I post things that are finished and that work. I make resources when I can't find anything that works in the way which I want it to. If they don't work for you then let me know through the comments section and I'll try to put them right. If they do work and you like them then please comment too. Some things take a long time to make and to get right... so I charge a little for those.

Active reading sheets on earth structure and rocks

(9)
Active reading sheets mean that the pupils have to read them though several times in quick succession to get the answers. They choose the titles for the paragraphs and select data for later questions. Useful tool for conveying lots of info fast and generating discussion. The sedimentary rocks sheet is just an old-fashioned cut and sort into order. Give pupils the precut sheets as they are printed in order If you like this, leave a review, some constructive criticism or some questions.
