Use this flipped learning worksheet and student sheet to revise and develop understanding of atomic structure and how it is represented in chemistry

This is the first module of a short course that works through key ideas for post-16 chemistry learners in order of scale. Each lesson offers a preparation worksheet to support flipped learning, a student sheet to work through in the lesson and teacher notes with answers.
