STARTER
Pupils will start the lessons by thinking and working in pairs in a race to work out a picture puzzle. This leads to revealing the title and lesson outcomes, and then students self assess against their current understanding of this topic (at the end of the lesson they will use this assessment to reflect on how much progress they made during the lesson).

MAIN and MAIN and MAIN…
This lesson is ‘chunked’ into discrete sections to support learning and create positive behaviour by keeping students interested and focused as they have fun learning. There are various interesting and fun student activities such as gap fill, matching, video, sequencing, literacy activity, questions with answers, recall, think/pair/share, quiz, self-assessment and peer assessment opportunities, up and about game etc.

PLENARY
In the plenary activity pupils complete a physical (up and about) quiz to uncover how much they have learnt during the lesson. Next they self assess their progress against the lesson outcomes. Students who need further support set themselves additional homework to enhance learning of today’s lesson.

EXTENSION ACTIVITIES
These are provided just in case any group requires them.
