AQA GCSE RE RS - Christianity Beliefs - Complete Unit - 9 Lessons

11 Resources
This is a full unit for the 9-1 AQA GCSE RS course. Please consult individual lesson pages (uploaded individually) for detail on each. The lessons are designed to be taught as doubles but are easily adaptable to squeeze into shorter periods (as I do because we have an odd timetable) I recommend doing them in this order, the lessons are as follows: Lesson 1: Nature of God Lesson 2: The Trinity Lesson 3: Creation Lesson 4: Incarnation and Son of God Lesson 5: The crucifixion Lesson 6: Resurrection and ascension Lesson 7: Sin, Salvation and Atonement Lesson 8: Heaven and Hell Lesson 9: Problem of Evil I’ve also included the keywords revision card game. Many of the lessons have timers and videos embedded, the videos take a few seconds to load, if they don’t work simply reopen the power point. I’ve kept the pricing low, all of us work hard for our money. Thank you!

AQA GCSE RS -2  Attitudes to Sex - Theme A Relationships and Families

AQA GCSE RS -2 Attitudes to Sex - Theme A Relationships and Families

(1)
This lesson explores Christian attitudes to sex (there is enough diversity to cover exam requirements) it goes behind the scenes to look at the idea of complimentary pairs in creation. I really wanted to help students understand that when some Christians disagree with homosexuality it isn’t necessarily the case that they are homophobic, but rather that their world view doesn’t sustain the idea of homosexuality and so it places them in a difficult position, choosing between what they believe are eternal principles and what modern society expects. I find this helps students to understand the diversity of views. there are exam questions included.

Arguments worksheet. Critical thinking, discussion and argument activity. Essay planning

(2)
This worksheet was designed for the RE classroom as a way of helping students to develop their critical thinking and discussion skills (necessary for higher marks). It's quite simple but works really well and highly adaptable. Each finger can be used as a different point. The students then write inside the hands (something they find strangely enjoyable). This helps them see and remember what they have written and what they can then add. It helps them to plan answers as well as generate ideas for discussion. Each hand is for/against. Thanks!

Paranormal Investigations RE Themed lessons X files

(1)
This is a really fun couple of lessons, aimed at KS3 Y8-9. They take the role of investigators, looking into detailed 'case files' which include eye-witness testimonies, scientific reports and images. There are also videos contained within the power point. Topics include reincarnation, NDE, Mediums/Ghosts. I would recommend turning out the lights, have some lamps or fairy lights (at least initially) and play the X files music while the students come in. They get really excited and enjoy it. I'd also recommend photocopying onto sugar paper to add to the effect, printing each activity on different colour helps too.

AQA RS RE 12 Mark question plan/ proforma

(1)
This is what I've started using with my exam classes. We're using FFAACE for the structure of the answer For For (religious) Against Against (religious) Conclude & Evaluate The idea is that at least two arguments should be religious rather than just sociological or other. We are using PEEEL for each paragraph Point Evidence Explanation Evaluation Link (to question) If all students follow this pattern then it should make it easier for them and bring their grade up as they will inevitably meet the criteria for the higher levels. thanks for looking!

Buddhism the Three Marks of Existence

(1)
Linked to the previous lesson (available for free) This unit explores Buddhism by first looking at the primary concepts. This is the second lesson and it focuses on the three marks of existence. The mandala they have created as homework from the previous lesson are torn in half, used as a way of experiencing this concept of the first mark, anicca. It is an engaging lesson, punctuated by GCSE style thinking and writing questions.

AQA GCSE RE RS - Christianity Beliefs - L9 Problem of Evil

(0)
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.
