Hand out a motorway 3-6 mark exam question. Students use the keywords, command word guidance and connectives to draft their exam response. Using the second roadsign (roundabout, etc.) students assess their response and edit their first draft. For a set of questions and answers click here. If you wish to adapt the cards for your subject, click here to download a blank template of each sign in pdf.
The roadsigns can easily be adapted to suit any other subject as shown in this example which was created by @SLT_Kat. To download a copy of her version click here.
As I was walking down a main road, I suddenly thought that the template could easily be adapted to any task (using SOLO or grades to differentiate). The red circles represent the maximum level the task can achieve. As students work their way around the roundabout, the level of difficulty increases. Once students have completed the task I would encourage students to first of all RAG themselves before discussing the answers. Finally, targets will be set at the end of the process.
