This resource provides a lovely and very effective way to develop reflective skills among the pupils in your class. By providing a variety of sentence stems that encourage the student to focus on a particular area of their learning or ability, you can scaffold the development of this difficult skill. This resource can be used in any subject, glued in to a book or used as part of a permanent display in your classroom. There are some many ways you can use this resource to get your students really thinking about their learning and can be used to stimulate peer and whole class discussion.

Very effective resource used throughout or at the end of a lesson as a self or peer assessment tool to evaluate learning. This is a formative and cooperative way of assessing a students understanding, and a great motivator for students of any age. It is a very effective tool to encourage students to identify their own next steps in learning, as well encouraging them to share their reasoning with the teacher and peers. Most effective when used as permanent working-wall and referred to consistently, especially during plenaries.

This display lettering is to encourage a more positive approach to learning from mistakes and a growth mindset approach to recognising our areas of weakness and focusing on improving them. A description of how I use this resource is contained within the pack and the approach taken to maximise the engagement of students.

A ppt with a series of activities that develop an awareness of the classroom rules and some get to know you activities. There are activities that involve Art/DT that can then be used make a display.
