Here are some GCSE Religious Studies revision activities on the topic of Medical Issues but could easily be adapted for other subjects and topics.

Specifically for the 'Edexcel&' specification &';Philosophy of Religion' & &'Ethics&';. Students use this worksheet to mark past essays and their peers. I then write my own comments and specific questions to address in the margin of their timed essays.

A series of homeworks ready to use for Edexcel's Unit 8. Religion & Society based on Christianity & Islam. Perfect to hand out in class or to upload to platforms such as show my homework. In each homework students must correctly match up the answers with the corresponding question. There is also an answer sheet for teachers. In the lesson due in we then complete a 10 question class quiz (same homework Q's but without notes) and collect in the scores. We have found this has a big impact - lower ability students simply learn the facts., higher ability must match them up - differentiate the homework! You can also view the class quiz leaderboard I have uploaded as this can be used alongside the homeworks/quizzes and add a competitive element to even homework/fact learning! L1 homework questions/answers are marked using the first ten and then second ten to fit in with how the scoreboard works however. I will be adding a few more questions from this topic - even if you get the resource you can get the additions.

Some ideas to present the real meaning of Christmas from a Christian perspective. Youtube clips required. (Harvey Nichols Christmas advert 2013, Black Friday Fight ASDA, Christmas in a nutshell - all available on youtube and downloadable using keepvid). Enjoy!

A series of short answer questions related to any A Level course studying Kant/Deontology. Students rate their own understanding out of 10, review any areas they need to review and then the teacher also rates their understanding for mark book purposes. This also allows for whole class intervention and to easily observe common areas of misunderstanding. These can be used to consolidate learning as homework questions.

A series of questions to consolidate learning on the teleological argument. Students rate their own understanding out of 10, comment upon areas they need to review and finally the teacher also assesses their understanding for mark book purposes. These AFL sheets could be used as homework tasks to consolidate learning. It allows you to easily identify common misunderstandings in the class quickly before moving on to new information.

This resources provides students with signpost words / key features of theories and arguments for the topics (Edexcel AS Religious Studies / Philosophy & Ethics) - Teleological argument - Problem of evil and suffering - Situation ethics - Utilitarianism Prepare for students as a card sort - each topic in a different colour. Project different past questions onto the board, students must select most relevant headings and order from the cards to address the question. Repeat this process and swap topics around between pairs. Follow-up activity could include mind mapping what students know about the key features/how they connect then pass the mind map on to another pair to add what they think has been missed.

A series of active learning strategies to encourage memory skills and engagement with any revision guide you give to students for Unit 8 Religion & Society. Activities could be adapted for different specifications and topics and/or to the needs of the specific guide you may give to students. This lesson familiarises students with their guide and gives some useful tips to remember facts and encourage close reading skills. There are also some suggestions of further activities in the slide notes. If you would like a copy of the revision guide we use please comment below.

A series of revision activities for most AS Religious Studies/Philosophy & Ethics specifications that include Utilitarianism.

Team based quiz for AS students studying the teleological argument. Activities could be slightly adapted depending upon exam board/quotes you would like students to memorise/learn. I created one of these for each AS topic prior to their mock exam.

You can use this resource with any subject and key stage. The excel document helps you to RAG students test/quiz scores, see cumulative scores and nominate a gold, silver and bronze winner after a topic/term/year. I often have students peer assess then call out results during the register. There is enough space for 30 students and 20 quizzes. The document automatically colours codes scores - red=1-3, yellow=4-6, green=7-10 to show understanding. Also helps to plan intervention with student flagged as 'red'. If students are absent the box remains blue.

Do you have a central way to log all students progress and comments? Here's what I use
