1. THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

2. EXAM TIME IS UPON US The weather’s lovely – much too nice to be indoors revising. My parents and teachers never stop reminding me about the exams. Everyone’s talking about ‘Revision Techniques’ – telling me different things – I get confused.

3. In Fact …………….. I’M STRESSED OUT!

4. SOME SENSIBLE ADVICE Don’t panic. Don’t worry. Don’t lose sleep. Don’t bottle it up. Talk to someone. Mind you, it’s best not to talk to your equally stressed mate – you’ll only make each other feel worse!

5. Your revision timetable shouldn’t be too prescriptive – change happens – be flexible. Don’t keep revising what you already know. Don’t put off revising what you don’t like or don’t understand.

6. Revision methods Mind maps Imaginary journeys Mnemonics Play back Once upon a time……. Poster PPT X Factor Flip cards/PIPs

7. Once upon a time…. It was my first day at carbo high. As you entered the grounds there were green fields full of fat round cute bunnies. Mr Vitamin, the Headmaster was in the entrance hall to meet the new students – he was very pro teen and had a good relationship with the students. One classmate did not show up for school that day as she had broken her arm, she was called Minnie Ral. In the playground at break time the students had fun running around and were allowed to use the water fountain to quench their thirst – one was broken a squirted right up my friends nose. It was a great day and got even better, on my way home I found a fiver!

12. Don’t……….. be too hard on yourself. Revision is vital, but you do have a life. just sit reading. watch TV, listen to loud music, have ‘Facebook’ minimised, face a window. be tempted to go out with your mates

13. You’ve been going to school for nearly 10 Years. All your exams are over and done as quick as they started. That’s a long time. That’s not a long time.

14. Mind you, there’s always one! “I told you I didn’t need to revise”
