This pack contains 6 word download files that are aimed at helping students work on how to break down questions in order to answer them efficiently for the most marks. There is a 4 square sheet ideal for exam question structuring and a great tool for AFL to check students have grasped the topic and how to use their knowledge to answer a question. There is also a dual sided worksheet which is aimed at questions that focus on studies, this enables students to break down what the study is about on one half, then be able to use that information and focus it on the question. Sometimes, students find it hard to use their knowledge in the correct way, this sheet helps and comes with an instruction download to give you some ideas on how to use it. There is also a study breakdown worksheet useful for revision and a STEM worksheet which helps students to identify the psychology in the question and link it to the examples in the stem. These resources are unlocked and so you can type on them, alter them or just print them as they are and come with 5 PNG image files that you can print out any size you prefer. If anyone is interested in these individually they will be added in the next few days as well as other resources aimed at helping students tackle exam questions, and guide them in how to structure answers in order to gain better results.

This A3 printable features a human body and is a great resource to print and laminate for best value and use. It is a double sided resource, though can be printed and used to make a display poster highlighting the body in its 2 states of relaxation and anxiety. On one side a group talks about what it feels like to be relaxed - how they feel physiologically and mentally and then they flip it over and think about a time they felt scared or anxious (perhaps reacting to a phobic stimulus) and they populate this side with how they feel physiologically and mentally. A nice starter task to the endocrine system, rather than a part of the topic - if you use this initially you can get them thinking about bodily changes before you even get on to the more in depth details of the endocrine system and the fight or flight response. You could go back to this later on and revisit the task when you get to the endocrine system and draw out the important sites within the endocrine system.

This is an activity to be used to help students understand the problems faced with diagnosis. It consists of a 3 page document. Page 1 to be printed on one sheet and page 2 and 3 to be printed double sided. The students use a symptom sheet for 3 disorders that have similar symptoms and use this to populate a tick box sheet - they can tick, or shade the boxes for the disorders that have the same symptoms which then enables them to see the issues with co-morbidity and how a disorder can easily be diagnosed. A great tool to help students understand what co-morbidity is. And can be used to help them distinguish the symptoms of schizophrenia - can be used with scenarios which have been added to this download - or at least some examples of scenarios. You could develop your own if you wanted, these were just a few I came up with.

This resource is inspired by an article in Psychological Review, in which I have taken the premise, summarised and provided examples and then given 3 questions to use as worked examples for the student to put the learning into practice. On the rear are the command terms used by Ofqual and AQA which helps the student understand the words they can expect to see and what each of those words means in terms of their requirement in correctly and successfully answering a question.
