This card sort is a quick fire starter for revision sessions at Year 13
Students are given a set of cards for a particular topic and then have to sort them into the correct structure for the problem (scenario) question.
How I Use These Cards
I put students in pairs/small groups and give them each one topic. Once they have correctly sorted it they can do the next topic. The group with the most complete topics at the end of 3 minutes gets a prize.
Printing Notes
Set your printer to: Print Along Short Edge
This will mean the cards are printed flipped so that the back matches the front! If you do long edge then this won’t work. I recommend doing a test print of pages 1 & 2 first to ensure your formatting is working!

Evaluation Tips
Slide of top evaluation tips
Slide of generic evaluation points - these are points that students can make if they cannot think of anything or have a brain freeze in the exam
Activity 1 - Essay Plan Match-Up
In pairs students will be given an essay title and then arguments for and against.
They should use these arguments to create an essay plan answering the question.
Students should use this structure:
Point
Counter-Point
Point
This will need printing and cutting up. I recommend laminating and tying together with bands so they can be reused

Create a mind-map of reform proposals for each of the areas of law listed.
There are three areas of law listed for tort, criminal and contract
Activity 3 - Essay Practice
Create an essay plan for each of the essay questions listed.
Students can work individually, in groups or pairs.
There are three essay questions listed for tort, criminal and contract.
Plenary

An evaluation point is displayed and students should select the legal authority that supports the point.
The link to the Kahoot is provided in the notes section of the PowerPoint.
