How to organise revision, use flip learning and manage students.

1. Revision and Terminal Assessments: Science
• Communication with home
• Revision tips and strategies
• Reflection and responsibility

2. Homelearning and Communication with Home
• To share your plans with parents and keep everyone in the picture
really helps.

FLIP Learning
The idea is that students come to the
lesson prepared, with an existing idea of
what the lesson is going to be about. The
lesson is an opportunity to embed the
learning through application. Produce a
timetable of HL for your topic, publish this
to show when HL needs to be covered and
when the work will be covered in class.

FLIP Learning: Continued
Parents really liked the forward planning
and therefore this evolved for this year.
The learning route for each class was sent
to parents with what is in the unit, when
to expect the assessment, feedback and

6. Revision
• Goal
• Energy management
• Organisation
• Be creative
• Link new ideas to old
• Practise
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NROegsMqNc
Little pep talk before
starting the revision
process.
The clip shows a really
good example of
creativity and memory.

7. • Alpha
• Beta
• Gamma
• properties
• Half life
• Fission- energy
• Fusion – stars
• Nucleus
• Isotopes
• Helicopter
• Phone
• Cold
• Sugar
• Yellow
• Blue
• Fish
• Engine
• Purple
• Sugar
• Lettuce
• Green
• Pen

Try it in lessons with
random words and then
work them into your
subject topics.

8. Other ideas.
Some other ideas.
• Mnemonic
• Chunking
• Graphic organisers
• Acronyms
• Silly sentences
• Association/storytelling/rhyming/playing games
• Repetition – flash cards/notes/revision guides
• Auditory – read out loud/listen/talk/questions

9. Reflection and Responsibility
• It is important that students reflect on their own progress and the
impact of their efforts.
• Use of QLA and reflection sheets to identify areas of reteach and get
pupils to noted for themselves what their weaknesses are and the
actions they need to take, with a deadline.
