An adaption of the Balloon Debate but instead of students taking on roles, they are a committee choosing survivors. There are 2 or three stage to each scenario each one giving the students a little more information on the characters.
I have created 4 scenarios:
Lifeboat
Super Volcano Eruption
Zombie Outbreak
Neutron Star
I use a Charcoal peel off facemask to cover information on the character cards so information is drip fed to them rather than all at once.
Two booklets to support mentoring 6th form students on a weekly basis. Each week they are asked to reflect on their successes, Their struggles and what they are going to do about them, and their learning.
The booklet also gets the students to think about their long term, medium term and short term goals.
As a tutor you can look through and see if any issues are arising and get ahead of them.
booklets are in editable format so you can adapt for your own schools reporting system.

I give this out at the start of the year so they can use it when doing exam practice in class or at home. I also allow them to use it in the first couple of assessments and then phase it out.
I print it on bright paper and laminate it so that it lasts the year, but could also be stuck in exercise books.
