Hi all, In this resource, we look at definitions, legislations and have great discussions surrounding the morality of homosexuality and polyamory. I created an activity called Ethics- Speed Dating Style! Which has been so successful over the last year, getting students to talk to others in the classroom and encourages meaningful evaluative discussions. This resource also includes two work sheets, one on key biblical passages on homosexuality (which is great to include for essays) and the other giving further detail on homosexuality, looking at the Alan Turing case study. For copyright purposes, I have not included extracts from the textbook in this resource. If you find this useful, please leave a review! Best wishes, Liz

In this resource, we begin Anselm’s ontological argument. This lesson is focussed on key words for the topic; the scholar; the context in which he was writing; and his premises within his first argument. This resource also contains independent research tasks for the students to carry about before the next lesson where we introduce Gaunilo’s criticism leading to Anselm’s edited argument. This resource has been tried and tested by my 16-17 year old students currently remote learning. This led to a successful understanding of the first part of the argument.
