Double sided A3 revision sheets for Catholic Christianity, Spec A. Created using the spec.
One double sided sheet is blank, one is completed.
Students should complete from memory and improve. I would recommend two different coloured pens in order to do this effectively. Students can then assess what they know and what they need to know.
This lesson takes anywhere between 1 and 2 hours and is an ideal cover lesson as the correct answers bare ready for a supply teacher to refer to. Parents have also found this useful as the answer sheet can be used in order for them to support students with revision.

**These are booklets used in Catholic General RE for Year 12. **
Our Course is designed around Pope Francis’ encyclical ‘Fratelli Tutti.’ In his letter to all humans in the world the Pope asks us to unite as a brotherhood to end suffering and injustice and act as the good Samaritan to all of our neighbours. The booklets are centred around the following topics & films:
Blood Diamond/Modern Day Slavery
I Daniel Blake/Poverty/Christmas & Consumerism
Hotel Rwanda/Genocide/Holocuast Memorial Day
Selma/Fraternity & Racism
Dead Man Walking/Capital Punishment
This bundle contains the booklets only for a years worth of General RE lessons. These lessons are predominantly taught from the booklets alongside collective worship. You can find last years Holocaust Memorial Day Liturgy for free in a separate resource to download, this is referenced in booklet 3. The booklets include question and answers, articles and spaces to jot down notes. Lots of the lessons centre around discussion from the booklets.
Please note the 6th term is not included as we complete alternative activities during this half term.
Alongside these booklets we have historically arranged guest speakers, in particular I would highly reccomend Amnesty International if you are based in the North East of England.
