It is widely accepted that the use of exam wrappers is “best practice”, yet there are very few available online and those that exist are often for university students and not suitable for younger people. These wrappers are designed for students aged 14-18 (KS4 & KS5) - and are designed to be fast, fun, and engaging. This download comprises all five of our exam wrappers, buying them in this bundle saves money and the variety of exam wrappers will help students to engage in a broader array of metacognitive reflection activities and help maintain engagement.

Moral & Spiritual Development - PSHE [P4C Session] (PSHE, P4C, Ethics, Ethical) (PSE, SPHE, PSED)
godwin86godwin86

Moral & Spiritual Development - PSHE [P4C Session] (PSHE, P4C, Ethics, Ethical) (PSE, SPHE, PSED)

(4)
The topic of this Philosophy Boxes download is ‘Moral & Spiritual Development’. It is one of a series of PSHE-P4C sessions designed for KS2-4 PSHE students. The download comprises a P4C lesson/session that can be used multiple times with the same group. The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to PSHE designed for students in KS2-4: it is graphically stimulating, engaging, and fun. This download is also suitable for older students: but the format was designed with younger students in mind. In this context: ‘Philosophy Boxes’ represents a more student-centred ‘debate & discussion’ approach to PSHE issues. The aim of our ‘Philosopy Boxes’ PSHE sessions is to bring deep, critical thinking to PSHE, exploring PSHE using P4C (Philosophy for Children) debates and discussions. One advantage to the method is that it helps students to practice their social skills through the activities. The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities (in 8 different formats). The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. Choose from out complete selection of our ‘Philosophy Boxes’ PSHE lessons here.

Teacher Training Session: P4C, Debates, Discussions, Critical Thinking,Pedagogy [Philosophy Boxes]

(3)
The download comprises a FREE teacher training lesson/session that can be used 2-3 times with the same group or as a one-off. The aim of the session is to demonstrate techniques of structuring debates/discussions, inspiring P4C in classrooms, and fostering cross-curricular critical thinking. These activities are illustrated with reference to interesting debates about pedagogy, philosophy, ethics, the school, and teaching practice (most of which will be relevant to the teachers and trainee teachers (and other classroom practitioners) in your school. It is ideal for teacher training courses, or for ‘staff room morning training sessions’ that I know are often a feature of professional development in schools. It is offered freely so that teachers can see the ‘Philosophy Boxes’ method in action: mild ‘plugging’ of the availability of other PHILOSOPHY BOXES downloads (which you can find on TES for virtually every subject) is featured in the presentation. I hope that, if you like this teaching method, you don’t mind helping me sell a few more! :) The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities [that use 1 of 8 different formats]. The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. The download includes a PowerPoint Show; if you would like an editable PPT presentation so that you can make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ presentation you will need to download the template here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-the-philosophy-boxes-method-template-for-creating-your-own-philosophy-boxes-lessons-p4c-p4k-11463227 A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86 Other bundles of ‘Philosophy Boxes’ lessons exist, depending on your needs.
