Four Revision Rules to Share With Your Students by @RichardJARogers

Rule #1: The syllabus is your ultimate guide

Our students must have access to the syllabus (in fact, they should have been using it throughout the course itself).

If at this stage of the year your students have never seen the syllabus then you ABSOLUTELY MUST share it with them.

If we are going to really prepare our kids for their exams, then they’ve got to know all of the topics that could come up on their papers.

Students should be encouraged to make notes on each part of the syllabus as part of their revision.

Introduction

Rule #1: The syllabus is your ultimate guide

Rule #2: Complete lots of past-papers under timed conditions

Rule #3: Use more than one textbook for each subject

Rule #4: Use the internet
