The game follows the well-known “I have… who has?” format and is designed to reinforce students’ understanding of element names, symbols, and atomic numbers in a playful and interactive way. To support different learning levels, the material includes three differentiated versions of the full game, each with 118 element cards: With element names for both question and answer (beginner level) Only the “I have…” part includes the name , the question uses the symbol/number (intermediate level) Without element names – players must match based on symbol and atomic number alone (advanced level) Each version builds on the last and can be used flexibly depending on students' prior knowledge. The game works best with medium to large groups and encourages students to listen carefully, stay engaged, and support one another. What’s included: 3 full card sets (118 cards per set = 354 total) Differentiated by content and level of language support Clear instructions for printing, laminating, and use Ideal for individual, pair, or group work How I use it in class: I’ve played this game both at the end of a chemistry unit and as a fun opener when starting the periodic table. It’s also perfect for substitute lessons or for classes with mixed ability levels. Since each student needs to be ready when their card comes up, it fosters attention and collaboration. This is one of those games where learning happens almost by accident – students are so focused on playing that they internalize atomic numbers and symbols without even noticing. A simple, engaging way to bring structure, repetition, and movement into chemistry class – no extra prep needed. If you're looking for an easy way to help students become more confident with the periodic table, this might be worth trying in your classroom. Best, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially (+ PDF Version) Bring lab safety to life with this interactive quiz on the GHS (Globally Harmonized System) hazard symbols – perfect for middle and high school chemistry lessons. Whether you're starting the unit or wrapping up a safety review, this quiz adds variety, visual appeal, and a bit of fun to your lesson plan. You’ll get two versions of the quiz: – A PDF version that can be used digitally or printed (but it works not well) – A Genially link that leads to an animated, interactive version (includes sound – which can be muted) Both versions test students on the meanings of the various GHS symbols – from corrosive substances to environmental hazards. The quiz includes original clipart and my own glitter-animated GHS symbols to make the content more visually appealing without distracting from the important safety message. I usually use the Genially quiz for individual work in the computer lab or on tablets, so each student can go at their own pace. But it also works well as a station activity , a class-wide quiz , or even as homework , depending on your classroom setup. At the end of the PDF, you’ll find: A QR code to scan directly to the Genially A clickable link for browser access An iframe embed code , if you want to use it on your (non-commercial) learning platform Attention: The interactive PDF does not contain the full scope of the material. The quiz works. Unfortunately, the additional tasks do not. Using Genially is therefore recommended and much more motivating for the pupils. For the interactive quiz you need an internet connection and a terminal device. The quiz can be carried out with the whole class or as partner or individual work. I prefer individual work at each student's own pace. To get to the Genially link, either scan the QR code at the end of the document or click on the link button available there. You can also copy the iframe code and embed the Genially on a learning platform or other... The Genially can be used either at the beginning of the topic or as a backup. It is also worth using as a station in station work. The interactive version includes motivating sound effects , a self-paced structure , and a clear, age-appropriate design for grades 7–10. 📌 Important note : The Genially quiz is protected by copyright. It’s for your own classroom use only . Please don’t share the link or embed it outside a private, secure learning environment. Sharing with colleagues, online platforms, or social media is not permitted. I hope your students enjoy reviewing GHS symbols as much as mine do! – Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier – Exploring the Father of Modern Chemistry A structured reading and worksheet resource for grades 8–10 (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📚 A printable and digital resource for grades 8–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This classroom resource gives students the chance to learn about Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier, the scientist often referred to as the “father of modern chemistry.” Known for his work on the conservation of mass and his role in naming elements like oxygen and hydrogen, Lavoisier helped shape the way we think about matter and chemical reactions today. The material combines a clear, student-friendly text with structured tasks to support understanding and engagement. It’s designed to be flexible enough for regular science lessons, independent study, or even substitute teaching—no special background knowledge is needed. What’s included: Informational text about the life and work of Antoine Lavoisier Profile worksheet for summarizing key points Quiz questions with complete answer key Two optional follow-up activities: – Students write their own questions based on the text – Partner exchange and answer Formats: – PDF (print or digital use) – Editable DOCX (text only, no design) – H5P (interactive version for digital platforms, no images) In the classroom: This resource works well alongside lessons on chemical reactions, the law of conservation of mass, or the history of scientific discovery. I’ve used it both as an introduction to a new unit and as a quiet reading activity when students needed structured but independent work. The H5P version is especially useful for blended learning or homework, allowing students to check their answers and work at their own pace. A practical way to link modern scientific concepts to one of their earliest thinkers—with no extra prep required. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students!
