Activity Generator (Humanities/RS/Philosophy) - Design Beautiful PPTs in no time!

(1)
This resource is the product of 3 years teaching RS & Philosophy and, under observations, the lessons it has helped create have all been rated as good-outstanding. It is designed to make the creation of PPT presentations/lessons very quick and easy and includes: -Introduction slides -Learning Activities -Plenary Tasks -MAF There are over 100 slides. Most of the contents are easily adaptable to other subjects (especially Humanities subjects). Most activities are designed with differentiation in mind. In terms of design: slides may feature timers, animations, and stimulating graphics. I have always been a bit of a perfectionist in my design and hope it comes across in the slides. Thanks in advance for supporting my work: I hope it saves you a lot of time, improves your practice, and helps your students learn in an exciting and stimulating way. Sincerely, Adam Godwin
