The Sociology Debate Generator! (200 DEBATES for GCSE/AS/A2) [Revision, Discussions] AQA/OCR (P4C)

(3)
Essential for any KS4/5 Sociology teachers! Generate debates instantly, never waste a minute of class-time! This is a 202 slide PPT, containing 200 Sociological debates, discussions, and dilemmas. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide: when clicked a random sociological debate is presented to the group. Uses: -GCSE/AS/A2 Sociology Classes -P4C (Philosophy for kids) -Form time activities -Sociology/Citizenship/History/Politics/R.S./Philosophy cover lessons -Debating societies -Making best use of spare time at the end of lessons Discussions follow one of three formats, each asking students to move from one side of the room or the other to make their position clear: teachers should then use questioning to foster a debate between students, encouraging them to present reasons for their choice and defend their position. The formats are: -Agree or Disagree? -Which parallel dimension would you go to? -Which of the two laws would you put in place? This resource is great value at £4.99 and cannot be found elsewhere: -It clearly contributes to your school’s SMSC provision -Furthers students’ critical thinking skills -It allows for countless hours of discussion and debate to be structured in a focussed and engaging manner -It would take days to reproduce yourself -It can save vast amounts of staff time in preparing cover lessons -It is the perfect way to make the most of any time a teacher might have left at the end of a lesson -It deals with cross curricular issues Please note: this resource deals with controversial issues, debates and questions that may be deemed unsuitable for younger children. It is designed for secondary school students, but can be easily adapted to younger years with appropriate amendments by their teacher.

Multiculturalism & Celebrating Other Cultures [Philosophy Boxes] (P4C) KS1-3 Philosophy - Debates
godwin86godwin86

Multiculturalism & Celebrating Other Cultures [Philosophy Boxes] (P4C) KS1-3 Philosophy - Debates

(5)
The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to P4C designed for students in KS1, 2 & 3: 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. The topic of this Philosophy Boxes download is “Multiculturalism & Celebrating Other Cultures”. The aim of Philosophy Boxes is to bring philosophy and critical thinking into every subject at every level: we believe that any subject becomes philosophy when students are asked the right questions and when they think about a topic hard enough and on the deepest (most fundamental) level. 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 You can also save money by purchasing lessons as bundles.
