Covers every topic in P1. These google forms are designed to allow you to either print or mail direct to you students and they can self assess what they know against the required specification. When completed either within the email or in an internet browser (works perfectly on mobile devices) the evaluation from the class is sent directly back to you where a breakdown of the responses is built into the form. (responses - summary of responses). **UPDATE** Google form versions can be accessed through the word document. 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.

All the modern hazard symbols covered by the curriculum gathered into one place. Images should be large enough for printing for displays. Check out my other resources for power points and worksheets related to these hazard symbols. display, safety, practical

Great little plenary chooser that your pupils will get used to fast. I recommend picking up a few D20 dice (10 for £3 on ebay) and giving one to each group. Then when you want to check understanding either at the end or part way through a lesson they roll the dice and do the corresponding activity. Pupils enjoy having a semblance of control but you still get the required plenary. If you want a more controlled experience have one pupil roll the dice and every pupil has to do that specific plenary. Digital dice rollers are also available online.
