Y8 SOW on Justice

This 6 lesson scheme of work looks at justice and freedom from a Christian and secular perspective in for KS3 students. It includes scripture, stories and an assessment lesson to build GCSE skills without the label or pressure. Lessons include homework, challenge, differentiation, starters, tasks and plenaries. It is largely shaped around Christian examples of justice with a focus on the life of Jesus. We begin by looking at the life of Jesus and his example of justice, we then compare with heroes of justice in history in the second lesson. The third lesson introduces martyrdom with a comparison to the disciples. The fourth looks at how the church respond to injustices today. The fifth lesson analyses human rights and what these mean in the face of freedom and justice then the SOW ends with a sixth recap and assessment lesson.
