An exam wrapper (A.K.A. Cognitive Wrapper) is a worksheet that allows for before and after reflections when students are taking practice exam papers or undergoing assessments. This exam wrapper is suitable for all subjects and is a fantastic way to improve the value and usefulness of practice assessments. Please see the attached preview files to see the high quality of these double-sided, A4, colour, fully-editable, exam wrappers. Exam wrappers foster metacognition in students (i.e. getting to think about how they learn best and what factors are influencing their academic performance) - exam wrappers are frequently cited by researchers as an example of effective metacognition in schools. It is widely accepted that the use of exam wrappers is “best practice”: yet there are very few available online, and those that exist are often for university students and not suitable for younger people. This wrapper is designed for students aged 14-18 (KS4 & KS5) - and is designed to be fast, fun, and engaging. This download comprises one of five exam wrappers, you can buy all five versions in our bundle (linked below) and save money by doing so: using a variety of exam wrappers will help students to engage in a broader array of metacognitive reflection activities.

This download contains ten lesson wrappers: suitable for teachers of all subjects and appropriate for students aged 11-18. Lesson wrappers encourage metacognitive reflection at the very start and very end of lessons: they help students to monitor and regulate their learning and enhance metacognitive awareness. By downloading this complete set you can cycle between lesson wrappers and give students a variety of metacognitive reflection tasks. This resource saves a great deal of planning time and is a simple way to enhance your teaching practice with the latest metacognitive strategies. Simply print out one of these ten, double-sided, colour worksheets for your students: they should complete one side at the start of the lesson and one at the end. Each side should take no more than five minutes to complete - they look great! Thank you for looking at our resources!

The focus of the these teacher-training resources is simple: metacognitive teaching strategies, metacognition & self-regulated learning. These easy to use resources are perfect for Continued Professional Development (CPD) and are designed for in-house training, inset days and general teacher education.

These ten worksheets are designed to accompany any main task or learning activity in lessons. They are suitable for teachers of any subject and as a whole-school resource. Please see the preview images. We’ve based the design around established metacognitive theories that emphasise four stages of metacognition: planning, monitoring, evaluation & regulation. These unique worksheets are our best yet: they help students “think about thinking” with direct reference to the learning activity they are engaged in. The pack contains ten different worksheet designs [see preview images]. When printed and cut: each worksheet is 1/3 of a page (double-sided) and serves as a powerful and time-efficient way to foster metacognition in students when they are completing a learning activity. The worksheets are suitable for teachers and students (11-16) of any subject. Metacognition is a powerful way to boost learning-power: regular use of these worksheets will help students to use metacognitive learning strategies habitually. The colourful double-sided designs look great in exercise books and it makes your work with metacognition & self-regulated learning very clear for others to see.
