These powerpoint starters provide you with 3 LEARNING PYRAMIDS focused on the Applied Anatomy & Physiology section of the AQA GCSE (9-1) specification. Answers are displayed in stages within the powerpoint to allow comprehensive self or peer marking (another time saver!).
Each LEARNING PYRAMID tests the students in the key areas of Knowledge (AO1), Application (AO2) and Evaluation (AO3).
Students are presented with:
3 Knowledge questions RED
2 Application questions AMBER
1 Evaluation question GREEN
EXCELLENT REVISION TOOL
I give my students 10 minutes to complete one LEARNING PYRAMID (timer on-screen) which corresponds with the typical
’1 mark per minute’ approach to GCSE PE theory exams.
Also provided are students answer sheets in both printable JPEG form and editable form.
