This years pre-release material for the 2017 AQA GCSE PE exam is about a year 10 student called James. I'm providing 11 questions on a sheet ready for immediate use as a test or exam. Each answer is worth between 2 and 8 marks. Each answer requires a structured, written answer. Depending on the ability of the students, the test should last about 55 minutes. For those who finish early, they can mark each others papers with the comprehensive Mark Scheme provided. Both exam and mark scheme can be retained for future revision work.

Question sheets 1-7 are best printed out on A3. I always kept a few of these in my classroom as extension tasks or homework. They are designed to encourage students to plan an answer before writing. Q1: Other subjects relevance to PE Q2: Qualities of a successful first aider Q3: Funding an athlete Q4: Unsuitable sponsorship Q5: Effects of fatigue Q6: How exercise affects the c/v system Q7: How correct technique prevents injury Quiz, quiz, trade is a starter and plenary activity where every student has a slip of paper with a questions and its answer on it. They go around the room and ask someone their question. Once they have answered it, the correct answer is given. Then they swap roles. Once the second question has been answered, they trade questions and find someone new. This can continue as long as you wish but allows for lots of people to ask and be asked questions. The plenary at the end is simply the teacher asking the questions again. Everyone should be able to provide an answer! I like to have the class all stand up, they can sit down when they've answered a question correctly. The revision loop is a series of answers with an unrelated question on the bottom. Each student gets one of these slips and has to use their answer to answer someone else's question. Next, two Tarsia jigsaw puzzles. Simply cut out and muddle up and then re-arrange. Lots of ambiguity to promote discussion and problem solving. These resources will save hours of prep. and can be used repeatedly as part of your revision. Any feedback, positive or developmental, is greatly appreciated.

This has been created to allow students to understand the celebration that is the Rugby League World Cup and hopefully foster an interest in a minority sport at a time of year when there is not an awful lot happening in the world of sport. I've created this so that all students using it can come complete a workbook that is different from everyone else's but also differentiated to their needs. For example, there are three sheets on Legends, each one has a different task that is aimed at different levels of ability. Students should/could choose or be given a team to follow and have as their nominated team and spark some extra interest in the tournament. Pages are interchangeable so that fast workers can readily move onto the next page whereas slower workers can sheets that they may access more readily. Activities include: *Research activities on the host nations and history of the tournament. *Creating your own opening ceremony. *Matching key terms to their definitions. *Researching nominated team. *Focus on legendary players. *And more This resource can easily be adapted for the other home nations. Any and all feedback, positive or developmental, is greatly appreciated.

33 question quiz in a variety of formats (multiple choice, true or false etc.) all associated with St. George. Questions about the actual historical figure and his legend as well as associated topics, including flags and dragons. Any and all feedback is gratefully received, positive or developmental.

Three lessons. Glossary with checklist to assess learning after every lesson. All on powerpoint and accompanied with a worksheet for Low Attainers to complete instead of making notes. Each lesson begins with a "Do Now," activity for students to complete as soon as they enter the class. Key terms are discussed at the start of the lesson. Exam style questions that are differentiated. Students choose whether to answer the 'Normal' questions or to 'Level-Up!' Tasks within the lessons are a combination of group tasks and individual tasks. It may be an idea to have groups pre-selected. Lesson 1: PE in School Lesson 2: Sports Strategies (PESSYP & PESSCL) Lesson 3: School and Healthy Lifestyles Powerpoint includes teachers notes at intervals to offer further guidance. All feedback greatly received.

Power point guides students through reviewing the previous year. Students complete 1 of 3 worksheets that asks different questions about the past year (example: Who were your best friends? What could you have done better?) Because the sheets are all different, students won't simply copy their neighbour's information. Following that activity, students move on to looking forward to 2017 and creating resolutions in four fields: School, Home, Health and Happiness. They are requested to come up with specific steps to enable them to better achieve their resolutions. There is a sheet for them to complete accordingly. Finally, we try and emulate this with school targets. It would be ideal if these were available but, if not, it could be set as a homework or an extension task to complete. Again, there is a sheet for students to complete if required. The idea for this was to review the resolutions at regular periods but it would also be nice to keep them all in a folder to get out at this time next year, becoming an ongoing activity and a nice keepsake for students. Many thanks. Any feedback, good or bad is gratefully received.

