Elements and Compounds Dominoes - Middle School Science
A teaching resource targeted at 6th to 9th-grade educators, the Elements and Compounds Dominoes provides an in-depth understanding of the fundamentals of chemistry like elements, compounds, atoms, and molecules.
About the Game
The game is composed of 80 dominoes, which feature questions and answers related to various topics instead of numbers. It encourages learners to explore atomic combinations that form different types of molecules from elements or compounds. Additionally, it familiarizes students with elemental symbols derived from either English or Latin names.
Unique Learning Approach
This product distinguishes itself through intensive chemical formulae explorations. It guides students on interpreting brackets; naming compounds ending in special suffixes like 'ide'; how many atoms are contained in each compound based on a representative symbol.
- Suitable for whole-group sessions: Promotes cooperative learning dynamics.
- In small group activities:Fosters focused peer-to-peer interaction.
- Serves as a homework exercise: Potentiates independent self-learning.
