Just a pro-forma for Diamond 9 sorting activities

This is a set of 5 lessons with resources which were planned by myself and aimed to provide a good introduction to some deeper thinking with a group of Year 8s who wanted to try some deeper thinking.

Print these on A3 paper and laminate to give students easy starters to support verbal dialogue. Used in a DfE observed lesson and judged outstanding for literacy support.

This is a lesson which covers a topic of AQA's Religion and Life (Theme B) from Christian/Atheist perspectives. These are designed for our students, so you may need to adapt them before use, but they all contain differentiated tasks and learning objectives.<br /> <br /> L4 - Big Bang theory

A set of activities that was intended to build into a longer project to support our weaker boys in developing their writing skills. Should last at least 2 lessons.

This is a lesson which covers the first topic in AQA's Religion and Life (Theme B) from Christian/Atheist perspectives. These are designed for our students, so you may need to adapt them before use, but they all contain differentiated tasks and learning objectives.<br /> <br /> L1 - Scientific and Religious Truth

This is a lesson which covers a topic from AQA's Religion and Life (Theme B) from different perspectives. These are designed for our students, so you may need to adapt them before use, but they all contain differentiated tasks and learning objectives.

This is a lesson which guides students in how to answer each specific element with an example. This has been awesome in helping my students understand the structure of answers.<br /> <br /> This can be adapted to suit any of the themes.

I think found this on twitter a while ago, but can't find the link since. Students colour in the s'egg&'ments as they use a skill/achieve a LO/effectively use a concept. The segments should be levelled appropriately and will allow a student to see where they are currently, where they need to go next and what the final aim of the lesson will be.This allows students to see roughly where they are in the context of the lesson, and how to progress. If you link it to plenaries/activities it shows an inspector rapid progress.
