. It gives students time to get comfortable with element names and symbols in a low-pressure setting. The larger card format makes it ideal for group work or movement-based activities, such as arranging the cards on the floor or in the hallway. Why it works: The visual repetition and active gameplay help students internalize key facts more effectively than passive memorization. Group dynamics also support peer learning – students naturally help each other recall unfamiliar elements. And because it feels like a game, students stay engaged longer and show more willingness to participate. The material is easy to prepare: print, laminate if you like, and cut out the cards. From there, you can adapt it for differentiated learning levels or turn it into a competitive classroom challenge. This is not just a game – it’s a versatile teaching tool that brings the periodic table to life. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

This fully editable Lab Station on The Particle Theory and the Classification of Matter is meant to get your students out of their seats and engaged in the content. Each station not only offers a unique opportunity to test your students' knowledge (offer an opinion, answer questions based on a video or reading, draw, etc.), but also provides a fantastic learning opportunity where your kids are learning through assessment. Each station comes with a description card while some also contain more detailed instructions, a reading, questions to answer, etc. Students are equipped with a recording sheet (passport) to write their answers. There is almost no prep for you. Simply print the cards, lay them out around the room and you're all set. An answer key is also provided where applicable. This lab activity covers: - The particle theory - Matter classification - Mixtures --> Homogeneous (solutions) --> Heterogeneous (mechanical mixtures) - Pure substances --> Elements --> Compounds How do the Lab Stations work? Each station is specially designed to be a unique complement to the material while at the same time, provide a valuable learning experience. Below is an overview of how each station works. In your activity , each will be tailored to the specific content. Station 1: Get Hands-On – using their creative skills, students are required to draw or build. Station 2: Research – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must research a specific question/issue surrounding the topic. Station 3: Explain yourself – students write down an opinion to a question in paragraph form. Station 4: Rest Station - students can use this time to catch up on work they didn't have time to complete at a previous station or prepare themselves for an upcoming one. Station 5 - Applicability reading – students read a short passage from an article, website, etc. which directly connects the classroom content to a real life application. Station 6: Test your knowledge – students answer 5 multiple choice questions then provide a written explanation for how/why they came to their conclusions. Station 7: Learn from the expert – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must watch a short video clip and answer the associated questions. They may stop, rewind and restart as often as they like during the time frame. Station 8 - Rest Station. Station 9: Become the question master – Students must create 2 multiple-choice questions, 2 true/false questions and 1 short answer question. Students must also supply the answers. ------------------------------- You might also be interested in my other lab station activities Physics: • Newton's Three Laws of Motion • Kinetic and Gravitational Potential Energy • Current Electricity and Circuit Diagrams • Static Electricity • Light Optics and the Production of Light • Sound, Sound Energy and Speed • One and Two-Dimensional Motion • Uniform Acceleration • How Planes Fly • Refraction • Friction • Energy and Its Forms • Density and Buoyancy • Electricity Production Coming Soon: - Calculating average speed, velocity, and displacement - Work = F x d - Renewable energy sources - Nonrenewable energy sources Space Science: • The Life and Death of Stars • The Moon and its Phases • Life In Space • Our Solar System • Solar and Lunar Eclipse • Earth's Seasons • Asteroids, Comets and Meteors Ecology and the Environment: • Ecosystems • The Classification of Living Things • Biodiversity and Invasive Species • The Carbon and Water Cycle • Climate Change • Photosynthesis • Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis • Ecological Succession • Plant Sexual and Asexual Reproduction • Earth's Seasons • Interactions Within Ecosystems Biology: • Cell and the Cell Theory • The Human Digestive System • The Circulatory System • The Human Respiratory System • Mitosis and the Cell Cycle • Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis • Photosynthesis • Cancer: Cell Division Gone Wrong - Volume I • Cancer: Cell Division Gone Wrong - Volume II • Cell Membrane and Transport • Hearing and the Human Ear • The Human Eye • Genetic Material: DNA and RNA • The Nervous System • Energy Flow In Ecosystems Coming Soon: - Excretory system - Endocrine system Chemistry: • Atomic Model, Notation and Atoms • Chemical Reactions and Balancing Equations • Molecular and Ionic Compounds • Physical and Chemical Properties & Changes • Acids, Bases, and Neutralization Reactions • The Periodic Table • Single and Double Displacement Reactions • Balancing Chemical Equations • Synthesis, Decomposition and Combustion Reactions • Atomic Theory, Atomic Structure and Isotopes • Types of Bonds and Intermolecular Forces • The Mole/Avogadro's Number • Density and Buoyancy • The Particle Theory and the Classification of Matter Coming Soon: - Counting atoms - Periodic table group properties These station cards are meant to be used as a lab activity but can also be utilized in a review task before a test or a quiz.

The package includes handouts, notes, diagrams , practice questions, a review, and answer key. How to Use: Print a 7 page package for each of your students. Present pages 1-4 on an interactive whiteboard and teach your students the basics of correlation (scatterplots, positive correlation, negative correlation, correlation coefficients, mistaking correlation as causation, media examples, reverse causation, third variables, etc.) as they fill in questions and notes. Then, students can do the practice questions on their own or in small groups (answer key included). Next, present page 6 to explain how to actually find causation in a true experiment : random selection, random assignment, dependent variable, independent variable, experimental group, control group, etc. Finally, students complete a one-page review (answer key included) Grades to Use With: This lesson was designed to be accessible to students as young as grade six all the way through high school. It could be an addition to a science unit about experimental methods, a science fair unit, a grade 8 math unit about scatter plots, or even a psychology class. Standards: CCSS8.SP.A.1 Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association. CCSS8.SP.A.2 Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
