This lesson focuses mainly on Christianity and looks at marriage and it’s value for Christians. It thinks about the nature and purpose of marriage for Christians. You can’t teach this without touching on the difficulty of homosexual marriage for Christians, this idea is explored in previous lessons but comes up again here. There are a couple videos, one is a nice one of the recent royal wedding, I found my students went all gushy and it was a nice moment as a class. The activity associated is about spotting the symbolism and understanding what it says about the beliefs.

This lesson looks at the nature of the Qur’an what it is like and some of the beliefs about it. It also looks at the other Holy books that are referenced in the Qur’an. It’s a straightforward power point, following the AQA Spec and will hopefully save you some time!

Religion and poverty, asking the ethical question - should we aim to be rich?

This is a game I've created for my year 11's. They've been struggling with keywords so this is a fun activity that can be played multiple times with them. There are differing levels of rules so can allow for differentiation as well. The cards have been created so that you can print them double sided and the tiles will match up (or print and photocopy 1sided - 2 sided and it should work) I recommend laminating and printing each set of different colour paper. There are about 30 words in total. The rules in short are, Spread the cards out across your table with the keyword facing up Each player takes it in turn to select a card and guess the definition of the word. If the player guesses correctly with the reverse of the card they keep the card and add it to their pile. If they are incorrect the leave the card to the table and put back 3 cards from their hand. Winner is the person with the most cards at the end of the game. Also available as bundle Also available Christianity Islam Themes A - F Please review! Thanks

Here is a keywords booklet for Theme E. These are the actual words and definitions from AQA, organised into a format ready for a booklet. This is also available as a bundle

This is a power point and silent debate sheet for an A level lesson of Calvin’s doctrine of accommodation. The power point is relatively brief which allows students to spend the second half of the double doing activities. I had mine do a silent debate (they had a hand out which was an extract from the Eduqas textbook and 10 mins to read it and highlight) They really did well and enjoyed it a lot, much to my surprise as this isn’t the most interesting unit for them!

This lesson covers both the resurrection and the ascension, the video may take a moment to load, if it stays a blank white box the plug in hasn’t activated so the ppt just needs to be re opened. There are a variety of activities designed to be modified, dropped in and out depending on your students and time table. There is an evaluation activity looking at the evidence and arguments around the resurrection.

I’ve set this up so it can be done as a carousel type activity. Included is a scaffolded worksheet for note taking. There are are questions in the powerpoint and a 12 mark question at the end. It looks at the roles of angels including Mika’il and Jibril. It follows the AQA textbook.
