This bundle contains 6 revision sessions, designed to cover the ‘Culture & Identity’ section of the new AQA Sociology specification.
The revision sessions feature:
-A ‘grid of learning’ post-it task (to focus students on the day’s topic and refresh their memories of the basics)
-A 'competitive mind-mapping task (which can be completed on the whiteboard or on A3 paper)
-A silent debate task (with 6 x A3 silent debate worksheets in an editable .doc file) [nb. allowing group conversation, instead of silence, is also an effective approach]
-Debates that ask students to move from one side of the room or the other and verbalise a defence of their position in response to a statement or rubric.
-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
Each session follows the same format, they can be:
-Used as revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams
-Sandwiched between lessons as they are taught throughout the year as a way of solidifying and assessing learning
Please note: the cover picture depicts some of the activities that make up this revision session, the wording within those tasks is adapted to the topic specified above and may differ from the wording depicted. Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.

This lesson is useful both for English Literature, Religious Studies & Philosophy Teachers.
It is also an invaluable resource for teachers organising ‘Chinese Culture Days’ as whole-school or KS3 events.
It focusses on Chinese Philosophy & Poetry, comparing the 3 main schools of thought in traditional Chinese culture: Confucianism, Buddhism and, especially, Daoism/Taoism; the lesson then asks students to read, analyse and discuss carefully selected poems from the 2500 year-old ‘Tao Te Ching’ (The most single most widely translated text from China).
The file contains a PPT, Worksheet, and ‘Knowledge Hunt’ resource. See the main slide for a general idea of the structure of the lesson.
This 2-year scheme of work lays out, lesson by lesson, the topics to be covered for the teaching of Buddhism at GCSE Level.
It is based on the Full-Course OCR B Specification for Religious Studies released in 2016.
The SoW outlines everything that needs to be taught in the first section of the course [Beliefs and teachings & Practices] (where Buddhism is taught alongside another religion of your choosing) and, crucially, a plan for teaching Buddhism as the sole religion for the 'Religion, philosophy and ethics in the modern world from a religious perspective ’ section of the course.
In short, this scheme of work covers teachers who:
-Want to teach Buddhism as a comparative religion at GCSE level (using the OCR B Specification)
-Want to teach Buddhism as main religion of study for the second part of the OCR B course.
-Want a course-design for a secondary/high-school level unit on Buddhism.
Each lesson will, in time, have resources to accompany them in our shop:
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/godwin86
We hope to offer every single lesson on this SoW, allowing any R.S. teacher on the OCR B specification to teach Buddhism throughout the 2-year GCSE course.
