2. Class Discussion Look at a completed revision clock:
What are your thoughts?
What do you like about it?

3. Rationale
A revision clock is similar to a mind map as it breaks down the content in to manageable chunks.
It also gets you to personalise the revision flash cards to make them more visual and memorable.
It is really important to use colour and where you can, drawings and sketch maps to help you to remember.
When you have completed the revision clocks, you can then chunk your topic revision in to 5 minute slots which will help to test your understanding little and often.

4. How to create a revision clock….?
Choose a subject/topic and divide it in to sub categories. For example:
Maths
Geography RE PE
Number
Tectonics
Pillars of Islam
Muscular skeletal system
Tectonic plates
Distribution
Effects of earthquakes
Responses to earthquakes
Muscles
Bones
Function
