What do teachers say about this resource? (5342)
Extremely useful for stressed and hard worked teachers. It will save time for them but also provides ideas of different ways of revising. Has a variety of techniques and has been well thought out. I like the fact that the suggested answers are given throughout [and] the differentiated aspects of the tasks. I feel it gives very focused tasks for the students but it also helps the staff because it gives them transferable skills that can be used to do different topics of revision. Range of styles of learning provided. Suits a variety of students.
I liked the Teacher's notes at the start of each activity as tasks were clearly explained and many gave different ways to approach the activity to suit the learners. The resource provides many starter activities to provoke thinking about the key areas of this specification and many plenaries in order to consolidate knowledge and understanding. It is a resource which I would dip in and out of.
Some great ideas for starters and plenaries in here! I have already used some in the lessons I have planned. The links to the unit are fab, teacher’s notes are really helpful. I like how there are English and Maths links throughout too. Great for consolidating and recapping.
I really like this resource. I feel that this would be a really useful resource in the class... there are a lot of opportunities to support students in their learning and to identify the progress that has been made within a lesson.
Very linear, clear and easily understood. The range of activities is suitable for a range of learning styles. I really like it.
