Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grade
STEM, Science, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Flashcards, Projects, Presentations, Graphic Organizers
Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grades 7–10 Learn Alkali Metals - visual learning 🧪🧠 This concept wheel is a practical way to help students understand the alkali metals in Group 1 of the periodic table. I first made it for a grade 8 class that was struggling with the idea of chemical families. Instead of giving them another chart to copy, I tried this wheel activity, and it worked much better because they could see and handle the information piece by piece. The wheel has eight sections that cover the basics: general properties, reactivity, how these elements appear in nature, and some everyday uses. Students cut out and arrange the pieces to build the full circle. The activity takes a little bit of preparation, but once the pieces are made, you can reuse them. I usually store the sets in small envelopes so they are ready for the next lesson. There are different versions included. Some circles are already filled in, which is helpful when introducing the topic for the first time. Others are blank, so students can write their own notes after a lab or reading assignment. I have used the blank ones during review sessions, and students liked comparing their wheels with a partner’s version. It also gives them a sense of ownership over the material. The wheel can be used in many ways: as a warm-up before a lab, as practice during a unit on the periodic table, or as a review before a quiz. It works for group tasks, but I have also had students complete it on their own. When the wheels are finished, they make a clear visual display for the classroom or for a student’s notebook. This activity is designed for grades 7–10 chemistry or physical science. It supports lessons on periodic trends, classification of elements, and the special role of the alkali metals. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

Shell Model – Chemical Elements Flashcards - Element names
STEM, Science, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Task Cards, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Word Problems, Word Searches, Worksheets, Flashcards
Shell Model – Chemical Elements Flashcards 118 cards for learning the periodic table Learn atomic structure and the periodic table through play and visual learning 🧪🧠 These flashcards are designed to help students explore the structure of atoms using the shell model. Covering all 118 elements of the periodic table, each card includes the atomic number, element name, symbol, and a visual representation of the electron arrangement in shells. It’s a simple but effective tool for bringing abstract chemistry content into a more visual and interactive format. I’ve used this set in grades 7–10, both in introductory lessons and for revision. What worked especially well was printing the cards twice and using them as a memory game (“Find the Pairs”). Students match element names with their shell models or symbols – and along the way, they start to notice patterns: which elements belong to the same group, how many electrons fit in each shell, and what the outer shells can tell us about chemical reactivity. What’s included: 118 printable flashcards (PDF) – one for each element Each card features: atomic number, element name, chemical symbol, and shell model Suggestions for classroom use (games, sorting tasks, self-study) The cards can be used in a variety of ways: – As a memory game (matching name and shell model) – For group sorting activities (by group, period, metal/non-metal, etc.) – As quick quizzes in pair work – Or as visual aids when introducing atomic theory They’re suitable for different levels of difficulty. Beginners can focus on names and symbols, while more advanced students work with the shell diagrams and explain electron configurations. It’s also a helpful tool for differentiation – everyone works at their own pace, but with the same visual material. This resource comes as a PDF and is easy to print and prepare. Laminating the cards is a good idea if you plan to use them more than once. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

The leveled questions allow you to subtly assign the questions to different ability students working in a group. Topics are relevant to the students and current. Graphics draw the students into the article. I'm going to have one printed and waiting in for my substitute folder too! THANKS!" "Thanks for putting together a wonderful resource." "I teach Special Education high school science in Maryland in a special school for children with learning disabilities/Autism. I liked the readings and I think students could relate to the topics. I know these are too high a reading level for most of my students and I would read it out loud and highlight the important information together. I would not be able to use the higher-order thinking questions (which I like) with these kids. For my high students (very few of these in my school :), I really like these especially how you noted where you got the information which if they were inclined, they could go back to the original source. I like that you have scaffolded the questions and I would only be able to use these with a handful of students, but I think in a regular high school classroom (I spent many years in regular ed) these are spot on.

Niels Bohr – A Look at One of the Founders of Atomic Theory Informational Text, Student Tasks, and Interactive Quiz (PDF + H5P) 🧪🔬 A ready-to-use classroom resource for grades 7–10 🧪 This material introduces students to Niels Bohr and his ideas about the atom – ideas that still shape how we teach atomic structure today. The text is short and easy to follow, so it works well for younger students or for those who are just starting to learn about atomic models. I’ve used this kind of format when I needed a quick but meaningful activity – for example, during a unit on atomic theory or as part of a lesson on scientists and their discoveries. It’s also been useful in cover lessons, especially when someone without a science background had to step in. Everything is included and explained clearly. What’s in the file: A short reading text about Niels Bohr A profile worksheet for students to fill out Quiz questions with an answer key Two optional tasks: – Students write their own questions – Students answer a partner’s questions You get everything as a printable PDF, a modifiable .docx file (text only), and a simple H5P version for use in digital learning systems How you might use it: Students can read the text alone or in pairs. They then fill in the profile and answer the quiz questions. If there’s still time, they can come up with their own questions about the text and swap them with a classmate. The H5P version is helpful if your students are working online or if you want them to check their answers themselves. It’s a flexible resource that doesn’t need a lot of explanation – and works just as well in regular science lessons as in emergency planning. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

What’s included: 93 total cards (3 versions with 31 cards each) Card shapes: round, square (cut-friendly), and hexagonal Elements included: main group elements up to Period 5 + Cs Symbols and atomic numbers only – no element names Hand-drawn visuals created specifically for this resource Instructions included (PDF for print and laminate) How to use in class: This game works well as a review activity, brain break, or warm-up. I’ve used it at the end of a unit on the periodic table or to reinforce visual recall before a quiz. It can be played in pairs, small groups, or even as a whole-class team competition. To support deeper learning, you can also add color-coding tasks – for example, have students group elements by family or period after each round. The game naturally encourages cooperation, observation, and concentration. Because it’s printable and easy to prep, it’s also well-suited for substitute lessons or station work. Students enjoy the fast pace and competition – and they often don’t realize how much they’re reviewing in the process.
