Periodic Table
Monday and Wednesday (2 lessons): Explain to students that the periodic

table is organised into 18 groups and 7 periods. Go through the ppt called
Elements and the periodic table.
PPt on
schoology and
work booklet
on schoology.
Student task: Complete the worksheet on colouring in the different groups.

Structure of an
atom, compounds,
elements and
mixtures
Friday lesson 3:
Go through the PowerPoint on schoology, students are to take notes down from
the ppt into their books.
Student task: Complete the worksheet on recognising a compound, element
or mixture, or molecule.
Making a class
periodic table and
Becoming an
element expert
Atomic Number,
Atomic mass,
protons, neutrons
and electrons.
Monday and Wednesday : (2 lessons)

All students choose an element and become an expert in that element. Create
a card that replicates the periodic table and label as many parts as possible.
Must contain element name, atomic number, symbol, group & period.
Find 5 fun facts about your element. Only do first 30 elements on the periodic
table
Plain paper
(half an A4
size),
coloured
pencils/ textas
Friday lesson 3:
Task 1: Students Copy the following information into your books.

Use puffin
Atomic number is the number of number of protons in the nucleus of app if the
an atom. It is listed on the periodic table for each element.

o For carbon the atomic number is 6 so the number of protons is also 6.

Atomic number is also the number of electrons in the atom (when
game will not

open.
the atom of the element has no charge).

o Carbon has 6 electrons when the atom has no charge.
Atomic mass is the number of protons + the number of neutrons.
Always remember to round the atomic mass to the nearest whole number.
o The atomic mass of carbon is 12.0107, which we would round to 12.
To find the number of neutrons in an atom of an element subtract the
atomic number from the atomic mass, round your answer to the nearest
whole number.
o Atomic mass (12) Atomic number (6) = 6
o So carbon has 6 neutrons.
Task 2: Complete the element math game
(http://education.jlab.org/elementmath/index.html)
Go to the above website
Select 20 questions and then click more options please
Select First 36 elements and then Im ready! Lets start!
You must score at least 90% in the quiz and take a screen shot of your

Friday Lesson 3:
Balancing Equations
Lesson 1-Monday and lesson 2 -Wednesday

Write on board: (student notes)
- Write the correct chemical formula of all the reactants and products.
- Count the number of atoms of each type appearing on both sides.
- If the numbers on each side are not the same, place numbers in front of
the formula until they are. You may need to go back and forth a few
times until you get the numbers right.
- Do not change any of the formulas
- The number in front apply to all the symbols in the formula.
- Check to make sure the equation is balanced.
- Reactants must = the products
- Create a mini table as below to help
Reactants
Products
Once completed notes go through some examples on the board.

Students are than to have a go at the worksheet individually. This may take
students two lessons to fully understand. If struggling go through more
examples and have students completed extra questions.
