These forms are designed to allow you to print for your students so they can self assess what they know against the required specification.
**UPDATE** interactive form versions included in the link so you can edit and send the forms to your pupils digitally.
Each form only takes pupils a few minutes to fill out and are much quicker than traditional Red/amber/green self assessments.
Ideally complete after the lesson is taught, at the beginning of any revision period and at the end of a revision session.assessments.

Large card sorts -ideal for starter, plenary, main or revision activity.
Suitable for a wide range of abilities.
Great for working in mixed ability pairs.
These are large (10 cards per page) recommended size for revision as part of a circus of activities, for multiple sets it is recommended that you use the smaller version (20 cards per page).

Small card sorts -ideal for starter, plenary, main or revision activity. Suitable for a wide range of abilities and great for working in mixed ability pairs.
These are small (20 cards per page) recommended size for revision as with multiple sets. If only one or two sets are needed it is recommended you use the larger versions.

A collection of resources to help with teaching AQA C1.2 Limestone and building materials.
Includes card sorts ready made in small and large - print these on coloured card and laminate for the best effect.
Includes mini test for a starter to judge prior knowledge, or used as a summative activity at the end of the lesson.
Includes Limestone cycle fold activity and instructions.
Includes:

Mendeleyeev's periodic table and the modern periodic table.
I planned this for a medium ability group for a double period.
Either print the worksheets directly from the powerpoint (1, 2 or 6 per page) or print from the included pdfs.
Just start the lesson off with the settler, them amaze them with the curious life of Dimitri Ivanov Mendeleyev. inventor of the phrase 40% proof. (Seriously, he also worked for the weights and measures department and standardised Russian Vodka)

Pupils are given this guide to writing up practical investigations. They can tick off each section after they think they have answered it, identifying what they need to do for each mark. Includes all common sections of a write up including hypothesis, method, diagram, graph, results table, context, analysis and evaluation. The resultant marks are added up to give a pupil a sub level based upon the number of marks they have achieved.
This works very well for independent working as well as peer and self assessment after they have finished. I also find it very useful myself when marking.
Includes full lesson with starter, plenary, timings and AFL. Look at the periodic table, subatomic particles, and electronic configuration. Use the PDFs to produce electron configuration whiteboards for immediate feedback from the whole class. Use the simple periodic tables and pupils can look up their own data for quickfire assessments.\n\nperiodic table, electron shells, energy levels, assessment
Four adapted articles covering; Antibiotic resistance, Ebola virus outbreak, Facebook's unethical research, and the destruction of the coral reef food chain.
I use these as posters in my form room but they can be used for a variety of different uses.

A simple card sort for al the different stages in an investigation write up:
Diagram , apparatus, hypothesis, method etc.
Pupils have to identify what the definition is and an example of each.
This worksheet challenges pupils to think about the risks involved with their investigations and to prioritise them as if they were producing a risk assessment. I will be updating this later as I have some ideas for a more engaging challenge for the pupils to complete.\n\nControlled Assessment, CA, risks, variables, hazards, risk assessment
Pupils use a comprehensive card sort activity to explain what happened the night f the fire. Pupils have a large number of events and will learn about the problems associated with combustion.\n\nAlso includes avery simple picture guide to the Controlled assessment for the candles in the beakers. I had these cut out and laminated so the pupils had to arrange their method themselves first for the controlled assessment.
Since 2007 the hazard symbols used worldwide have been changing to these new pictograms. I have yet to see resources using them in schools.\n\nPupils need to know what these mean and so I have updated some of the usual activities and collected together all the important images.\n\nIncludes a powerpoint explaining in simple terms what the pictograms mean.\n\nhazard symbols, safety, laboratory, year 7
Really Simple A5 Worksheet, Pupils assess their own and others' contribution to the group work. Useful for a number of situations where teamwork is important for your learning objectives.
