Forces and Energy Learning Outcomes and Knowledge organiser
This resource is not a stand alone resource rather should be purchased with any of The 'Forces and Energy' resources by razeitlin.
The year 7 and year 8 learning outcome sheets feature all learning outcomes for the 6.5 week term. Aligned with the learning outcomes is space to record exit ticket scores, these scores are used to provide formative feedback to both the pupils and the teacher and reduce the need to extensive marking as the exit tickets are diagnostic of understanding.
Next to the Exit ticket score is place for a RAGing of learning, this allows the students to customise their revision and feedback. The colour of the learning outcome related to the colour on the knowledge organiser, this allows student to take accountability for their own learning and progress as the knowledge organiser aims to close the feedback loop.
The Knowledge organiser has questions on the reverse of it, again colour coded to the learning outcomes to make progress accessible.
