A1: I think the first step is always to look at the bigger picture first - is the original purpose of the writing fulfilled? #ukedchat

#ukedchat Planning answers together. Timed plans particularly for longer essay questions.

#UKEdChat - Q1. What are the best revision strategies that you use with students?

ICTmagic - Moderator Apr 13 @ 3:04 PM EDT

Ensuring that students feel that revision is worthwhile and important for THEM, not me. #ukedchat Helps if the test is worthwhile!

In reply to @ukedchat

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:04 PM EDT

A1: Did the student's writing address the audience, does the overall structure make sense? Then, move to if main idea has support. #ukedchat

#ukedchat A1 - make it fast pace, relevant and challenging focused on (unfortunately) the test - although that is why they are revising!!

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:06 PM EDT

A1: I also like to have the students read their papers aloud - recording their voice - that helps them recognize errors instantly! #ukedchat

ukedchat - Moderator Apr 13 @ 3:06 PM EDT

Do students generally struggle with the big picture, or the finer aspects of exams and questions to get the best grades? #ukedchat

A1 Involving current affairs & their world in the things you want to revise with them. #ukedchat #education

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:10 PM EDT

@ukedchat Then, they'll produce great writing but be completely off-base for what the prompt actually asked them to write about! #ukedchat

#ukedchat A2 - In Y6 it is a case of introducing them to revise. Teach them to practice regularly in short bursts and use time effectively

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:12 PM EDT

A2: Peer interaction is necessary! Ss need to "rehearse" words, phrases, introductions, and thesis statements w/each other. #ukedchat

NVandenAbeele Apr 13 @ 3:12 PM EDT

A2 Ask them to revise and start a next lesson with a 10-minute discussion, learning from their ways of revising. #ukedchat #sharing ideas.

Is addressing poor behaviour a time drain? Try memorised ‘consistency scripts’. #teacher5aday #sltchat #ukedchat https://t.co/0MBL8A0d70

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:14 PM EDT

A2: Use anonymous papers from other classes and revise the example together. Ss share out things to add, delete, and rearrange. #ukedchat

teacherchalky1 Apr 13 @ 3:14 PM EDT

A2 In the past I've gone through a technique with Ss then get them to revise using it then do a question after #ukedchat

In reply to @UKEdSch

NVandenAbeele Apr 13 @ 3:14 PM EDT

A2 Indeed! "Playing the teacher" is one of the best ways to check your understanding of subject knowledge, #ukedchat

#ukedchat Q3. A-grade students getting dragged down by revision strategies designed to help weak students scrape a pass.(These have uses)

In reply to @ukedchat

NVandenAbeele Apr 13 @ 3:24 PM EDT

A3 Self-study as a way of "revise-(on)-your-own" / "DIY revision". Revision only works w/ teacher as a coach! #ukedchat, my experience!

ICTmagic - Moderator Apr 13 @ 3:25 PM EDT

I see so many teachers just say 'go revise' without any direction. It should be bespoke, but it is also a skill & needs teaching. #ukedchat

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:25 PM EDT

A3: Having students write summaries of texts. So much time is spent on the nuance of what to summarize that rereading works better #ukedchat

NVandenAbeele Apr 13 @ 3:25 PM EDT

#ukedchat Totally agreed, Martin!

In reply to @ICTmagic

UKEd_NW Apr 13 @ 3:27 PM EDT

#ukedchat Some interesting techniques for revision here: https://t.co/PysMudAyQA

Classkick Apr 13 @ 3:28 PM EDT

A3: Or highlighting - when Ss highlight they focus on one concept and don't integrate the information into a larger whole. #ukedchat

dailydenouement Apr 13 @ 3:29 PM EDT

Definitely think we need to explicitly teach study/revision techniques earlier in school #ukedchat

NVandenAbeele Apr 13 @ 3:30 PM EDT

A3 Revision isn't a problematic area if T is a role model: start e.g. every lesson w/ "a short recap of last lesson" = set example #ukedchat
