Enanging and fun. I found the resource useful, particularly to give me new ideas on strategies how to teach the AQA specification. Used a wide range of activities that were all different and follows all of the key aspects that are on the specification, and even includes areas of when you could teach it/ what you could teach it with. A great interpretation of the specification.
