Reflex Arc: Create a Labelled Diagram

A differentiated resource for producing a labelled diagram of a reflex arc. There are two main versions of this activity, but both of them require the information cards. These can be printed out and placed around the room.

The first version is an all in one A4 sheet that has the diagram and labels that can be cut out and stuck on. This is better suited to lower ability students, they can find out where the parts are by looking at the information around the room.

The second version requires the diagram with no labels. Students have to collect the information from around the room and write it on their diagram. I run this as a memory game, giving students two rules: they can only write on their diagram at their desk, and they cannot move the information sheets.
