Encourage your child to ACTIVELY revise rather than PASSIVELY revise
Students often mistake reading through notes or websites as revision – it is not.

Where possible - help provide the right resources for your child to revise actively:
post-it notes, pen, ruler, paper, scissors & glue, internet access if you have it, dictionary, highlighter pens, coloured pens, revision guides, revision CDs and podcasts

ACTIVE REVISION
We learn: • 10% of what we read • 20% of what we hear • 30% of what we see • 40% of what we see and hear • 70% of what is discussed • 95% of what we teach to someone else
This means that the best method of learning is having to explain or teach a topic to someone else.
