To support your child’s revision

1. Review the feedback from progress checks with your child. Progress checks are their teacher’s way of checking they’re learning all the content. We will go through and re-teach in lessons. However, you can support your child by reviewing the part they found challenging with them
2. You can also use websites such as:

• • Use BBC bitesize – https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/zng4d2p
  • Seneca Learning – https://app.senecalearning.com/classroom/course/419c7523-d408-4bc7-9b96-f7f12abdacae
