Review - Analysis - Progress
These are used as a structured revision homework for students.
They are written for the new Biology (examined from 2018) AQA scheme.
Material aimed only for Separate science is indicated.
I have used these to great effect in order to ensure students use more focussed revision.
This contains all the glossaries for the AQA A-level Biology Scheme. All words and definitions are numbered.
These can be used in conjunction with the following resources…
Quick quiz templates
Definition templates
SOLO hexagons
Quiz quiz trade cards
The same numbering system is used for the hexagons and quiz quiz trade cards.
Includes 2 different versions of 7 steps. These can be used as poster displays and/or into students' exercise books. Allows for explicit reference when challenging students abut their behaviours and efforts.
This is a resource to demonstrate progress. It can be used with any subject material. Students should be given the opportunity to attempt the F.A.I.L. (first attempt in learning) before they are introduced to a topic or concept. Once the learning has taken place they can then complete the S.A.I.L. (second attempt in learning). These can then be assessed and feedback provided. Students can then be encouraged to identify their strengths, weaknesses and next steps.
Contains all the key words and definitions for the whole AQA A2 Biology course.
Best used in conjunction with Quick quiz sheets and definition sheets.
Also supported by Quiz quiz trade cards.
All words are numbered on both the Quiz quiz trade cards and the glossaries themselves.
Glossary also contains suggested SOLO linked revision strategies.
Quick quiz sheet also incudes marking system so students can analyse their results to a greater depth.
Students have found this resource and the others suggested invaluable in supporting their long term retention of key information.
12 A3 (or smaller!) posters containing all the Physics KS4 glossary words. Work well in conjunction with Glossaries, Quick quizzes and Quiz quiz trade cards.
This is a scaffold for students to make notes about any particular topic. Works well if the initial ideas section is first completed before being taught. The remaining sections are then filled in during and/or after they have been taught the topic.
I have used this with Y7 through to Y13 primarily with science, however, it could be used with any subject and any age range.
Contains full GSCE AQA glossaries. Also includes quick quizzes, quiz quiz trade cards, display posters and much more - all these resources are cross matched and numbered so they can be used in conjuntion with each other. Materials are for Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Includes both trilogy and separate science materials - Separate materials are indicated on each resource to allow students to access the relevant course information.
This is a modified version of a note taking scaffold based around the Cornell model. Students should initially complete the title and objectives. They should then add processed information into the main notes section - this can be in the form of prose, bullet points or even mind maps. Simultaneously they should add key terminology and most importantly fill in the left hand column. This is a reflective section, basically is a record of their inner voice. After the note taking is complete then students should write a short summary (3-4 sentences) and then do the M.I.P. M.I.P. stands for most important point - this should be no more than 3 words (ideally 1).
This scaffold can be used with any subject, any age and for any form of input; e.g. video, teacher talk, written information, Internet research.
This is the GSCE chemistry glossary resource translated into Arabic. (Primarily matched to the AQA course). It is best used in conjunction with the standard English version. All words and phrases are numbered and match across both languages. There are suggested methods to revise the words. The glossaries are also matched with quiz quiz trade cards and SOLO hexagons for possible classroom activities. Physics and Biology are also available as are other translated languages. As I don’t speak this language please excuse any mistakes in translation!

These are the complete set of GSCE glossaries including Biology, Chemistry and Physics. These are translated into Persian. They match the English versions and have the same numbers. As I don’t speak this language there may be mistakes in the translation. However, I hope that you still find these useful for your EAL students.

Best printed 4 per page of A4. Useful for student self assessment and also provide quick feedback for the teacher. Great for evidence for work scrutinies / lesson observations.
This is based on the SOLO taxonomy system. It encourages the students to progress their learning.
I have found having a selection of various exit passes preprinted means I always have the right one at the right time!

These are primarily used for restorative justice type situations when asking students to reflect on their behaviour.
