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!

A comprehensive set of over 75 questions and answers on diet and nutrition 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. Questions include; components of a balanced diet, examples of food from each component, roles of each of the components, obesity.

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. You can use these question cards when you introduce diet and nutrition 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.

Part of the reformed OCR A Level PE course (2016), set 1 includes 70 question cards on the emergence and evolution of modern sport in pre-industrial Britain and post-1850 industrial Britain. Perfect for starting lessons, introducing new topics, interleaving and recapping previous learning as well as for collaborative revision activities, these flashcards can be projected on your whiteboard or printed in a variety of sizes (and in black and white) and displayed in your classroom or distributed to your students electronically. Questions include topics on: -the characteristics of recreational activities in pre-industrial Britain -the socio-cultural reasons for the characteristics of recreational activities in pre-industrial Britain -the characteristics of recreational activities in post-1850 industrial Britain -the socio-cultural reasons for the characteristics of recreational activities in pre-industrial Britain -social class -gender -law & order -education & literacy -availability of time & money -type & availability of transport Also included in this resource is a random question generator. 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'.

Check student understanding with these ever popular true or false statements on diet and nutrition. These 40 interactive true or false statements built on PowerPoint are designed to challenge all ability levels with repetition of concepts to reinforce learning. 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. Students can access it from there and must have the PowerPoint app loaded on their mobile device in order to access this resource. All they need to do is open the resource in the PowerPoint app, press play and away they go! This resource can of course be used on PCs and as a whole class activity by projecting it onto your whiteboard.

Something completely new! A fully interactive drag and drop activity for your students to show their knowledge and understanding of the frustration-aggression hypothesis. How to use this resource: Heard of ‘desirable difficulties’? This is a great concept I came across in Peter Brown’s excellent book ‘Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning’, where, as teachers, we need to create difficult scenarios in which students have to wrestle with content to grasp its meaning, rather than simply be told it. In essence, we need to get them to ‘work it out’ for themselves. By working hard to make meaning of new material students are much more inclined to remember and understand the concepts involved. And can then apply them correctly. In this case, the desirable difficulty is the challenge for students to successfully drag and drop each component of the hypothesis into the correct container. They have unlimited attempts and on pressing submit they will receive feedback as to whether they have been successful or not. It’s a great way to introduce this hypothesis and as well as can being used on individual devices, it can be projected on your board and used as a whole class activity. It can also be used to review learning and as a revision tool.

Check student understanding with these ever popular true or false statements on the skeletal system. These 70 interactive true or false statements built on PowerPoint are designed to challenge all ability levels with repetition of concepts to reinforce learning. It's a great resource to use as an introduction to the skeletal system to assess students' prior knowledge, as well as assessing learning during the unit or upon completion. As well as using this resource as a whole class class activity, these statements can be distributed to students electronically so that they can challenge themselves on their tablets or school PC. They are also printable (in black & white as well as colour) and can be used in small group activities. Here's a taster of some of the statements: The scapula is located in the lower body Cartilage attaches bone to muscle One of the functions of the skeleton is to store vitamins The fibula is larger than the tibia A hinge joint is a synovial joint found at the shoulder & hip Flexion is when the angle of the joint gets larger The articulating bones at the knee are the femur, tibia & ulna Synovial joints allow movement Here's what you'll receive: 70 True/False statements (with answers) on PowerPoint 70 True/False statements - Random Question Generator (with answers) on PowerPoint.

A dynamic presentation made on PowerPoint on Bandura's Observational Learning Theory. It provides the key concepts of the theory and is definitely not designed simply to be used as a front of class teaching resource to be copied off the board!! Whilst providing the key terminology and structure, this resource allows you to elaborate and develop the observational learning theory with your students as you go. I have successfully used this with my students as a guide; asking them to research the theory initially and then having them use this resource to explain the learning theory to themselves and others. Using iPads or tablets you can distribute this to your students via Showbie and upload it on Explain Everything (both apps available on the App Store and Google Play). Then your students can record their explanation of the theory. When they're done, they put their work back into Showbie for you to listen to. Simple and a really great way to check how well they have grasped this theory and for you to provide valuable feedback. There are also some scaffolded questions on this learning theory at the end of the presentation to assist students in their explanations. What are the four stages involved in this theory? Why is it important to get the learner’s attention? What makes a good demonstration? What key words could you use when describing the retention process? What is involved in the motor production stage? What is motivation? What can you as the coach do to promote learning?

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.
