This can be modified to suit any subject and topic. I do NOT claim this resource to be a new idea; just a strategy that works very well in the classroom that is worth sharing. This idea is perfect for sharing success criteria; and also demonstrating progress within the lesson. The topic can be used as a starter or plenary and feed into a main activity - using the same process - for students applying success criteria for classwork; coursework and exams.

1. TEACHER SLIDE
A starter or plenary activity for
demonstrating rapid progress.
The success lies in hiding/then sharing the criteria. This technique
can be applied in all context…
