A professionally designed Christmas quiz for Religious Studies teachers to use with their students, featuring 60 well-presented questions and an answer sheet. The quiz also includes a word-search (on screen) and a couple of anagram rounds. Fifty of the questions are Christmas-related and not connected to a specific school-subject: the final ten are subject specific and deal either with GCSE terminology, KS4 exam specification contents, or “fun facts”. Differentiation can easily be achieved by changing quiz group sizes. The quiz is suitable for KS3-5. Completing and peer-marking the 60-question quiz should take the best part of a 1-hour lesson. The resource is fully editable. Copyright Adam Godwin (2018) Not for re-distribution.

I went through all my old resources to find relevant files for the ‘Religion & Life’ theme of new specification and compiled them into this 70+ file bundle. Resources focus on Christianity but I will be making new resources for Buddhism soon. There are at least 10 full lessons to choose from in this bundle and much more aside from that. These resources are quite old now and for the previous specification, please see my new range of resources released in 2018. Update: 2018 Please note that I have now released updated resource packs for the ‘Thematic Studies’ component of the GCSE course. These can be found be clicking here. They are considerably higher quality, better value and generally superior to these older files in every way so have a look!

This booklet is designed for years 7-9, once printed (preferably colour, double-sided) and given to a student - the teacher does not need to set homework tasks for the rest of the year, they are all contained within this booklet. It contains 60 pages and over 50 tasks, a year’s worth of homework. The tasks are differentiated, the format allows students to select the tasks that interest them each week/fortnight - the booklet instructs students to get their homework tasks signed by parents and the teacher. As a teacher, your only task is to check that students are completing the tasks. This one resource will save teachers of Philosophy and Religion countless hours of work, planning, and assessment. -It covers a variety of religions, philosophical issues, and ethical debates. -Features religious art, and high-level graphic design to encourage engagement. -Fosters independent research skills and allows students to choose topics that interest them -Features activities designed to prepare KS3 students for GCSE topics. -See the attached image for samples of tasks!
