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. This resource includes 5 documents: -'What's the difference between' questions (PowerPoint) -Random Question Generator (PowerPoint) -'What's the difference between' questions (PDF) -Small slide questions (PDF) -Questions work sheet (PDF)

A comprehensive set of questions and answers on the skeletal system to challenge all ability levels. Printable (on PowerPoint) so that they can be used in a variety of activities from group work matching the correct answer to the question; exam style questions; to check knowledge and understanding as well as for starters and plenaries.

An engaging interactive sorting activity designed to make even your most able students think hard! Perfect for self paced, personalised learning! How does it work? Students have to decide which of the three stages of learning each of the statements presented to them belong. They simply drag the statement to what they believe is the correct stage of learning. To add further challenge to the task, feedback (successful or unsuccessful) is reserved until students have completed the entire task. When I gave this task to my students for the first time, they found it very difficult and I thought the task was too much for them, (they had no previous knowledge of stages of learning). However, having really grappled with the content and yes, made mistakes along the way, their knowledge and understanding of this topic is now solid. Making our students think hard is no bad thing! Here's one suggestion of how you could use this resource: -distribute the url address to your students so they can access the task on their mobile devices or PC. -ask them to complete the task on their own - this will be challenging for some and will probably take some time. -next, after a period of time, whether successful or not, pair students up with a partner so they can share their thoughts and work collaboratively. -pairs then become fours (collaborative learning continues) and so on until you have a whole class discussion about why each statements belongs in a particular category. - if you have AirPlay or Apple TV, why not have one or more of your students project their screen onto the class whiteboard or TV so that they can explain their thinking to the rest of the class. -upon successfully completing the task students can take a screen shot of the correct version and store it electronically or print it.

It's a great resource to use as an introduction to diet & nutrition to assess students' prior knowledge, as well as assessing learning during the unit or upon completion. How to navigate these slides: 1. At first the main white body of the slide will appear empty (no text). This encourages students to think about what the concept is before the statement is revealed. 2. By clicking on the concept (in the red box) students can reveal the statement. 3. They then decide whether the statement is true or false and click the appropriate word (true or false) to reveal the answer. 4. Either a red cross or a green tick will appear against the word chosen to indicate whether the student has answered correctly or not. 5. If an incorrect response has been given, most slides provide feedback. Students click on the blue 'i' button that appears to reveal information about the statement. How to distribute these slides: I use Showbie and the PowerPoint app from the App store or on Google Play. Simply load the powerpoint slide on Showbie in your designated class file.

“A desirable difficulty (first coined by Robert A. Bjork in 1994) is a learning task that requires a considerable but desirable amount of effort, thereby improving long-term performance. As the name suggests, desirable difficulties should be both desirable and difficult.” “When planning lessons, we should not worry about students getting stuck, we should worry about them not getting stuck.” Sherwood (2018) “Making learning too easy leads to thinking that learning has occurred when participants quickly forget and cannot actually apply. Deeper processing is critical”. Shank (2017) These desirable difficulties have been thoughtfully designed in order to challenge your students to go beyond a superficial understanding of the concepts involved in skill classification. Challenge your students and ask them to explain why certain statements are true and to elaborate on other statements. This will be difficult and will require them to think hard and construct deeper understanding of the concepts. This is good, because “when learning is easy it is often superficial and soon forgotten. However when the learning is difficult it makes the learning stronger and better remembered.” Brown (2014) What’s in this resource? 20 desirable difficulties concerning skill classification on MS PowerPoint Random generator on MS PowerPoint, enabling you and your students to select any of the desirable difficulties at random - perfect for starter and review activities and for spaced and retrieval practice Printable PDF of the 20 desirable difficulties to display in class and use as extension tasks Printable worksheet of the 20 desirable difficulties for students to work on individually
