Here is the first of a half terms worth of lessons, introducing RS. The emphasis is on the skills for the subject, the nature of investigations, asking questions. Included is the work sheet, they write 'ultimate questions' in the question mark. Looks good if they do them colourful! Please note this ppt requires the free web player plugin for power point, it is really easy to install, you literally just click on 'my apps' from the menu bar when you have power point open, look for the video player and click add. I was having trouble using you tube through the power point so I started using the web player app instead. The video, if the download doesn't work, is on you tube and it is simply the trailer to 'the story of God' documentary with Morgan Freeman. Thanks!

This is part of a unit introducing RE and the skills and process of doing it. There is a card sort for the skills in RS open ended differentiation. There is also an activity around building arguments, we didn't get to this in 45 minute lessons but it is there as an option. There is also the syllogism game I developed, this is great fun with my year 9s and some of the absurdities generated can be hilarious!

This game is played in similar fashion to a well known one. The person with the highest score wins… Excellent for revision or just giving students a general context of philosophy.

This is a detailed lesson based off the text book for Eduqas Alevel Religious Studies. You do not need the text book to teach this. There are questions throughout and exam style questions.
