A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
The Learning Power Quiz focuses on topics related to learning, self-regulation, metacognition and education; the download contains complete resources for a fun one-hour team quiz lesson.
Students love team-quizzes and they’re a great way to foster engagement with new ideas, expand students’ vocabulary and build team-work skills. The Learning Power Quiz contains fifty questions that are displayed over six different rounds:
Multiple Choice
True or False
Solve the Anagram
What’s The Missing Word?
Answer The Question
What’s The Best Definition?
The answers are revealed via the included PowerPoint presentation file after the quiz has been completed: a teacher’s answer sheet is also included.
To enhance the value of the quiz in terms of metacognition and self-regulated learning each question slide also includes a student reflection extension question. Teachers can award extra points to students who give good answers to these reflection questions which will encourage students to engage in the reflection questions.
The quiz is suitable for students aged 11-16 and can be differentiated for different age and ability groups by changing the size of the teams. The download includes an easy to use ‘auto-play’ version as well as an editable version for teachers who would like to make amendments.
This resource is perfect for a fun end-of-term lesson for teachers hoping to inspire metacognitive reflection and self-regulated learning behaviours!

This workbook will help your students get much more from the documentaries you ask them to watch.
This workbook is designed to facilitate home-learning. There are so many amazing documentaries and videos students can learn from online: this workbook helps them to get the most out of such learning opportunities.
Simply set the documentaries you wish your students to watch and give them a copy of this workbook to complete!
The printable workbook develops independent learning skills, note-taking skills and mind-mapping skills in relation to videos and documentaries. It includes ten learning-sessions over twenty pages: teachers simply need to give students the details of the videos they need to watch for each session.
Teachers will find this homework booklet an effective way to enhance home-learning and reduce the work-load created by distance learning efforts.
This download does not include video-links: you simply need to add the videos titles/links that you want students to watch - the workbook does the rest!
This assessment wrapper is suitable for teachers of all subjects and is especially useful when doing practice exam papers.
The assessment wrapper is delivered via PowerPoint and features fifty metacognition and self-regulated learning activity slides; twenty-five that can be used before assessments and twenty-five that can be used after assessments. It also features an interactive ‘randomiser’ feature so that teachers can quickly load up the PowerPoint and generate random reflection tasks for the start and end of lessons.
Simply load up this PowerPoint when you’re doing assessment work with students: it will foster metacognition through its many pre and post-assessment student reflection tasks. Assessment wrappers are a straightforward way to foster metacognition and one of the most established and well-evidenced approaches to metacognition borne out by the research literature.
Alternatively, this assessment wrapper (with over fifty activity slides) can be used by teachers to enhance presentations they have already made: teachers can simply copy and paste slides from this resource into their own work – allowing for a more precise and integrated assessment wrapper effect to be used in the learning process.
This assessment wrapper (or exam wrapper) is of particular interest to teachers working with students who are preparing for formal examinations (e.g. GCSE exams) and is a great way to help them get more out of practice assessments!
This download includes student reflection worksheets for the start, middle, and end of each term. The download includes nine worksheets: three for each term, covering an entire school year. This product features three different worksheet formats.
Each of these colourful double-sided worksheets encourages students to engage in metacognition and self-regulated learning:
At the start of each term these worksheets encourage students to reflect on how the previous term went, how they have prepared for the new term, how they can improve their learning strategies, and how they can plan for success in the new term - anticipating challenges ahead.
The mid-term reflection worksheets encourage students to monitor progress, evaluate current approaches to learning, identify obstacles and reflect on how to overcome them, and anticipate the requirements of end-of-term assessments.
The end-of-term reflection worksheets help students to reflect on how the term went, the progress they have made, the quantity and quality of their learning, the strengths and weaknesses in their approaches to learning, how they can improve moving forward, and how they might be best prepared for the next term.
The worksheets emphasise target-setting at each stage and engage students in the self-regulated learning cycle (of planning, monitoring, evaluating, and regulating their approaches to learning.
The download includes easy-print .pdf versions of the worksheets as well as editable .doc (Microsoft Word) versions in-case you need to customise them for your students.
**This download includes over twenty worksheets & printables that focus on target-setting! **
The download includes:
6 x full-page double-sided worksheets
6 x half-page folding worksheets
6 x half-side mini worksheets
6 x small target-setting printables (e.g. 8/page)
The download includes editable .doc and easy-print .pdf formats of the worksheets.
Target-Setting, Metacognition & Self-Regulate Learning
Target-setting in the classroom can help to boost metacognition and self-regulated learning by providing students with clear goals and objectives that they can work towards. When students have a clear understanding of what they are working towards, they are more likely to engage in self-regulated learning behaviors such as planning, monitoring, and evaluating their own learning progress. This can help students to develop a better understanding of their own learning processes and how they can improve their performance over time.
Additionally, target-setting can help to promote metacognition by encouraging students to reflect on their own learning progress and identify areas where they need to improve. By setting targets that are challenging but achievable, students can develop a sense of ownership over their own learning and become more motivated to succeed.
This interactive PowerPoint uses a variety of activities to encourage student reflection and establish clear goals and targets.
This resource is ideal for quick target-setting activites in lessons or for structuring multiple target-setting sessions. The PowerPoint can be used multiple times with the same groups and encourages students to reflect on targets relating to: work quality, learning power, attitude to learning, subject knowledge, study-skills and long-term strategy.
The download includes both an editable file and an automated PowerPoint Show (recommended). The PowerPoint uses an integrated interactive menu that allows you to choose between thirty different activity slides (each with 3-4 activities).
