Setting Revision/Homework
Apr 18, 2023 8:46 am
Hi ,
I hope you are having a great first week of the summer term! You are receiving this email because you are currently using Pupil Gateway on The PE Classroom.
Experience tells me that over the next few weeks your pupils will be using Pupil Gateway more than any other time of the year and I wanted to remind you that you can reach out to me if you require any support with using the platform.
Some pupils struggle with having the motivation to get started with their revision. However, simply making a start and completing a small task will generate a sense of achievement which will fuel further motivation. Sending pupils back to the videos, tasks, exam questions and quizzes on Pupil Gateway can help to begin this process.
Setting Work On Pupil Gateway
Pupil Gateway includes three different pages for each and every topic within a course:
Learning Content - This page is where your pupils can watch videos, have a go at our 'hotspots' and other tasks, and view cheat sheets/presentations. As the name suggests, this page is for learning/revision. (We will be adding further content to the Learning Content pages over the coming weeks so be sure to keep re-visiting the site!)
Quiz - Every topic includes a 10 mark quiz for your pupils to complete in order to test their knowledge. A range of questions are included and pupils can retake the quiz as many times as they wish. As a teacher, you can view results in your Teacher Dashboard.
Exam Questions - Quizzes are great for testing knowledge but pupils also need to have the ability to decipher and answer exam questions. Every topic includes a number of exam questions for pupils to answer, before self-assessing their work. Again, as a teacher you can view answers and self-assessment within your Teacher Dashboard.
Setting Work:
At this time of year you may want to send pupils to the platform and give them free rein to complete as much revision as possible. However, you may also wish to direct them to a particular topic which you would like them to revise. In this instance, we advise simply sharing the page link with your pupils, using your usual system. Click below to watch a two minute video which explains this process in a little more detail.
If I can help with anything at all as you re-start with The PE Classroom this term, just hit reply and let me know. Enjoy the rest of the week.
Best wishes,
Tom & The PE Classroom Team
