Now that the “Advance Information” has been released by AQA I have put together an AQA exam question revision and assessment pack following the “major focus” list. This is themed so that it can be uploaded, completed and reviewed independently by the pupils as the mark scheme and examiners report are included. Or it can broken down to be completed in class over a few lessons. The pack is approximately 2.5-3 hrs worth of questions using the AQA times. The booklet starts with a review front sheet which lists all the specification points being reviewed. There is then a spec point break down and two questions per focus. One question followed by a more challenging one. It then ends with required practical themed questions. Each question has a place to record scores and review through a WWW and EBI list. There is then space for self review/feedback.

A set of resources mapping to the Earth spec codes from the new AQA KS3 Science specification. 3.7.3-3.7.4 Covering 7-8 lessons. A sequence of lessons covering all areas of the specification. Lesson PowerPoint’s of theory and differentiated tasks following an all, most and some principle. Mark schemes included to aid pupil self assessment. All theory presented for teacher to read through as you go. This leads to pupil tasks and resources that are differentiated and range in literacy and numeracy as well. At the end is a multiple choice assessment which can then be peer marked with a review by the teacher.

If you want some targeted revision structure and pupil resources, then this resource may help. A set of exam question packs and past paper analysis to aid year 11 revision for foundation and higher. Each pack is roughly two hours of exam questions and includes all markschemes and examiner reports. (Two documents per tier. One just questions and the other questions, markscheme and examineers report. How is it different from other resources? They are themed around the specification points that HAVE NOT APPEARED in the last two years (or very infrequently). This works on the basis that spec codes roughly fall on a three-year cycle with AQA exams and therefore could likely appear in this year’s exam papers. Therefore each question pack contains two full exam questions for each spec point not assessed in the last two years and one full exam question, in rank order, for those assessed infrequently. It also includes the full analysis of spec points for both tiers over both years and filterable spec lists that could enable some structure to the lesson content covered as revision. Hopefully this will lead to a more productive approach, in terms of revision topics and time management, for both pupils and teachers. How does it work? (Finer detail) It highlights spec codes that HAVE NOT appeared in the last two years of exams or have a low relative frequency, leading to a very high probability of most of them appearing in the summer exams. This tool has analysed both papers for both years and completed a frequency count of each spec code. This summarises into a combined table to prepare for the summer exams. It highlights spec codes that have not been assessed by showing as green. It colours through a spectrum of green to red, of other specs which have been assessed, but infrequently. It shows this by a simple frequency count and relative frequency. The relative analysis tool shows how common it has appeared relative to the number of spec points. A low frequency could still have a high relative frequency if there aren’t that many spec point in that section, showing a lower probability. There is also a combined summary for F and H papers if you teach mixed groups. Each analysis is shown graphically leading to easy displays for pupils to review key areas and target their focus. On the following tabs there is a full spec checklist filterable by their appearance in either F, H or both so pupils can view this information in a checklist explaining each spec point. This has then led to a checklist revision list for both F and H papers and a ranking order of likely topics to appear in the summer papers starting with units where a spec has not been assessed and then leading into those with low relative frequencies.

If you’ve ever wanted to be able to guarantee that your pupils are reviewing all areas of the course, then this resource should help. The “All Spec Review” (I have a free resource for Foundation Biology Paper 1 that will enable you to see what this pack contains) Before a full paper is completed by your pupils you will likely revise the different chapters within the assessment paper. But how do you check they understand or how do they? This questions pack contains past exam questions that meet every specification point for the tier and paper being reviewed. I have analysed every question from every past paper to collate which question meets which specification points. From this analyse I have put together a question pack that the pupil can work through that is guaranteed to cover every specification point at least once, if not a few times. Using AQA exam timings these booklets contain at least a couple of hours of work. Broken down with revision, or completed open book, this could be many hours of work in class or at home. This resource contains a PowerPoint slide to put up that has the breakdown of question versus spec point. It then has a teacher version with questions, markscheme and examiner report and a pupil version with just questions. At the start of the pack there is a review table for the pupils to keep track of questions and specification points they are strong or weak in. Hope this helps and builds to a full review of everything needing to be covered.

Want to quickly and easily review a chapter of the AQA Combined Science Trilogy specification? Want to be able to lead pupils to a targeted revision list to enable them to close their gaps? This revision resource consists of a range of questions across the specific specification points. There are a minimum of two questions per spec code. The specification document has been closely used to guarantee the correct use of terminology and phrasing. This leads to pupils then self-marking after each sub topic. This will consist of them marking and noting the identified spec code in a WWW or EBI list. Once the quiz is completed they will then follow the instructions to create their own personalised review of the full quiz and self-generate their personalised revision list by specification name using the supplied list. This activity is 1-2 lessons depending on the depth of revision time you allow the pupils though these tasks can be class or homework. Lesson plan included.
