Periodic Table Dice Game
A great little game for groups to practice their periodic table knowledge, pupils are encouraged to test their knowledge but have the periodic tables as a safety blanket to ensure all abilities can compete and SHOW PROGRESS.
REQUIRES 1xD6 and 1xD20 per group
Includes:
Player markers
Questions
Scoreboard
Mini periodic tables
Pupils work in groups to solve the challenge, use their own knowledge and that given in the resource to write a report to a construction company on which rocks they should use for different construction tasks. Print out all the pages and a set to groups of 3-4 pupils. 20 minutes to read the information, read the example report and to write their own. Lower ability groups will copy out the example with the correct rocks added in and the higher ability groups will write their own report from scratch.
Rocks, slate, limestone, metamorphic, fossils, marble, construction, uses of rocks

These forms are designed to allow you to print for your students so they can self assess what they know against the required specification.
**UPDATE** interactive form versions included in the link so you can edit and send the forms to your pupils digitally.
Each form only takes pupils a few minutes to fill out and are much quicker than traditional Red/amber/green self assessments.
Ideally complete after the lesson is taught, at the beginning of any revision period and at the end of a revision session.assessments.

Great little plenary chooser that your pupils will get used to fast. I recommend picking up a few D20 dice (10 for £3 on ebay) and giving one to each group.
Then when you want to check understanding either at the end or part way through a lesson they roll the dice and do the corresponding activity.
Pupils enjoy having a semblance of control but you still get the required plenary. If you want a more controlled experience have one pupil roll the dice and every pupil has to do that specific plenary.
Digital dice rollers are also available online.
