A copy of Radiation Taboo needs to be provided on card for each group of three students. One student is the "guesser", a second gives clues and the third is the judge to make sure none of the "taboo" words are used. The winning group of students being the one with the most correct guesses in the five minutes. This is still relevant for the 3rd edition.

 Word

This is a mapping from memory exercise on light and electronsStudents work in groups of three and have a black-and-white copy of the template (1)The teacher has thecompleted coloured form (2). One of the students looks at the coloured copy for 15 seconds and then returns to the template to discuss/transfer the information for 45 seconds. This is repeated seven more times. It could be followed up with past questions. Still relevant for the 3rd edition.
