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

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.

Disposing of plastics active reading sheet

(8)
Active reading sheets get pupils to read the information several times and analyse it in different ways. Pupil read the sheet then re-read it to add titles to paragraphs, then re-read it to find the negatives, then re-read to find the positives, then re-read to find business strategies. A useful way to put across a lot of information without copying and with the knowledge that it will be read. Comments welcomed
