  1. GCSE Resistant Materials Revision Booklet D&T@BHBS Name: Target grade: Group: After School Revision Sessions: Tuesdays

  2. Where to start…?! • Make a plan for revision: Set days and times at the side of each topic so you know you can fit it all in. • Assess where you are in your understanding so you can focus your revision and track your progress • Get organised; Treat yourself to new pens, note book, pencils, colours, post-it notes and flash cards – fail to prepare = prepare to fail! • Attend your focus group after school revision sessions for personalised help and support.

  3. How to Revise…??? • Visual learner: • Make your revision more visual by using notes with colours and sketches to help you remember key bits of information: • Use symbols next to key process or materials to help jog your memory. • Recopynotes in colours • Use mind maps or spider diagrams on key topics.. • Write facts and notes on index cards and stick every where! On the wall, fridge TV or even you bed. • Use colour-coded markers or highlighters to pick out key bits of information. • Use You tube, and Podcasts Doodle it ! This App has lots of good videos linked to all areas of Resistant Materials. • Auditory learner: • You may find it useful to listen to information rather than writing it down, or putting on some background music whilst revising. Try some of these techniques to help: • Put facts to your favourite tuuunes and change the lyrics of songs to things you need to remember. • Discuss information a with friend immediately after new learning to help it sink in – ring a friend or chat after class. • Study/do homework with friend(s) via telephone or get together in a group. • Repeat key phrases or thing you want to remember out loud lots of times to help it stick. • Record your self reading your revision guide and listen to the recording on your phone/ipod. • Use of different voices to study (like creating a script, or acting out a play) • Use videos and pod casts. Sing it ! • Kinesthetic Learner: • You will find it easier to be doing something whist revising, weather that is moving about, taking notes or even exercising. You will find it easier if your notes are neat and organisedwith out crossed out bits or mistakes: • Copy out key information over and over to make them neat and help you remember it. • Make notes during lesson as an aid to concentration. • Walk and talk – link in revision with exercising. • Move hands or feet for rhythm emphasis while studying • Make charts, grids, timelines, diagrams similar to visual learner strategies • Trace key words with finger, marker or you hand whilst reading Re-enact situations while studying. • Practice exam questions. • Practice drawing skills. • Physical activities linked to theory learning. DO it!