A powerpoint to help pick teams at random for any sweepstake style activities. Play the powerpoint form the beginning and then press 's' to stop it on a team and 's' to start it again. 'Esc' to exit the powerpoint.

This is a complete lesson that needs no preparation other than printing the two activity sheets above for some of your students to use. I used this lesson as a recap for my GCSE PE class after they returned from half term holidays thinking they'd struggle to remember the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. I was right, but this lesson lulled them into remembering and applying their notes in a fun and enjoyable way. I was genuinely surprised by how well the lesson went and how much they learned. Lesson starter is a crossword with all the key terms of the lesson. There are two corsswords, one with a word bank of correct answers and one without to aid differentiation. The power point contains a youtube link to an old Merrie Melodies cartoon of the fable of the Tortoise and the Hare. It's 8 and a half minutes long and makes for an interesting start to the lesson. My students were surprisingly attentive throughout! We then had a debate about how we can link this story to demonstrate respiration and it's effects. Once students start to see the link we can begin with the main activity. Students have to retell the story but using some specific terms that relate to respiration. This task is differentiated in three ways. For the more able students they should write their story in continuous prose. For intermediate students there is the attached short version of the story to remind them or to stick in their book. For low ability students there is a comic strip for them to annotate or add dialogue. Any feedback, good or bad is gratefully received.

Each sheet has part of a comic story printed on it and prompts to complete encouraging them to to think of one characters point of view or to provide ideas as to how the story got to that point. Because they are all so different you can pick one for specific children depending on their interests or the areas that you wish them to develop. They are ideal to use as either a starter or as an extension task both of which could be developed into the creation of a creative story. Any and all feedback is gratefully received whether positive or developmental. Download as word doc. or PDF at your convenience. Any q's, please ask.

This years pre-release material for the 2016 AQA GCSE PE exam is about an athlete called Lucy. I'm providing 11 questions on a sheet ready for immediate use as a test or exam. Each answer is worth between 2 and 8 marks. Each answer requires a structured, written answer. Depending on the ability of the students, the test should last about 50 minutes. For those who finish early, they can mark each others papers with the comprehensive Mark Scheme provided. Both exam and mark scheme can be retained for future revision work.

Power point guides students through reviewing the previous year. Students complete 1 of 3 worksheets that asks different questions about the past year (example: Who were your best friends? What could you have done better?) Because there are 3 different sheets, students won't simply copy their neighbour's information. Following that activity, students move on to looking forward to 2017 and creating resolutions in four fields: School, Home, Health and Happiness. They are requested to come up with specific steps to enable them to better achieve their resolutions. There is a sheet for them to complete accordingly. Finally, we try and emulate this process but with school targets. It would be ideal if these were available but, if not, it could be set as a homework or an extension task to complete. Again, there is a sheet for students to complete if required.

This is a game that I used as a starter in every lesson with my GCSE PE group. It's a simple, fun way of getting little snippets of info. into their heads. Give each student at least one slip of paper, more able students can have 2 or more. Each slip has a blue answer, followed by a red question. Every answer corresponds to someone else's question. Whoever has the "Start," begins by asking their question, whoever has the corresponding answer, states it and then reads out their question. This continues until you get to the finish. If someone doesn't know they have the answer, get everyone left in the game to read out their answer until the correct one is announced. You can then ask that person the question at the end of the lesson to see if they have retained their knowledge. My kids loved it and after a couple of weeks it was taking them 2 minutes to complete instead of 10.

Over 100 slides of questions related to the PE GCSE course. Once the slideshow has begun, the slides will play at super speed and are stopped by the pressing the "S" key. The presentation will stop and a question will be visible. The questions are a variety of styles including: True or False Multiple Choice Missing letters Etc. The quiz can be run in a number of ways but I found it best to have students in teams and then, when the question has been selected, you can nominate someone from that team to answer therefore ensuring the student has a question matched to their ability.

This is a powerpoint that on disability in sport. The objective is: Understand how disabled people participate in sport and what changes sport and facilities need to make to accommodate disabled people. The lesson covers the following elements: Categorising disability How sport has adapted Facilities Policy of inclusion The lesson finishes with two exam style questions and a video that inspires and sparks debate. The lesson has links to youtube in order to compare NBA basketball to wheelchair basketball. The lesson comes with a differentiated worksheet for less able students to allow them to concentrate on getting the required content rather than writing. It has been added in Word format and as a PDF for your convenience. Any and all feedback, positive or developmental, is greatly appreciated.

