This lesson has been created to build students confidence with using and applying assessment objectives to their learning - i have found that through using skills builders students grow in confidence and full marks seems more attainable. Students annotate the mark scheme and an example answer before applying their knowledge to a new question and marking their peers work to demonstrate further undertstanding.
