AQA A Level PE – Skill Characteristics, Transfer & Practice Mind Map Bundle (2.1) | Brain Gym PE

Three A3 revision mind maps covering the whole of Section 2.1, “Skill characteristics and their impact on transfer and practice”, from the AQA A Level PE specification. Each mind map comes in two versions:

• Chalkboard version. A full-colour, fully completed mind map to display on the board for teaching and revision.
• Student version. A white, printable fill-in sheet with blank lines and labels for students to complete in class or for homework.

Mind maps included (6 pages):

Characteristics & Classification of Skill: characteristics of skill (ACE FACE) and the six skill continua (open–closed, gross–fine, self-paced–externally paced, discrete–serial–continuous, low–high organisation, simple–complex), with a “place it, then justify it” activity
Transfer of Learning: positive, negative, zero and bilateral transfer, a “Skill A → Skill B” diagram, and how coaches can ensure positive transfer
Methods & Types of Practice: whole, whole–part–whole and progressive part practice; massed, distributed, varied and mental practice; when to use each, with advantages and disadvantages

Every mind map includes:
✔ Key terms with clear definitions
✔ Labelled diagrams and models
✔ Sporting examples to apply the theory
✔ An exam corner with check-your-understanding questions

Ideal for introducing topics, end-of-topic consolidation, retrieval practice, homework and exam revision. Save money by buying the bundle rather than the three mind maps separately.
