When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! (Board game in the style of trivial pursuit!) In this life-sized classroom favourite, compete against other teams to gather enough lemons to make lemonade – 6 in total! Each colour of lemon represents a different topic of Religious Studies GCSE (9-1) Philosophy and Ethics (Eduqas Specification). Topics include: Key Words Teachings and Quotes History of Islam Beliefs Practices Allah Take it in turns to roll the dice and move either yourself or a space-saver around the board game. (A space saver can be anything – a small object like a highlighter pen or a rubber!) Move the number of spaces on the dice in any direction. When you land on a space, answer the same-coloured question correctly to collect the token! When you have collected all tokens, make your way towards the centre of the board and answer the difficult ‘Making Lemonade’ question to successfully make the lemonade and win the game! An imaginative and energising game centred around any topic of your choice! The game is ready to go - all you need to do is print! The download comes complete with the board spaces, 25 question cards (150 questions and answers in total), instructions and tokens… all you need is a thirst for knowledge and a legendary sense of fun. The board itself is set up in the shape of a large circle, with a cross-section, where learners can get to the middle ‘Making Lemonade’ space. You will need floor space for this! There is nothing more symbolic or exciting to learners than asking them to get rid of the tables, chairs and pens for a lesson! Please see the images for more guidance on how to set up the board. Any hints, tips or otherwise are more than welcome, after all, that’s what the education world is about!

This revision lesson aims to prepare students for an upcoming assessment or exam for the ‘Religion’ element of their GCSE in time-saving and engaging methods. This lesson explores Christianity and Islam. It is created with the AQA GCSE in mind, though is adaptable across specifications. The only difference would be the way in which some of the key words are spelled in Islam, e.g. ‘Mecca/Makkah’ however this is not considered when awarding SPAG anyway. In addition, the original editable documents are included, so you can tailor the language/spellings for your class/qualification. The PowerPoint includes: Aims of the lesson Topics in Christianity, identifying which ones will be covered in the lesson (NB only the more difficult topics are explored in this lesson) Topics in Islam, identifying the ones covered in the lesson (NB only the more difficult topics are explored in this lesson) Topics covered: Jesus Salvation and Grace Worship Worldwide Church Six Articles/Five Roots Predestination and Free Will Five Pillars and Ten Obligatory Acts Festivals The activities are a collection of time-saving revision activities that minimalise writing, making the lesson suitable for all learners. Answers are also embedded into the PowerPoint via attractive and engaging animations. The corresponding learning mat is two-sided (one side for Islam, another for Christianity) and correspond with the work on the PowerPoint. All resources are available in their original Microsoft Word format, though can be downloaded as PDFs too, for compatibility purposes. Please give feedback!

This revision lesson aims to prepare students for an upcoming assessment or exam for the ‘Philosophy and Ethics’ or 'Themes’ element of their GCSE in time-saving and engaging methods. This lesson explores common cores to all units. Within AQA, there are 6 P&E units, so covering all in one lesson would be impossible. Therefore, I have created a ‘common core’ lesson that provides the foundation and support required for all units. It is created with the AQA GCSE in mind, though is adaptable across specifications. The only difference would be the way in which some of the key words are spelled in Islam, e.g. ‘Mecca/Makkah’ however this is not considered when awarding SPAG anyway. In addition, the original editable documents are included, so you can tailor the language/spellings for your class/qualification. The PowerPoint includes: Aims of the lesson Authority and Influences Key Christian Teachings and Interpretations Humanist Beliefs and Values Case Studies Debate Skills - Analysis and Evaluation The activities are a collection of time-saving revision activities that minimalise writing, making the lesson suitable for all learners.

Due to the change in the way teaching will happen in September, I have revised the GCSE Themes: Crime and Punishment (AQA - though applicable across specifications - sometimes known as ‘Good and Evil’) unit to include no sharing of resources and PowerPoint-led learning through an engaging and well-designed Work Pack. This unit explores all of the nuanced and specialist learning by adopting socially distant teaching techniques. The PowerPoints aid a ‘plug in and play’ approach to teaching, as staff will be moving around a lot and will not be able to carry the normal resources needed for a lesson outside of a specialist curriculum area. In addition, the Powerpoint and the Work Pack now includes all resources that the students need to access an engaging, high-quality education, whilst effectively minimising risk to health due to the current situation. Lessons include: L1 Authority and Religion L2 -3 Crime, Good and Evil L4 Aims of Punishment L5 Prisons and Treatment of Criminals L6 Corporal Punishment L7 Capital Punishment L8 Suffering and Forgiveness Comprehensive Work Pack also included with a variety of activities, development of analysis and evaluation skills and exam practise. Scaffolding is included in the Powerpoint itself and also in the Work Pack to ensure maximum engagement and comprehension. Challenges (extension tasks) also exist throughout the unit to further enhance skills and understanding. There are a variety of knowledge, understanding and evaluation tasks throughout the unit, including video and debate activities that the students always love - year-on-year. Please give feedback!
