Included in the resource: 15 circuit component information sheets (2 per A4 sheet) Including component name, electrical circuit symbol and it’s role in an electrical circuit. Examples: fuse, switch, bulb, diode, thermistor, resistor, battery etc . . . A student information collection table Used to gather the information from the sheets in one place. Students are advised to fill in the table as far as they can, then use the information sheets for assistive learning. This resource is ideal for a student focused approach to teaching electrical circuit symbols. I print off the information sheets and stick them around the classroom. Students can then roam around with their collection tables and fill them in as they pass each information sheet or ‘collection point’. Practical, keeps the students engaged and no further preparation required. Just print!

Space Keyword Spin Wheel Revision Resource This resource encompasses 12 keywords from the space unit. These are keywords selected as they occur regularly and are classically challenging for students to define. Example keywords from the spin wheel resource: Galaxy, Asteroid Belt, Solar System, Moon, Star etc. . . Also included in the resource is a full answer set. There is also an instructions sheet, with helpful guidance on using the spin wheel as a revision tool, student answer sheet and a ‘tick and repeat sheet’. This encourages the student to revisit the spin wheel to revise the keywords until they reach the ‘know it’ level. Very simple preparation: Print the sheets (set up in A4 PDF). The students can then cut out the pin wheel for themselves and push a pen or pencil through the middle for the wheel to spin around. I found clamp stands to be a useful alternative. Feel free to ask questions before purchasing this product.
