This saves time (since no printing is required) and it saves resources which is good for both the environment and the budget. This lesson wrapper is delivered via PowerPoint and features fifty metacognition and self-regulated learning activity slides; twenty-five that can be used at the start of lessons and twenty-five that can be used at the end of lessons. It also features an interactive ‘randomiser’ feature so that teachers can quickly load up the PowerPoint and generate random reflection tasks for the start and end of lessons. For simplicity and convenient this download includes: The Virtual Lesson Wrapper Generator [Auto-Play Version] The Virtual Lesson Wrapper Generator [Editable Version] Teachers can load The Virtual Lesson Wrapper Generator alongside the resources they are using for there lessons. The download also includes separate files so that teachers can easily copy and paste any of the slides into their own presentations, incorporating metacognitive and self-regulated learning reflection activities into the lessons they have already prepared.

Answer The Question What’s The Best Definition? The answers are revealed via the included PowerPoint presentation file after the quiz has been completed: a teacher’s answer sheet is also included. To enhance the value of the quiz in terms of metacognition and self-regulated learning each question slide also includes a student reflection extension question. Teachers can award extra points to students who give good answers to these reflection questions which will encourage students to engage in the reflection questions. The quiz is suitable for students aged 11-16 and can be differentiated for different age and ability groups by changing the size of the teams.
