Literature Revision Checklist

Great checklist to give your students for each book so they can see what they do know/need to improve on - great for checking their understanding and helpful for when planning revision sessions. Students are asked to write the book title, a summary of the plot, answer 7 questions using yes/no tick boxes and then they need to write 2 areas in which they need to prioritise and 3 areas where they feel comfortable and just need to recap. Hope you like it - so useful!:)
A Level Psychology Research Task

A Level Psychology Research Task

(0)
Great research task for students to learn to be able to find information from books, magazines, journals and articles. Task has 6 separate topics which are abnormalities, social, memory, attachment, stress and research methods. There are 2 questions for each heading for students to work on. For each one, students have to write the book/article as to where they found the information, author, page number/chapter and the answer to the question. Would take a 2/3 lessons if they were in a library, looking for the information or 1/2 lesson if they were to use computers. Hope you like it:)

One Word Learn! - For Teaching New English Vocabulary (2)

(0)
Miss Andrew’s One Word Learn! Is a brilliant and effective way of getting secondary students to learn new vocabulary regularly. The PowerPoint is colourful and funky! Workbook is included in this download. The idea is to introduce 1 new word at the start of each English lesson (could also be used as a house or extra-curricular activity). You would spend about 7-10 minutes, start to finish on this. For each word there are 4 slides: Title slide: Introduces the word. Definition slide: Gives definition of the word from Oxford Dictionary. Example slide: Two sentences showing the context in which you could use the word in. Activity slide: A wide range of English activities to complete using your new words; such as synonyms, antonyms, sentences, word search, similes, metaphors etc. There are 10 words included in this PowerPoint and 41 slides in total. Our whole school use it and the progress and feedback has been extremely positive! This is the second edition. Can buy both in a bundle! Hope you like it!:)
