Assessment Wrappers (Worksheet x5) & Virtual Assessment Wrapper Bundle

11 Resources
This bundle contains all five of our new exam wrappers (aka cognitive wrappers, assessment wrappers). All of these exam wrappers are: A4, double-sided, colour, and editable. We have included both .doc and .pdf versions to aid with printing. This bundle now also includes our zero-print ‘Virtual Assessment Wrapper’ which features fifty slides of student reflection activities for before and after assessments! Exam wrappers foster metacognition in students (i.e. getting to think about how they learn best and what factors are influencing their academic performance) - use of exam wrappers are frequently cited by researchers as an example of effective metacognition in schools. It is widely accepted that the use of exam wrappers is “best practice”, yet there are very few available online and those that exist are often for university students and not suitable for younger people. These wrappers are designed for students aged 14-18 (KS4 & KS5) - and are designed to be fast, fun, and engaging. This download comprises all five of our exam wrappers, buying them in this bundle saves money and the variety of exam wrappers will help students to engage in a broader array of metacognitive reflection activities and help maintain engagement. For your convenience, we have also included some of our other metacognition sample resources in this bundle.
'The Value of Reading, Literacy and Literature' KS1-3 (P4C) Philosophy for Children - English
godwin86godwin86

'The Value of Reading, Literacy and Literature' KS1-3 (P4C) Philosophy for Children - English

(0)
The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to P4C designed for students in KS1, 2 & 3: it is graphically stimulating, engaging, and fun. This download is also suitable for older students: but the format was designed with younger students in mind. The topic of this Philosophy Boxes download is ‘The Value of Reading, Literacy and Literature’. The aim of Philosophy Boxes is to bring philosophy and critical thinking into every subject at every level: we believe that any subject becomes philosophy when students are asked the right questions and when they think about a topic hard enough and on the deepest (most fundamental) level. The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities [that use 1 of 8 different formats]. The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. The download includes a PowerPoint Show; if you would like an editable PPT presentation so that you can make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ presentation you will need to download the template here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-the-philosophy-boxes-method-template-for-creating-your-own-philosophy-boxes-lessons-p4c-p4k-11463227 A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86 You can also save money by purchasing lessons as bundles.

This is a great metacognition activity to use at the end of your lessons! Download it for free and use it today! Description: This straightforward activity should be run at the end of a lesson: it’s a quick activity that encourages students to reflect on metacognitive factors that have helped them to learn or presented obstacles to learning. Students are presented with a question and move around the room to show their response, providing an opportunity for further metacognitive questioning from the teacher. How To Use: Simply run the PowerPoint Show at the end of your lesson (when there are 5-10 minutes remaining) Each slide presents your class with four options: they must move to different corners of the room to indicate their answer! Once students have moved: it is an ideal opportunity to ask questions that lead them towards insight surrounding their own learning and how they can increase their learning-power in future lessons. What’s Included: A PowerPoint Show (.ppsx) This metacognition activity is brought to you by The Global Metacognition Institute (globalmetacognition.com) All resources can be shared, but users agree not to modify or resell this resource.

The English Debate Generator (GCSE Edition) [For English Language, Literature & Literacy]
godwin86godwin86

The English Debate Generator (GCSE Edition) [For English Language, Literature & Literacy]

(0)
This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring the most important debates relevant to KS4 English classrooms. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly. Debate topics refer to English Literature, English Language & the value of literacy in general. This tool is suitable for whole-school literacy sessions and can be used both inside the English classroom and in form/tutor sessions. Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear. This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include: “What is wrong with the other position in your view?”, “Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”, “Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?” It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move. This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson or revision session. It is also ideal for whole-school literacy.

The formats are: -“Which is more moral?” (students chose between two options) -“Agree or disagree?” (where students respond to a presented statement about morality of a moral issue) -“Who do you save?” (where students need to save one of two people/options, and justify the morality of their decision) -“Moral or immoral?” (where students cast their judgement on a given action, event or person.
