Back Learning

This activity can be after a home learning task, a research task, after a carousel activity or as a revision tool. When the students start the task they have a piece of card attached to the back of their collar with a fold-back clip (can get them from Herts Supplies). All the students get up and move around the classroom writing on each other's backs summarising their knowledge/ key points/ research etc. 

Depending on the purpose of the task students can use the information gathered on their back to summarise the key learning or write an exam answer or (see picture below) I used it for students to test each other on their knowledge initially and then they were asked to mind map the information gathered on their backs.
