This is a set of 28 task cards for students to practice atomic structure topics including:

• Parts of an atom
• Atomic number
• Atomic mass
• Electron Shells
• Ions and Isotopes

It is intended for students ages 12-15 taking introductory level courses, or studying atomic structure for the first time. The task cards combine Bohr diagrams and images in the format that students will see in the Periodic Table so that they learn what the numbers in the Periodic Table mean before they are asked to focus on the arrangement of atoms in periods and groups.

More About This Resource


The 28 task cards are provided in two versions: color and black/white, for a total of 56 task cards. The resource also includes a student answer sheet and a teacher answer key as well as suggestions for using the task cards individually, in pairs, and in small groups.

Task cards are a flexible teaching tool that is ideal for middle school and junior high students who need to have lots of opportunity for movement and for working with peers in a variety of group sizes. Task cards can be used by individual students, by pairs, or by small groups. They can be placed at stations or at desks to which students rotate. Or, they can be passed from small group to small group. They’re great for use with substitutes because they are completely independent.

I highly recommend that you print the cards on heavy-duty card stock paper and laminate them. Students usually respect and take care of laminated materials more so than unlaminated materials, and lamination also makes the cards last for years and years.
