These bookmarks contain a mix of keyword definitions and self test questions for revision. They can be issued to students at the beginning of the topic and used as a bookmark in their exercise books, so they always have the definitions of keywords to hand. When folded in two, the questions can be used for revision to check understanding.

This lesson begins with revision activities on the nervous system and reflex arc. Students then work collaboratively to write a model answer. Their work is then used as a basis to answer a second question on the reflex arc.
The main activity is a dictogloss. Dictogloss is a form of dictation, but it is designed to support grammatical accuracy and is a useful tool for developing oracy in the classroom. It is of particular advantage to learners of EAL but will benefit other learners who struggle to write fluently.
When reading the model answer, it is important to speak slowly and clearly but not so slowly that it works as a standard dictation. Students need to work in pairs to reconstruct the text which makes them think about how language is structured.
By completing the second exam style question independently, students gain the opportunity for the knowledge of both the science and the sentence structures to become embedded
