Zakah Muslim Attitudes to Money

(1)
A full lesson within a scheme of learning on Islam and specifically the 5 pillars. There are lots of active learning strategies and differentiated tasks in this lesson. I have made reference to a clip and images which I also used. Additionally, I have given suggestions of how to adapt/run activities in the slide notes clearly. I used this lesson at a job interview and was successful with the lesson described as outstanding.
United Nations Differentiated lesson

United Nations Differentiated lesson

(1)
This lesson is part of the 'Peace and conflict' topic within GCSE Edexcel Religious Studies. Students really enjoy passing through the different tasks. Details and ideas for the activities are within the slide notes for you to adapt if required. The Edexcel 'Religion & Society' textbook is required or a suitable alternative that has an example of a conflict where the United Nations has tried to resolve. A couple of the activities can then be very easily adapted to fulfil your needs. Common examples are Kosovo and Darfur in textbooks. Students show very clear progress in this lesson.

You can use this resource with any subject and key stage. The excel document helps you to RAG students test/quiz scores, see cumulative scores and nominate a gold, silver and bronze winner after a topic/term/year. I often have students peer assess then call out results during the register. There is enough space for 30 students and 20 quizzes. The document automatically colours codes scores - red=1-3, yellow=4-6, green=7-10 to show understanding. Also helps to plan intervention with student flagged as 'red'. If students are absent the box remains blue.

This resources provides students with signpost words / key features of theories and arguments for the topics (Edexcel AS Religious Studies / Philosophy & Ethics) - Teleological argument - Problem of evil and suffering - Situation ethics - Utilitarianism Prepare for students as a card sort - each topic in a different colour. Project different past questions onto the board, students must select most relevant headings and order from the cards to address the question. Repeat this process and swap topics around between pairs. Follow-up activity could include mind mapping what students know about the key features/how they connect then pass the mind map on to another pair to add what they think has been missed.

GCSE Religious Studies Environmental & Medical Issues Homeworks

(0)
A series of homeworks ready to use for Edexcel's Unit 8. Religion & Society based on Christianity & Islam. Perfect to hand out in class or to upload to platforms such as show my homework. In each homework students must correctly match up the answers with the corresponding question. There is also an answer sheet for teachers. In the lesson due in we then complete a 10 question class quiz (same homework Q's but without notes) and collect in the scores. We have found this has a big impact - lower ability students simply learn the facts., higher ability must match them up - differentiate the homework! You can also view the class quiz leaderboard I have uploaded as this can be used alongside the homeworks/quizzes and add a competitive element to even homework/fact learning! L1 homework questions/answers are marked using the first ten and then second ten to fit in with how the scoreboard works however. I will be adding a few more questions from this topic - even if you get the resource you can get the additions.
