Differentiation and Randomisation Teacher Tool
Tired of spending time grouping your pupils by ability or for support. Want to group by literacy or numeracy. Feed up of the same pupils answering questions. Don't wont to waste time with the named lolly sticks random approach. Then this quick to set up, even quicker to use tool is for you.
A whole school, non-subject specific tool designed to use a list of pupil names with linking subject, literacy and numeracy data as a teaching aid. Once the data is pasted in, which is a few minutes of work, then all tasks are completed for you by clicking built in buttons within the spreadsheet.
The two main features are:
Data related selection and grouping
Random selection of single or grouped pupils. The main purpose of the use of random selection is to keep pupil focus as it removes choice from the teacher.
Selecting which task you want is as easy as selecting the right tab at the bottom and then clicking the required buttons. It’s that simple.
It will sort into differentiated groups of similar abilities based on either subject data, literacy data or numeracy data, with an included feature of randomly selecting these groups for feedback or other tasks. Refresh to arrange by a different choice. It will also arrange by groups with ranged abilities for peer support work, again on subject, literacy or numeracy with a random group selector option as well. It will randomly select a single pupil from a class list to keep pupils focussed and on task. It will also randomly group your class into groups from 2-10 based on your selection. It has a random number selector where you can select the min and max values if you wish to randomly select values to use. You may have numbered groups and then this will select which group answers.
This is designed to be an all-round supportive teaching aid for you to be able to very easily and quickly differentiate, peer support and randomise your classes. Easily copied and pasted into PowerPoint to display groups to pupils with no raw data in view. Good for seating plans and ready to use instantly for your classes once data is in.
Update your data termly to keep grouping relevant to your teaching needs.
A set of MOCK data has been left in the document so that you can see how it should work upon download. Replace with your groups and off you go.
Cross Curricular Creative Project: Science, English and ICT
This is a set of lessons, resources, homework and schemes of work targeted at cross curricular links between Science, English and ICT for KS3 pupil. The theme is “Your Favourite Movie” and the pupils are to build a portfolio of graded activities to create their project.
It was designed to fit the timetable for my school where the year 7 and 8’s had a creative curriculum day once a week with three teachers assigned; one Science, English and ICT. The pupils would then take a lead on how they would manage their time over a term. They would select from a range of activities each week, themed to each subject, and would allocate themselves for the day. All these activities would then build up to their “Creative Diploma” for that term. It worked by building a project from their 6 best activities from a selection of 9. This obviously may not fit your timetable model but could easily be adapted to be run over a much longer period of time as cross curricular after school clubs of summer holiday projects etc.
Each activity is built up from many smaller tasks leading to a grade for that piece of work using level ladders. All tasks are written and presentable straight to the pupils with clear guidance, instructions, tasks, questions, homework and level ladders. The level ladders are based around now, next, further and advanced so not grade or level based but easily editable to fit your school model.
Activities range from building circuits, podcasts, web design, writing scripts, costume design, cameras and lenses, the behaviour of light and filters and theme songs. Each individual activity linked back to their “Favourite Movie” concept building a solid link between these three subjects.
A fun and practical way to cover a huge variety of subjects and topics from within these three specific curriculums.
AQA Combined Science Trilogy: 5.3.2 Amount of substances, Masses and Moles
A set of resources mapping to spec codes from the new AQA Combined Science Trilogy. 5.2.3.1-5.2.3.5
A sequence of lessons covering all areas of the specification. Lesson PowerPoint's of theory and differentiated tasks following an all, most and some principle.
All theory presented for teacher to read through as you go. This leads to pupil tasks and resources that are differentiated and range in literacy and numeracy as well
1-9 Tracking Pupil Labels
A set of documents for either a 3 year or 2 year GCSE course.
This will generate large tracking labels that can be stuck to the front of a folder or book. All you have to do is paste in names, class, subject and target and the rest is done for you. This will work for 200+ pupils but can just be done for a single class. Each label is half an A4 so you get two to a sheet.
It will present as a table that shows termly expected data leading to the pupils target over the full course. This can then be filled in each term to record their actual working at grade. From this progress can be calculated each term.
This enables pupils to know where they should be and when they are slipping behind.
It all requires is some pasting, mail merge and then print.
Easy.
Careers in Science
Documents to produce a flow chart display of careers from KS2 through to degree and future careers. All headings and pictures included and organised for you to generate display.
ISA Core or Additional Tracker
An AQA template designed to record and analyse ISA results. Scores are recorded per question for gap analysis. Overall grades compared to targets. Progress calculated per pupil and scores converted to UMS following AQA grade boundaries. Easily modified to match any ISA completed.
Lesson Starter Templates
11 easy and quick to use templates that can be added to any PowerPoint to start a lesson. I have included examples of how they are used as well. The main focus is on literacy and numeracy through the use of key words which can be used as an intro into a lessons or a review of the last one.
AQA Combined Science Trilogy 1-9 Formula Display
A4 physics formulas. Both word and symbol included with units. Printed in colour it will make a good formula display. Or can be printed as hand out for revision and revision cards. I have had pupils complete notes on the reverse completing example questions based on each formula.
P2: AQA Additional Physics Revision and 2017 Exam Support.
All spec codes must be examined through a three year period with AQA exams. This is a spec code frequency analysis of 2015-16 exams for both foundation and higher exam papers leading to very specific lesson focus and pupil revision. It highlights spec codes that HAVE NOT appeared in the last two years leading to a very high probability of them appearing in summer 2017.
This tool has analysed 2016 and 2015 exam papers and completed a frequency count of each lettered spec code. This summarises into a combined table to prepare for the 2017 exams.
It highlights lettered spec codes that have not been assessed in the last two years by showing as green. Being the last year of AQA Additional exams before the 1-9 exams there is a very high probability of possible topics that will appear in the summer exams. It colours through a spectrum of red to green, of other specs which have been assessed, but infrequently. It shows this by a simple count and relative frequency to the number of spec codes. The relative analysis tool shows how common it has appeared in the last two years relative to the number of spec points. A low spec count could still have a high relative count showing a lower probability. There is also a combined summary for F and H papers if you teach mixed groups.
Each analyse is shown graphically leading to easy displays for pupils to review key areas to focus.
On following tabs there is a full spec checklist filterable by their appearance in either F, H or both so pupils can view this information in a checklist explaining each spec point. This has then lead to a checklist revision list for both F and H papers.
A F and H revision pack is then included with past exam question specifically themed on these areas to help support and lead revision up to the summer exams. Mark schemes and examiners reports are included for these questions.
The aim of the support pack is to help prepare for the summer exams of 2017. This is a very unique situation where we can have a good chance of using this analyse to target revision and focus the pupils.

AQA Combined Trilogy Physics Paper 1 Revision and 2019 Exam Support
All spec codes must be examined through a three-year period with AQA exams. This is a spec code frequency analysis of the 2018 exams for both foundation and higher exam papers leading to very specific lesson focus and pupil revision. It highlights spec codes that HAVE NOT appeared in last year’s exams or very infrequently, leading to a very high probability of most of them appearing in summer 2019. (Some spec point could be assessed in 2020 and still meet the three-year rule.)
This tool has analysed 2018 foundation and higher exam papers and completed a frequency count of each spec code. This summarises into a combined table to prepare for the 2019 exams.
