Here is a double sided A4 sheet to be used after students have sat their mock exams. The aim is to get them to reflect on their revision (or lack of!) including which techniques they used and what kind of environment they revised in. They can also fill in their scores and grade and compare this to the last mock they sat and work out their progress. They then also work out how many marks they are away from the next grade / their target grade. This enables them to reflect on how much work they have to do to get the marks they need and focus their revision on specific topic that will get them the marks they need! We did a class discussion throughout this I kept stopping them after they’d filled out parts to discuss. Enjoy!
