This is a bit shorter than my normal lessons, it does touch on some high level concepts but what you will probably find is that many of your students will already come with ideas on the topic. When I did this with year 9 they just wanted to talk and talk and ask lots of questions and they really enjoyed the more philosophy side of it. Consequently the lesson leans more to class discussion and you can insert many debate activities in, if you have time.
Problem of evil, Critical RE Lesson, epistemic contingency (limits of knowledge) year 7. Explores this idea that we cannot have a conclusion to the problem of evil that we are satisfied with and that the reason lies in the limits of human knowledge
Scheme of Work on the problem of evil, shaped for year 7. Lots of discussion and concept exploration. Looks at Natural and Moral Evil. Follows a Critical Religious Education Pedagogy
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 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.
