It is ideal for:

The resource was developed whilst I taught philosophy, religion, ethics and sociology though all tasks and worksheets are easily adaptable to any subject.
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 “Environmental Ethics & Caring for The Environment”.
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

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.
