JJO – Differentiation by questioning quiz (see attached powerpoint) is a quiz were students can select which level of difficulty they want to answer. It promotes challenge as students want to get more points.
The powerpoint is a template that is easily adaptable for use.
SLR – Pass the Parcel
Sit students in a circle
Play some music to the class
Stop the music after a few seconds.
The student who has the parcel when the music stopped unwraps it and has to answer the revision question. If they can’t answer it, open the question up to the class.
Restart the music and stop it to allow different students to have the opportunity to unwrap the parcel and answer a question
AWE – knowledge audits to promote independent study and challenge (other resources attached)
JWE –
AML - Beat the Teacher - Connections
Give the class the question, and include certain phrases that they have to use within their answer.
Mix up the terms so they are not in any order The highlighted words (red) would indicate difficult terms to include – the challenge
is to include them At the same time make it a competition by the teacher writing a version in the same
time as students and compare
Stop and Think Bingo
Instead of giving students words – you pose a question (which you know the answers for) and students have to come up with answers to complete their grid.
Play bingo in the usual way (questioning as you go) Extension – give each answer a score, the easier answers 1 pt etc, Students can then total how many their grid would score – this will reward the
students who thought about the whole question rather than just the one, who was lucky enough to have them in the order that you called them out
What went wrong?
Students discuss – what went wrong with an answer, rather than what went well. As often an answer looks good on the surface but is in fact not worth many marks.
By finding errors shows a better understanding of the topics and make it easier to write better answers. There is no point
trying to improve good answers.
Students then go on to write a correct answer either in groups of individually depending on the question
