This is something I pieced together for a year ten class to introduce them to drawing flood hydrographs. There is a powerpoint to go along with it, which is animated and helps explain what each part of the hydrograph means. This can be editied at will, but it worked quite well in this format.
Brief intro to Buddhism, again pretty self explanatory.
I was trialling a new thing where objectives are displayed at all times - haven't kept with it to be honest but it&'s an idea - maybe you can adapt it and make it a bit better!
Just a few fun dingbats I found elsewhere, thought I'd stick them up on here. They work quite well for middle-lower ability year ten classes, and act as a good starter to get them thinking at the beginning of the lesson.
These are the lessons from my first half term teaching RE - so be kind. They're complete with activities and they get across the basic ideas, and the pupils learn the messages intended.
You might want to jazz &'em up a bit though. Just sayin&';.
Complete SOW for Rites of Passage (RE KS3)<br />
<br />
NB: Differentiated resources are also included where necessary - LA meaning low ability. <br />
<br />
Also, the lesson marked '9y2' is slightly altered to suit this lower ability set. <br />
<br />
Enjoy.
These are some activities I have created from past exam papers - I think map skills is something that gets done as an afterthought rather than as key points of a lesson. So because of this I have created 5 activities, each of which may taken between 10-15 minutes and can be done as part of a lesson. Included with this also is an A4 ordinance survey symbol sheet which can be laminated and used over again. If i've missed out any symbols feel free to add more!
Another interview lesson - this one to get pupils interested in different types of settlements and why they are different. This is really for year 7/low ability year 8 - and needs to be adapted to the area (West Cowick was where most of them lived, and the towns in the function section were all local). Localising the places really brings this home to pupils as they connect more. Feel free to alter/destroy if you want - please comment if you feel it's deserved!
This was an interview lesson I used last year to encourage pupils to think differently about China, the lesson went very well, and I received positive feedback for my resources. Feel free to use at will!
I've spent the last few weeks putting together a booklet of the case studies relevant to my year 10 for their GCSE Geography Exam next year. The booklet is set out in order, and includes spaces for pupils to fill in information relevant to the studies. There are suggested ones on here (in line with the Oxford GCSE textbook) but of course you may edit this any way you choose. <br />
It is designed to act as a 'fill in as you go' booklet for my classes this year, however I also plan to use it to set homework, coverwork (if required) and eventually to use them as a revision tool.<br />
The booklet is 47 pages long, and due to copyright I have had to remove all the pictures that I would have included on each page (although there is a description in each gap of which picture should have been there). <br />
I hope you will find this useful - I have been using this for a few weeks now and I am glad I put the time in!<br />

<p>A powerpoint and map resource for KS3 students to help them plot and plan Santa’s global distribution route for presents.</p>
<p>Have a bit of fun with it - what problems as a sleigh / reindeer combo will they face? E.g. having to avoid the Himalayas (air too thin to support a sleigh full of presents?) island hopping across the Atlantic or Pacific as it’s a big distance without stopping for a carrot?</p>
<p>Atlas’ required (although depending on students’ knowledge, not absolutely necessary).</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
This is a lesson put together to take pupils through a typical set of MFL questions in the RE GCSE (Edexcel). <br />
<br />
Included in the lesson (slide 3) is a 'mark scheme' bookmark I laminated and gave to each pupil for use in class. This is a really useful tool for quick peer assessment in lessons - unfortunately I no longer have the original file, but this should be fine to adapt or blow up a little and print off.
A brief introduction to Judaism for year 7 - received an 'Outstanding&' observation for it so it&';s probably worth sharing!
With the question race - cut them up individually, then get pupils to work in pairs. I had them alternating turns to run up to the front so I could check both team members were making good progress. Give them the fact sheet, then they can take the questions, answer them and show you their answer for the next question. Takes some management but pupils loved it!
This is a lesson I used to gain my current post, and one I have used in the past. The powerpoint is self-explanatory, but the lesson plan is included too.
This is a great way of coaxing students to complete a case study but in simplified ways. Adapt and change how you want - steal activities or add to them - up to you! Please comment if you feel it deserves one!
KS3 RE Scheme of work. <br />
<br />
Each powerpoint is titled (you may have to match the resources up). Enjoy!<br />
<br />
NB1: For the Dawin/Evo lesson - the 'booklet' referred to is simply the last two slides stapled together.<br />
<br />
NB2: There is no powerpoint for the Islamic creation.<br />
<br />
NB3: Right and Wrong and Storyboard go with Adam / Eve - ran out of ideas a bit with this and did storyboards two lessons in a row - terrible I know. Another way I've done it is by allowing pupils to re-enact the story of creation in 3's (for Adam/Eve) or groups (for Islam). <br />
