1. Making Progress Explicit

2. Starter Activity Pupils are handed a tracking sheet with key ideas for the lesson. They fill in the columns for the start of the lesson, for what they are confident about doing and not confident doing.

3. Main The main activity in the lesson is a team race, answering graded questions. Different pupils from each group bring the answer up and explain it. They get the next question when I am happy with the answer.

4. Keeping Track A3 sheet tacked to the whiteboard with teams names on. Pupils cross off a question every time that I am happy with the answer.

5. Mini Plenary and Exit The race works best with strict time limits. Pupils fill in the individual tracking sheet for formulae that they now know. At the end pupils fill in the second set of columns on the sheet for what they now know.
