Unit: Paper 3: Religion & Ethics
Exam Board: Eduqas
This is a last minute revision lesson on religion and ethics. This is designed for the Eduqas exam board but may suit other exam boards. This lesson is designed to be taught just before the exam but can be adapted to suit.
A printer friendly version is included.
Teaching Note: You will also want to have some copies of past papers available to give to students.
Starter
The starter are 10 simple questions taken from across philosophy. Students can either answer them in their books or you could go around the room and ask students the questions.
Answers are in the notes section of the PowerPoint
Overview of the Paper
Students are given a brief overview of the paper and reminded of the recommended timings for each question.
There are then some top tips for success to help students succeed.
Short Summary of Ethics
Each topic has been summarised on a single PowerPoint slide. You can either teach this, go through topics that students are stuck on or just print the slides out for students to look over. A printer friendly version is also included.
Generic Evaluation Points
These are generic points that can be used when students are stuck and cannot think of anything to write. My students have found these really helpful so I hope yours do to!
Blurt Sheets
Students pick a sheet for the topic they want to revise.
They then:
Write down everything they can remember about the topic in one colour
Swap sheets with the person next to them & then update the sheet with extra information in a second colour
Use their notes to finish the sheet off in a third colour with lots of detail
I also normally give students past papers at this point to look through as well and let them lead what we will do, going round and helping, answering questions and teaching anything that I feel like we need to go over again.
Plenary
Write down four things they remembered, four things they were reminded of and four things they learned
