A fantastic way to motivate students!

Students read their notes to complete a grid of questions in exact specification order. Cross-referenced to ZigZag's Teaching Packs to ensure structured study.

This is an ideal resource to use as a homework task to ensure that learners arrive at lessons armed with knowledge as well as a quick reference for revision

What do teachers say about this resource? (5888)

On the whole I liked this resource. It does what it says on the label and the teacher’s introduction was clear, suggesting a variety of ways of using it. I particularly liked the use of boxes eg grid 4 and pictures eg grid 5. It would also be helpful for the IGCSE unit which has no textbook so partially fills a gap. It enhances learning by providing useful consolidation of content. Its educational value is also that it could be used as a diagnostic tool to measure progress and reassure pupils that they have grasped key material/concepts. It matches the spec very well.

What do teachers say about this resource? (5887)

This is a good resource that is useful for students who might otherwise fail to grasp some of the key concepts or read around the course. This is an ideal resource to use as a homework task to ensure that learners arrive at lessons armed with knowledge as well as a quick reference for revision... By setting these grids as homework, a teacher can be assured that the basic knowledge required has been gained.

This resource is clearly set out and it is clear without instructions what is required from the student. The topics from each grid are appropriate and could be easily placed in a scheme of work for the planning of homework. The resource links well to the key themes of the specification that students are required to understand and evaluate. The resource would be good for an introduction or consolidation of the key facts included within the specification.
