This is a quick resource for creating a revision guide for mechanical properties in engineering lessons. Simply print on to A3 (double sided) and cut along the lines between each mechanical property. Fold the tabs over so they cover the boxes. Pupils are give an amount of time (I suggest five minutes per box) to write a definition, how the property is measured, an application where it is needed etc. In an hour pupils will have a completed revision guide. Pupils can then cover up the definitions and test themselves, before checking to see if they were correct.
