A template for creating work booklets for any subject. I've used them for primarily Opening Minds (used to teach PSHE, Citizenship and RE), along with a few for GCSE Geography and KS3 Humanities Homework. Simply outline the success criteria on the first page. I would then highlight the criteria achieved in one colour and the criteria to attempt to progress in another. Thus reducing marking workload. For each lesson, change the title and L/O and add any information, activities or required resources. Includes opportunities for DIRT, reflection and self-assessment.

Resources for teaching map skills to year 7 covering a range of skills Activities have been collated from a variety of free resources over the years - I'm sharing this SoW to help others with planning and resourcing. If there is work of yours I will happily credit it in the resource description, just let me know. Topics covered Longitude and latitude 4 and 6 figure grid references (some resources adapted from https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/4-and-6-figure-grid-references-6373196) Map symbols Scale (some resources adapted https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/what-is-scale-6169040 and https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/scale-drawing-and-maps-6280918) Height

This is a work in progress and has been created through collaboration with a number of teachers from both geography and history as part of online collaboration. Criteria may well change once the new GCSE grade descriptors are produced fro Geography and History but this is a starting point for others in the blue. This isn't definitive and is just an outline for assessment until greater detail has been provided by exam boards.

A 6x6 grid for encouraging students to get to know one another. Great for year 7 forms or new form groups. How to use Students need dice. In pairs they roll the dice to determine the cell coordinates. A student then asks the question in the cell and the other/s answer it. It could be printed off and laminated or simply displayed using a projector.

Powerpoint and card sort on the different types of pollution. \n\nThis was designed for a Set 3 group with a wide range of abilities (right from 2a to 5c) and they loved the Simpson theme throughout the lesson. \n\nThe card sort was given to the pupils as just the images, types of pollution and the sources then as the higher ability completed it they were given the effects to sort. \n\nThe lower ability students were given very simple effect cards with two or three words on each but I'm unable to find that document to add to the resource

Need to Know Learning Matrix I use these to assess student understanding and progress through the term and to provide quality feedback without the need for excessive comment writing. I simply put the matrix in the front of the students book, every time I mark their books I highlight the relevant criteria in one colour (usually yellow) and criteria I would like them to attempt in DIRT in another (usually pink). Once the criteria to attempt is achieved I simply tick it off on the matrix. In their books I will write WWW and list the codes for the criteria achieved. I will then draw steps to indicate how to level up and write the corresponding codes of criteria I want them to attempt. The Need to Know questions are based on the lessons & learning objectives over the term, which are also used to create the coded success criteria. I find this technique reduces the time I spend marking books however allows me to provide quality feedback and to clearly see progress over the term. Hope it's of use.
