Knowledge organiser for revision and information for the Theme of Religion, Crime and Punishment, as part of the GCSE AQA syllabus. It includes key information; case studies and examples; Christian teachings; Muslim teachings; exam requirements and technique and key vocabulary.
It can be used for independent revision, to aid a structured revision timetable and in lessons. My own students have these glued in their books and are encouraged to refer to them during our learning. At the end of the unit, students are asked to go over the statements and highlight (RAG) their knowledge and understanding of the topics, thereby revealing key areas for revision.
