Mind Maps for ALL of KS3 Science

Hand-crafted mind maps to support learning for the whole of the KS3 National Curriculum. Designed to be taught as a two-year course, across Year 7 and Year 8.

The mind maps could be given out as a handout at the beginning of a topic to give the ‘big picture’ of the unit, and then referred to throughout the unit and/or used to encourage students to look ahead at what is coming next.

They could also be used as a revision tool – questions on the mind map help students to see the point of each section and can also challenge them to add missing information or make their own better mind maps.

Each map is hand-drawn – pupils seem to prefer this to computer generated versions. They are scanned in as pdf files and I have included the powerpoint slides of each one as well – this is how I tend to use them most.

I have included a bonus file - some generic detention work for 11-16 pupils. This has been tried and tested and is a good way to use detention time to encourage reflection - especially useful when work is required at short notice.

Each set of resources is sold separately, so this bundle represents a saving of 25%.
