Diamond Ranking Grid
This is a classic diamond ranking grid. The students can rank some concepts into order.
Better still, the students can be given a case study, develop their own list of concepts and then order them .
You can use this in different ways:
• Print out the sheets
• Print out concepts for students to arrange on the printed sheets
• Print out the concepts and get students to arrange without the template
• Project a completed sheet onto an interactive whiteboard and get the students to drag the boxes around
• Enlarge the sheet onto A3 and get them laminated. Students can then use the sheets with a pack of Whiteboard pens to enable a wipe clean board.

Moving into Year 7: smooth transitions
A session for students that supports and helps students understand how to manage the transition into secondary school.
It gives them validation, and the opportunity to show their feelings in a safe environment.
Preparing for secondary school could be used as a poster or a worksheet for the students to explore their feelings.
