Teacher notes
- Use the recognition block as a two-minute entry ticket; it tells you who is ready for applying design.
- Anything below 7 marks means the application stage needs re-teaching, not more practice.
- Project the whole-class version and poll answers before revealing the explanation.
- Pair the results with the Applying Design worksheet for targeted written practice.
Common student mistakes
- Confusing applying design with a neighbouring idea in design.
- Reaching for a rule that belongs elsewhere in design.
What to do next
- Score below 4: work the Easy quiz, then the practice worksheet.
- Score 4–8: retake as a Timed Quiz to build fluency.
- Score above 8: move to the Challenge Quiz or the next subtopic.
- Ask the AI Tutor to re-teach any question you got wrong twice.
