A series of revision activities for a summary lesson or revision lesson at the end of the topic.
1 - Key Term Cards. Great for playing bingo, describing to a partner, pictionary etc
2 - Crossword and answers
3 - brief points test
4 - applied exam questions
5 - blank summary table for students to complete
Two fun revision activities with students to ensure they read exam questions correctly and follow instructions.
1: Give all the students a chocolate (Cadburys heros work well) and they have to complete the sheet describing, evaluating, comparing their chocolate.
2: Students will need a blank sheet of paper for this. This is a fun activity to do with a group to ensure they read instructions. Students will complete a series of instructions which are pointless but it says to read all instructions first. If they do read them they will know only to complete one or two of them but most dont do this and end up completing all of them.
This is a very detailled presentation (47 slides) about approaching AQA exam questions.
It covers:
Evaluation
Comparison
Application
Terminology (e.g use of the words reliability and validity)
It gives advice and examples to demonstrate how to succeed in AQA exams. Great for a revision lesson with students.
A simple checklist for students on two pages for the whole of the New AQA Psychology specification
Covers Paper 1, Paper 2 and Gender, Forensic, Schizophrenia and debates for paper 3.
A full lesson or couple of lessons on cognitive interviews. Could take up to 2 hrs if needed.
Includes:
Powerpoint
Notes sheet - for students to take their notes into (includes essay plan and exam questions, activities and evaluation sheet)
Video link -to a great documentary which demonstrates use of cogntive interviews.
Also included is a link to an activity (takes about 20 mins) about detecting liars - not related to CI but the students find it interesting.
A couple revision lessons on the approaches - would take me at least 2-3 hours probably to cover this as its a 66 slide ppt with 10 documents in total. Couldlast even more if you get them to try out some of the exam questions and do all the worksheets.
PPT: Has short summaries of each of the approaches and then a series of exam questions, on each approach, to show key exam technique, advice for answering and sometimes sample answers.
Included is a student version with blanks to fill in, or to use to test their knowledge before going over each topic.
Documents: Includes a couple essay answer samples as well and lots of summary quick recall activities (blank table, key word knowledge check, crossword etc).
A document that examines what questions have been asked on previous topics before on AQA Psychology papers (Year 2 ones only).
It plots how many marks have been asked on each sub-topic and then colour codes the topics by how likely there is to be an exam question on them in the next exam:
Red - less likely
Green - Likely
Disclaimer: AQA does not follow a pattern with exam questions and there is every chance even the “red coded” areas can be asked. This is purely for teachers to use to devise mocks etc and I wouldn’t advise giving this to students.
Resource gives a basic overview of what I teach in each lesson for year 1 with dates of 2022-2023.
Good to show how long works well to spend on each area
