Before your mini plenary Allow some thinking time. The students now have the pairs, get them to think about why they have grouped them together in more detail. Encourage students to choose their best link and justify the reasons why they have linked them together! Allow some thinking time.

Encourage students to make pairs between the higher level graded words! Have this as a challenge task next to the main activity.

Slide 8

Support Give students hint tokens. The amount depends on the ability of the student. Give students a mini glossary to remind them of some of the key terms so they can actually pair them. The VCOP is graded which can direct students to the terminology related to their grades.
