Here’s the diagram – what’s the question, see also Algebra Snippets
The Collective Memory resources on TES can make an excellent revision activity, students look at posters and then have to understand and recall that information. These can be used in a variety of ways which are fully described in the article; there are numerous Collective Memory resources on TES.

GCSE Revision – zannzann on TES

On the subject of TES, there is an extensive collection of high quality (free) revision resources. Note the numerous 5 star reviews given for many of these resources. You can filter the search by age using the criteria on the left of the page or the tabs at the top; see revision resources for 14-16 for example.
Mini-tests (or self checks)
Treasure Hunts – see the sample topic resources on Mathsbox (and more free samples on Mathsbox) for some lovely resources; MathsBox is a (very good value in my opinion) subscription site with an extensive collection of quality resources; even without a subscription, there are many free samples so you can see and use several very useful resources. The settlers and Bingo activities are ideal for a series of short recall/revision type questions. I do like the attractive presentation of the resources on this site (as well as the content of course!) Treasure Hunts will get students moving around the room. See also Loop Activities / Treasure Hunts. On the subject of moving around the room, you could try an activity using post-its; see for example this Surds post-it challenge on TES.
Tarsia puzzles, these are available for all ages including post 16.
On Maths Teaching – Higher Level Revision Activities is a series of short starters for GCSE revision.
