Are your students bored of the usual revision lessons. The home and away quiz resource contains 16 ten mark quizzes, each one containing 3-7 questions, many of which are based on exam/past paper questions. This is a great resource for teachers because it has questions from all topics on the syllabus and they can be used for tests in class. However, the 'game' is played between 2 students, and it is loosely based on the 'Home' and 'Away' concept of the questions asked on the BBC 'A question of Sport' Quiz! Students choose 1 quiz themselves, the home quiz, and are asked questions on this quiz by their opponent. The opponent then chooses the quiz, obviously choosing a tough 'Away' quiz in the hope the questions they are asked are not well answered. A mark sheet is used for tracking answers and recording results. You can use these to help guide any reports you need to write, as well as identify strengths and weaknesses so you can plan effective revision sessions for the class.
Differentiation (1) - if you play this as a 'ladder competition' it works well, especially if you have a group of competitive boys. Students are initially ranked by their ability or target grade. E.g. top 2 players (those with the highest are in the Champions League, next 2 players are in the Europa League, next 2 are in the Premiership. This continues until you have the bottom two players in the 'Dog and Duck Sunday League'... most of them find this funny, They play the home and away quiz against their opponent with the winning player being 'promoted' and the losing player being relegated... all except the winner in the top division who stays in that league and the loser in the lowest division who remains in that league.
Differentiation (2) - students choose the 'Home' quiz to suit their own strengths, great for developing confidence in the weaker students. The 'Away' quiz is chosen for each student by their opponent, and they can use previous quizzes to choose one that the student has answered poorly before, therefore there is repetition of the questions that they didn't answer well the last time.
Extension activities - 2 blank quiz sheets so students can write their own quizzes and cover the topics that you want to cover.
Cost - the price of £5 will only be temporary until I have sold 10 copies, or I get a few positive reviews, then I will be pushing the price up so buy early before the price increases... thinking about doubling it so best be quick! If you are struggling to buy it yourself ask your Head of Department to purchase a copy using dept. funds.
Email tonydowson@shapeperformance.co.uk with any queries/questions or to go on my mailing list... I am looking to get about 30 resources available on the TES in the next 2 months - I have hundreds, but I am working on some really quality ones that I won't be putting on here so please drop me an email if you want to get these once they are completed.
