Without doubt my most effective resource for helping students tackle exam questions effectively!
Full Marks! focuses on making students consider really carefully the number of marks available for each question and thinking hard in order to find the corresponding number of DIFFERENT points.

A fully interactive set of PowerPoint slides with 30 questions associated with diet and nutrition, this resource enables you to show the key concept and number of DIFFERENT points that have to be successfully found by the students. It's so effective because it makes students realise there is no scope for waffle and it encourages them to think about what a mark scheme would look like for each question.
Alternatively, simple interactivity allows you to show the DIFFERENT points on the slide and your pupils have to determine which key concept is in the question.
Perfect for whole class activities such as starters and plenaries, but also excellent for personalised learning by distributing this resource to individuals on their tablets through Showbie or your school VLE. Students will need to download the PowerPoint app (for free) from the App store or Google Play to benefit from the interactivity of this resource.
A must have for all PE teachers!
Application of knowledge is the key to success!
Receiving information and recalling content at a superficial level may help students to an extent. But what about their ability to apply the knowledge they have learnt?
In this fun, interactive and versatile resource, 'Apply Your Knowledge', students choose key terms on the muscular system by selecting a number and are challenged to make connections and links between the concepts and then apply their knowledge in a practical sporting example.
For example, a student clicking three numbers at random might reveal these three key words: biceps, concentric contraction and flexion. The student might offer the connection that flexion takes place at the elbow when the bicep muscle contracts, using a concentric contraction. An example of this is a bicep curl in weight training or when a rugby player makes a tackle.
This resource can be used as a whole class activity or for personalised learning when distributed to students' mobile devices (use the PowerPoint app to get full interactivity). The resource can also be printed and students can choose which key terms they want to connect and apply their knowledge to.
A great activity to challenge all abilities, it can be used at the start of this unit to gauge students' prior knowledge as well as during and at the end of the unit to assess learning, knowledge, understanding and application.
Do your students find it hard to distinguish between similar concepts?
This set of 50 'What's the difference between?' flashcards on diet and nutrition allows your students to grapple with concepts such as the differences between simple and complex carbohydrates, the difference between the role of vitamins and minerals and the difference between macronutrients and micronutrients, to name just a few.
You can use these question cards when you introduce diet and nutrition to gauge the level of students' prior knowledge. Equally, they can be used during the learning of the topic and afterwards to assess knowledge and understanding. They're also great for interactive revision.
They can be projected on your whiteboard for whole class interaction or printed out (in various different sizes, in black & white as well as colour) and used as a learning resource by individual students or small groups.
Why not display them on your classroom wall, in the PE corridor, in the sports hall or in the changing rooms? There's plenty of scope to use these cards creatively to the benefit of your students.
An engaging interactive drag and drop activity for your students to use on their mobile devices as well as on school PCs and laptops.
Students have unlimited attempts to correctly label the skeleton. When they have finished each attempt they click the submit button to receive feedback on whether they have been successful or not. When successfully completed students can take a screen shot and store the image in their appropriate folder or print to keep in their file or book.

OK, so you've taught the theory (the content knowledge), but what about your students' essay writing skills?
Your students will have to write extended answers in their exams, but do they know 'what a good one looks like'?
Do they know how to construct high quality pieces of written work which fully answers the questions asked and gives appropriate examples from sport when requested.
This resource on attribution theory provides extended essay model answers to questions on Weiner's model of attribution theory and the concept of attribution retraining as well as learned helplessness and mastery orientation.
The exam style questions area:
Using practical examples explain the meaning of learned helplessness and mastery orientation. Explain how a hockey coach could promote mastery orientation in her players? (10 marks)
Using practical examples from tennis explain Weiner’s model of attribution theory. (8 marks)
They are a perfect reference to give to your students as model answers after they have attempted the questions themselves.
By working through the model answers with your students and analysing the features of the model that make it a strong response, (or how it could be improved still further!), they will be able to build up a greater appreciation of 'what a good one looks like' and what they have to do in order to produce high quality pieces of writing themselves.
Simply download this resource, select the blue boxes and delete them to reveal the full model answer responses which you can distribute to your students.
What a great way to introduce attribution theory!
Instead of starting this topic with direct input from yourself as the teacher, why not get your students grappling with this engaging activity designed to help them really get to grips with understanding Weiner's model of attribution theory?
Here's how it works:
Students have a brief introduction to the concept of attribution theory.
They then read the captain's match report and have to decide for themselves whether each of the underlined sentences or phrases (attributions) fall into one of the four categories: ability, effort, task difficulty or luck.
Then open the activity up for discussion amongst your students to see where they have placed each of the attributions and to check understanding and misconceptions. Because students are working out the solutions themselves and with one another richer learning and deeper understanding takes place.

This is an interactive multiple choice resource using PowerPoint which will really help you assess your students' learning. Not many other multiple choice resources offer so much.
1. Exam style questions are displayed - without initially showing any possible answer. This encourages students to think about what the correct answer might be, before the responses are shown. So you can also use this resource for short answer questions.
2. Students can then click on each of the numbers to make the corresponding response appear.
3. If a student is sure that a particular response is incorrect, they can click on the corresponding number again to make the response disappear - thus helping to develop good exam technique as eliminating incorrect responses is good exam practice.
4. Students then choose which answer is correct and click on the main text of the response to receive immediate feedback about their response. If they are correct, the response turns green, however, if the response is incorrect the response turns red AND feedback about that response is provided, thus helping students move forward with their learning.
This is also an excellent resource to use for whole class teaching on the interactive whiteboard as a starter or plenary activity and it great for assessing learning.
