My students love these! Printed onto A3 double sided, summary tables allow students to create their own summary of each topic in a format that makes sense to them. Rather than using someone else’s summary or a revision guide, it means that they have to think deeply about the material in order to condense it for revision. They are given a column for AO1 and AO3 for each specification point to make sure that they are completely covering all they need to know. I am offering Memory for FREE, but other Paper 1, 2 and a couple of Paper 3 topics are available to purchase as a set.
