Folding

Resources:

 A4/A3/A2 paper

 What to do:

 Give your students a piece of paper. Ask them to fold the page in half. Then again. Then again! That will make 8 sections. (You can pick as many or as few sections as you like, I would suggest 4 be the minimum and 8 maximum- but use both sides?)


You then have lots of options with what to do with the different sections. It will essentially depend on the type of lesson you are running.

E.G:
1 block for...
  1. Keywords
  2. Command Words
  3. Common Questions
  4. Typical Mistakes
  5. Key Facts
  6. Exam questions
  7. Useful Websites/Page references
  8. Additional info
Or you can use the page as a revision page- dividing each section into topics- students can then use a variety of revision methods for each block.
Students can fill in a box each and pass their paper on to their peers to add more information to it.

They can answer a question, get feedback and try the question again. 
See here and here.

Students can also use this as a planning tool- use each box for a different section of an essay! (See Peer Production line post) or, students write a 6 mark question; 1 mark in each box? 1 box for peer reflection and 1 for self/teacher comments? Or- PEEL- point, evidence, explain and link? 
You can also get the students to make Foldables from their paper.
