Revision! What a nightmare...

Revision is hard but….. “Nothing easy is worthwhile…. Nothing worthwhile is easy”

How to Revise

The Best Time to Revise Do you prefer morning or night? If you revise for long periods of time….you must give yourself regular breaks of minutes. Only you know what time is best for you … but do 1 hour slots at most

The Best Ways to Revise Plan your revision with a timetable Read and write summaries of your notes but …...

The Best Ways to Revise Use ‘Memory Maps’ for complicated topics - use pictures and symbols that spring to mind Put finished memory maps above your desk / bed - just above eye level. Most people remember pictures better than words

The Best Ways to Revise You may need to listen to music (not the radio) when you revise. You may need to make up songs / rhymes to help you remember You may need to say things out loud

The Best Ways to Revise You may need to be active… cutting up ‘heads and tails’ and matching them up again.. Mouth grinds up the food Oesophagus connects the mouth to the stomach Stomach adds acid to the food to break it down Duodenum connects the stomach to the small intestine Remember labelled diagrams

Making it Stick Remind yourself over and over... Keep ‘topping up’. ‘Look, Cover, Write, Check’ Highlighting Make your own flash cards Make ‘jigsaws’ Get practice papers

Making it Stick Check with your teachers what you should know… go to revision classes Watch BBC Bitesize Videos Use the BBC Bitesize Website Work with someone else.. ‘The best way to learn is to teach…’

Making it Stick Use Mnemonics R ichard O f Y ork G ave B attle I n V ain Use lots of these ways to revise Test yourself under ‘exam conditions’ Learn named examples/ case studies/ quotes as these get extra marks

Success? Failure?
