Do your students find it hard to distinguish between similar concepts? This set of over 30 'What's the difference between?' flashcards on the muscular system allows your students to grapple with concepts such as the difference between an agonist and an antagonist, the differences in the roles of the muscles, the difference between ligaments and tendons and the difference between fibre types, to name just a few. You can use these question cards when you introduce the muscular system to gauge the level of students' prior knowledge. Equally, they can be used during the learning of the topic and afterwards to assess knowledge and understanding. They're also great for interactive revision. They can be projected on your whiteboard for whole class interaction or printed out (in various different sizes, in black & white as well as colour) and used as a learning resource by individual students or small groups. Why not display them on your classroom wall, in the PE corridor, in the sports hall or in the changing rooms? There's plenty of scope to use these cards creatively to the benefit of your students.

Made on PowerPoint, questions will continue to appear in quick succession until you press the S key on your key board. To exit the slide show press Esc. Haven't covered a topic yet and don't want those questions to appear? No problem, just hide the relevant slides (in the slide view tab) until you are ready to use them. A fun and interactive way to engage your students in a question and answer session! I've also added a worksheet of these questions which you can print (in black & white) and distribute to your students to write in the correct responses to the questions. I use these questions with my students as a working document throughout the academic year and refer to it often, so as to keep topics fresh in students' memories. For more of the theory of using these cards, see Peter Brown's excellent book, 'Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning'.

Without doubt my most effective resource for helping students tackle exam questions effectively! Full Marks! focuses on making students consider really carefully the number of marks available for each question and thinking hard in order to find the corresponding number of DIFFERENT points. See how this resource works: Copy and paste this url address into your browser to see these interactive flashcards in action. https://youtu.be/Mbn3hedhN7g A fully interactive set of PowerPoint slides with 30 questions associated with diet and nutrition, this resource enables you to show the key concept and number of DIFFERENT points that have to be successfully found by the students. It's so effective because it makes students realise there is no scope for waffle and it encourages them to think about what a mark scheme would look like for each question. Alternatively, simple interactivity allows you to show the DIFFERENT points on the slide and your pupils have to determine which key concept is in the question. Perfect for whole class activities such as starters and plenaries, but also excellent for personalised learning by distributing this resource to individuals on their tablets through Showbie or your school VLE. Students will need to download the PowerPoint app (for free) from the App store or Google Play to benefit from the interactivity of this resource. A must have for all PE teachers!

Application of knowledge is the key to success! Receiving information and recalling content at a superficial level may help students to an extent. But what about their ability to apply the knowledge they have learnt? In this fun, interactive and versatile resource, 'Apply Your Knowledge', students choose key terms on the muscular system by selecting a number and are challenged to make connections and links between the concepts and then apply their knowledge in a practical sporting example. For example, a student clicking three numbers at random might reveal these three key words: biceps, concentric contraction and flexion. The student might offer the connection that flexion takes place at the elbow when the bicep muscle contracts, using a concentric contraction. An example of this is a bicep curl in weight training or when a rugby player makes a tackle. This resource can be used as a whole class activity or for personalised learning when distributed to students' mobile devices (use the PowerPoint app to get full interactivity). The resource can also be printed and students can choose which key terms they want to connect and apply their knowledge to. A great activity to challenge all abilities, it can be used at the start of this unit to gauge students' prior knowledge as well as during and at the end of the unit to assess learning, knowledge, understanding and application.

Do your students find it hard to distinguish between similar concepts? This set of 50 'What's the difference between?' flashcards on diet and nutrition allows your students to grapple with concepts such as the differences between simple and complex carbohydrates, the difference between the role of vitamins and minerals and the difference between macronutrients and micronutrients, to name just a few.

OK, so you've taught the theory (the content knowledge), but what about your students' essay writing skills? Your students will have to write extended answers in their exams, but do they know 'what a good one looks like'? Do they know how to construct high quality pieces of written work which fully answers the questions asked and gives appropriate examples from sport when requested. This resource on attribution theory provides extended essay model answers to questions on Weiner's model of attribution theory and the concept of attribution retraining as well as learned helplessness and mastery orientation. The exam style questions area: Using practical examples explain the meaning of learned helplessness and mastery orientation. Explain how a hockey coach could promote mastery orientation in her players? (10 marks) Using practical examples from tennis explain Weiner’s model of attribution theory. (8 marks) They are a perfect reference to give to your students as model answers after they have attempted the questions themselves. By working through the model answers with your students and analysing the features of the model that make it a strong response, (or how it could be improved still further!), they will be able to build up a greater appreciation of 'what a good one looks like' and what they have to do in order to produce high quality pieces of writing themselves. Simply download this resource, select the blue boxes and delete them to reveal the full model answer responses which you can distribute to your students.

As HoD or teacher i/c A level PE you can now be more confident than ever that every aspect of the whole two year specification is covered. This excel spreadsheet allows you and your colleagues to quickly and easily indicate when a topic has been covered. It also allows you to track which pupils have mastered a topic, which still need more work and those who are way off the pace and require serious intervention. Here's how to use this OCR A Level PE curriculum tracking document: Store the tracking document in a shared folder so all A level PE teachers can access it. When a topic has been covered, teachers simply put a 'Yes' in the column against the corresponding topic, automatically turning the cell from red to green. This is an ideal tool for small and large departments, especially those with more than one teacher teaching the same component to different classes. You may wish to track your students' progress as well. Against the students' names, enter a 1 if their knowledge and understanding is limited and they are in need of considerable intervention, (the corresponding cell will turn red), enter a 2 if they have a reasonable understanding but still need to work on the topic (the cell will turn orange) or enter a 3 if the student has mastered the topic. Ideally, by the end of the course, all the cells should be green!

What a great way to introduce attribution theory! Instead of starting this topic with direct input from yourself as the teacher, why not get your students grappling with this engaging activity designed to help them really get to grips with understanding Weiner's model of attribution theory? Here's how it works: Students have a brief introduction to the concept of attribution theory. They then read the captain's match report and have to decide for themselves whether each of the underlined sentences or phrases (attributions) fall into one of the four categories: ability, effort, task difficulty or luck. Then open the activity up for discussion amongst your students to see where they have placed each of the attributions and to check understanding and misconceptions. Because students are working out the solutions themselves and with one another richer learning and deeper understanding takes place.
