‘Face It’ - (Lesson Activity) multiple choice quiz for A2 students to recap some concepts from AS

Continuing our theme of sharing engaging activities, here's a fun teaching resource that lasts between 15 and 20 minutes called 'Face It' - a resource that has been extremely popular when we've used it during our teacher CPD events. The questions in this resource have been set by Ellie Willard and are aimed at returning A2 students, covering some key topics from the AS curriculum.'Face It' is a multiple choice quiz with a typical tutor2u twist! Students are shown the questions at the start of the quiz (but not the possible answers) and asked to work out which questions they feel most confident in answering. Then the fun really starts!

Students work in teams and are given the questions and a set of 10 'counters'. These counters take the form of faces and the value of each counter is determined by the number of faces on it (between 1 and 3). The teams 'bet' a counter at the start of each question depending on how confident they are of answering correctly - if they are very confident they will bet a '3-face' counter. If they get the answer correct they earn the value of that counter - encouraging the students to think carefully about which questions they are more confident with.

All the necessary documents are included on the Powerpoint file downloadable below.

This type of resource becomes very valuable at a later stage of teaching - particularly if a teacher is trying to work out which topics have been understood the most or which topic needs more revision. An editable version of this resource (where the teacher can set the questions) is available from the tutor2u store.
