The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to P4C designed for students in KS1, 2 & 3: it is graphically stimulating, engaging, and fun. This download is also suitable for older students: but the format was designed with younger students in mind. The topic of this Philosophy Boxes download is ‘Christian Philosophy (Philosophy of Religion)’. The aim of Philosophy Boxes is to bring philosophy and critical thinking into every subject at every level: we believe that any subject becomes philosophy when students are asked the right questions and when they think about a topic hard enough and on the deepest (most fundamental) level. The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities [that use 1 of 8 different formats]. The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from. The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes. The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity. The download includes a PowerPoint Show; if you would like an editable PPT presentation so that you can make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ presentation you will need to download the template here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-the-philosophy-boxes-method-template-for-creating-your-own-philosophy-boxes-lessons-p4c-p4k-11463227 A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86 You can also save money by purchasing lessons as bundles.

This is one of a series of lessons designed for AQA GCSE Hinduism, though it is also suitable for KS3 students studying Hindu festivals. The download contains two lesson options: 1) A video and documentary based approach based around a (rather beautiful, if I do say so myself) A3 Worksheet. [Includes PPT, Worksheet and Lesson Plan] 2) An ICT Suite 'Research, Present & Quiz' approach, which includes integrated peer-assessment. [Includes PPT and Worksheet, Lesson Plan not necessary as it's such a straightforward approach]. The focus of this lesson is the Hindu festival specified in the title, similar lessons can be downloaded for different Hindu festivals.

This video worksheet session covers the topic of Buddhist Festivals. It is a complete lesson that, whilst very flexible, can last for over an hour if needs be. This lesson is one of a 10-part series of KS3 video-learning lessons for the religion of Buddhism. You can save money by buying the complete set by clicking the link below. It is a perfect 'instant lesson' and is useful both to RE specialists and as an emergency cover lesson led by non-specialists: all you need to do is print out one of the included worksheets and run the PowerPoint! Aside from links to carefully selected videos; this download includes: -a full lesson PowerPoint Show (.ppsx) -AfL tasks -SIX video-learning worksheets (.doc or .pdf) -A detailed lesson plan (and a slightly amended version for cover teachers) The worksheets are specially designed 'Video-Learning Worksheets' that structure students' learning whilst they use documentary evidence to research a subject: three of the worksheets are A4 and the other 3 A3 size (all double-sided!). Our video-learning sessions are also useful for GCSE Religious Studies classes. Since we provide a selection of video-links for each topic it is easy to differentiate for your class: you can even use your own videos in conjunction with the video-learning worksheets provided.
