AFL - Self Assessment - 3 faces

(0)
I train the pupils in my class to attach one of these self assessment strips to each piece of work that they complete. Each pupil staples the horizontal strip with the three different faces on to every piece of work when they have completed it. The pupils then select the appropriate face and colour it with the appropriate colour depending on whether they have met the success criteria of the task/lesson.

Circletime Rules poster

In my classroom circletime is an essential part of our school day. It takes place every morning and it begins with a checking in activity. Other activities follow and it helps set the tone for the rest of the school day. The success of circletime depends on the setting up of circletime rules which are clearly and brightly displayedon this poster.

Thinking mats for pupils in groups of 4

(0)
These thinking mats are perfect for use during group activities. The children need to be placed in groups of 4 and each given post it notes. Each child has his/her own section of the mat on which they can post their own ideas. The children then discuss all the ideas that have been added in each section of the mat and decide on the best idea or combined ideas which are then placed in the middle of the mat. This group activity aid cuts out all quarrelling!

AFL Faces for nursery and foundation phase pupils

This resource is used and loved by the teachers in our nursery and Reception classes. The children get to stick a face onto their work/painting/art & craft work etc and then draw either a smiley face or a sad face depending on how they felt about their performance during the task. This is a great way of introducing AFL early on in a child's education and helps them progress to higher level AFL strategies as they move through the school.
