About the full product:
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 130 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

Philosophy for Children!
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 ‘The Biggest Questions in Philosophy’
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
