I have been doing this in my class every year but just this year had the necessary creativity to write everything down and draw my posters to put up in my class, more my style.
The posters are to put up in your class walls to have a continuous visual reference for your students, so every time you ask them for one of these concepts they can use them to answer or refresh their memory.
In addition to the idea and the posters, you can check this post out to get to know better how to use these materials and to see more ideas and resources in action.
