Active reading sheets get pupils to read the information several times and analyse it in different ways. Pupil read the sheet then re-read it to add titles to paragraphs, then re-read it to find the negatives, then re-read to find the positives, then re-read to find business strategies. A useful way to put across a lot of information without copying and with the knowledge that it will be read. Comments welcomed

The first page is the Q&A sheet, with questions from the syllabus. Higher tier questions in bold type. Students can revise alone, just fold down the middle. Or with a partner, the advantage being that the partner has the correct answers, so they don't have to invent questions or make up answers. Great for parental involvement in revision. The second page has the answers removed and can be used for testing. No need for you to mark it, if the pupils have their copy of the QéA sheet they can peer or self mark and then set targets.
