This is a quick scavenger hunt activity that is great for revision of the CPS.
Students are given one of the larger cards with a topic on, relating to the CPS. They then have to find all of the cards that relate to that topic.
Students should then explain how the cards relate to the topic.
Teacher Note: The cards are in order - so the first row on page 2 relates to the first row on page 1 (e.g. budget cuts relates to the row that starts 25%).
