Quick plenaries
1) The document provides guidance for different plenary activities that can be used to summarize and reflect on a math lesson. It includes instructions for completing tasks like filling out success criteria triangles, writing key words, describing what was learned, and providing peer feedback. 2) Students are directed to work with partners to discuss what they learned and found challenging, and write responses in each other's books. They also create and answer their own math questions to demonstrate understanding. 3) The document emphasizes self-assessment and reflection on areas of strength and growth to improve, with the goal of helping students internalize the most important aspects of the lesson.

Editor's Notes
- #4 This activity is best done once students have seen your writing success criteria for mathematics. Then this will be a really meaningful activity.
- #5 Get the students to sketch a triangle (like the one above) into their book. Then get them to complete each section in relation to the lesson.,
- #6 A more detailed plenary triangle, base level needs 3 key words from the lesson, middle section needs 2 things you have learned/please about and the top of the triangle is what you need to go away and revise.
- #7 You can choose to do this for a key word or the topic you are about to cover/ already covered. It can be used as an entry activity, plenary or as part of the lesson. Give the students a time limit and then share ideas as a class. You can share ideas in pairs 1st and then as a class.
- #8 Get the students to draw two big bubbles in their book and copy and complete the statements. Get them to share what they have written with the class.
- #9 Students choose 1 box to put in their book and complete. Get the class to share what they have written.
- #10 Students to write in their books two sentences, the 1st to explain what they have done well and the 2nd to explain what they need to do to improve. Students to then share what they have written with the class.
- #11 This is a really quick plenary. Get students to write in their book www (what went well) something they found that they were good at and are confident with. They then need to write ebi (even better if) so something that they would like to improve in their work. Get students to share what they have written.
- #12 This is a really quick plenary. Get each pair of students to label themselves A and B. Student A should tell student B what they have learned. Student B should tell student A what they found challenging. Student A then writes what student B has said in student B’s book. And student B writes what student A said in student A’s book. This is a great activity for literacy as they students have to listen to each other and then write in full sentences what their partner has said.
- #13 This is a really quick plenary. Get students to write in their book the meaning of one of the key words. Then using as many of they key words as they can write a full sentence to say what they have learned. Get students work partner to share what they have written. This encourages writing, make sure the students write their answers in full sentences.
- #14 Now get the groups to swap work back. Each group to read out to the class what they have done well and what they need to do to improve.
- #15 This slide is timed, so the student have a set time to complete each section of the plenary activity.
- #20 The steps come on with a click of the mouse, as the students are ready to move on.
- #21 The idea of this activity is that each student contributes to success criteria – step by step. It is very important that you have used success criteria several times before completing this activity (otherwise students will find it difficult to complete the task). To finish pick a few people to read the success criteria they have got written in their book.