I created this resource for my form a few years ago for a bit of fun and it turned into quite an event. I've added to it by creating a true or false quiz for a bit of fun and context to give the students some ideas. As well as being a bit of a lark, it actually gives students an opportunity to get creative, to do some research and to spread the word about the plight of one of our most entertaining but also threatened animals. All feedback is gratefully received, whether positive or developmental. Thanks.

This resource is ready for immediate use and is aimed at GCSE PE students, however it would also be useful in a variety of other subjects. It has the Tour de France as it's main focus, utilising imagery, video and examples to help students understand the importance of sponsorship within sport. The powerpoint prompts debate and asks questions of the class for students to answer both verbally and in their books. Access to the internet will be needed as there are youtube clips to link to. Also included is a worksheet for less able students to complete instead of writing notes and copying out. This allows for differentiation as they will get all the correct information down whilst also doing the work required of them. Any feedback, positive or developmental is greatly appreciated.

This lesson utilises the Toronto Wolfpack rugby league team as it's source material in it's unique position as the first transatlantic sports team. After first highlighting the fact that all of the teams in the Kingstone Press League 1 are Welsh or English, students are asked to guess the location of the league leaders which is of course, Toronto. Following there is a brief fact file about the Wolfpack and then a think, pair, share task looking at the positives and negatives of having a team based in Canada, play in Britain. Students are then challenged to tackle one of three tasks, looking at either logistics management, grass roots or marketing, all of which are directly related to the Wolfpack. This allows for differentiation as students can pick their challenge or have the teacher select one for them in order to push students. Finally we have question time. All students should attempt EITHER the normal OR the level-up before attempting the killer question. The normal question is aimed at lower ability students, again allowing for differentiation. The killer question is related to another sport entirely in order to encourage students to transfer their knowledge to another area. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, positive or developmental.

6 rounds of 39 questions all about the past season and the history of the EPL. Questions vary from multiple choice, match ups and straight forward questions. No matter how knowledgeable your students are, they'll be challenged and even if they have no interest in sport whatsoever, they'll still be able to participate fully and enjoy the quiz. This is ideal for the start of the new school year. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, positive or developmental.

I’ve designed this as an ongoing resource to be returned to every regularly for the duration of the World Cup tournament. It comes with a powerpoint that has all the participating teams on it. If you play the powerpoint then the images will quickly change. Press “S” and the slideshow will stop on a team. Press “S” again to re-start the slideshow. Using this method, each child can randomly select a team to follow. This team will also feature in their booklet as a research project. The booklet starts with a page about the hosts of the tournament, Russia. It’s a research activity and so access to computers or books is helpful. Next we look at the geography of Russia and the location of the stadiums. There are two sheets here which look identical but are not. One is aimed at a higher level than the other and this is distinguished by the World Cup icon in the top right. All future differentiated sheets for the higher ability have this icon. Then we have the history of the tournament and again a differentiated version for lower ability students. Following is a picture quiz where students have to name the winners of the previous tournaments. Next is a research project where students are asked to design a poster for their previously selected team. There is a differentiated version for lower ability students with a number of prompt questions to help with research. The next sheets each relate to the England football team. The tasks are to create a song/rap or chant, to design their football kit. Next is an art project looking at the work of Wassily Kandinsky, a famous Russian artist with a particularly bright and vivid style. Students are asked to reproduce his work and this can be extended to adapt a football picture into his style of work and a blank canvas for the truly creative. There then follows a focus on five famous players with an attached fact file and a drawing to colour in. Once this is completed there is a blank fact file for students to pick their favourite player and complete accordingly. Next comes an English language task where students are asked to conduct a post-match interview with a player of their choice. Finally there is a puzzle page with riddles and a word-search. The answers are on the final sheet. There are a number of ways in which you can run this project: You could compile the workbooks beforehand and hand them out so that they are differentiated to each class members ability. You could hand out each page individually and then compile them at the end. My ideal would be that everyone gets a different sheet so that everyone is doing a different task within the same time frame and then they are compiled at the end. Any feedback, positive or negative, is greatly appreciated.
