Devices Cards

Devices cards - so year 11 can learn their devices/vocabulary! Some of the devices are suitable for lower years as well.

Easy to print on coloured paper, cut out, laminate, and cut out again.

Good for directing students to, so they gain some independence in their learning.

Device name on one side, and then stick the definition on the back. Example is often given.

Could be used for mix and match, or even as flashcards to test knowledge.
