This download includes four PLC templates: teachers need simply need to add the list of topics for their respective subjects and they are ready to go. On the reverse side of each learning checklist is a series of metacognitive reflection tasks and target-setting activities: this enhances the usefulness of the learning checklist and helps students to use of their self-monitoring and evaluation work to steer, direct and regulate learning. Personal Learning Checklists (PLCs) feature lists of all required learning for a unit or course: students run through the list, indicating for each topic how confident they feel in relation to it and how secure their learning is. Personal learning checklists are a fantastic example of self-regulated learning and metacognition since students can use them to monitor and evaluate their learning and then plan and regulate it accordingly. Personal Learning Checklists should be used by all teachers in all subjects: they are especially useful in subjects where students are preparing for formal summative assessments [exams] and, ideally, the list of topics on the checklist should be faithful to the exam specification they are using. Please note: the preview images depict completed templates for illustrative purposes, teachers will need to add topics for their respective subjects/units before using the PLCs.

These ten worksheets are designed to accompany any main task or learning activity in lessons. They are suitable for teachers of any subject and as a whole-school resource. Please see the preview images. We’ve based the design around established metacognitive theories that emphasise four stages of metacognition: planning, monitoring, evaluation & regulation. These unique worksheets are our best yet: they help students “think about thinking” with direct reference to the learning activity they are engaged in. The pack contains ten different worksheet designs [see preview images]. When printed and cut: each worksheet is 1/3 of a page (double-sided) and serves as a powerful and time-efficient way to foster metacognition in students when they are completing a learning activity. The worksheets are suitable for teachers and students (11-16) of any subject. Metacognition is a powerful way to boost learning-power: regular use of these worksheets will help students to use metacognitive learning strategies habitually. The colourful double-sided designs look great in exercise books and it makes your work with metacognition & self-regulated learning very clear for others to see.
