Teacher notes This matching activity could be used as a plenary or revision exercise on the lifecycle of stars. Students could be asked to complete the questions in their books and the activity could be concluded by the completion on the IWB. Teacher notes This ordering activity could be used as a plenary or revision exercise on sizes of elements of the Universe. Mini-whiteboards could be used to make this a whole-class exercise.
