The aim of the revision activity is to provide support for students who need to progress from
developing to secure for the core National Curriculum statements.
The aim of the extension activity is to provide extension for students who have already achieved
secure. The activity is also suitable for older students in need of further extension work.
Additional notes:
The revision activity should be appropriate for students achieving less than 59 % in the
Checkpoint assessment.
You can review students answers to questions in the Checkpoint assessment in Kerboodle. You
may decide not to cover all tasks in the revision activity, based on students performance on
specific questions.
An index of which task covers which outcome is given in the Teacher Handbook.
This revision activity could also be used as a revision sheet for all students.
You could show students an example of how to construct a visual summary, perhaps by creating
a visual summary together as a class on a familiar topic, for example, animated films.
Ask students to first attempt the visual summary without the use of their books and textbooks.
Once they have completed their visual summaries they should attempt the questions at the
bottom of the sheet.
If they find these difficult, this will suggest a gap in their learning and they should then use the
student book to improve their visual summaries and re-attempt the questions.
Students could be asked to explain the links and descriptions they make to ensure any
misunderstandings are challenged.
