Hello fellow teachers, This booklet resource was created for my GCSE students during lockdown, I have found this to be a great way of ensuring that all students have what they need despite working in the classroom or at home. I have continued to use this resource now we have gone back to in school teaching and I have seen a significant improvement in students using religious information in their exam answers. Each student has a printed copy and then I upload a digitial copy online using Google Classroom so they have access at home too. The booklet contains: Title Page Contents Page Personal Learning Checklist using the Edexcel Specification B Core Knowledge Organiser Lessons 1-8 information including scripture Key word glossary Practice Exam Questions My year 11s can now use this booklet as a revision resource too as it contains everything that they need to go over core content.

Hello, I have created a Personal Learning Checklist using Edexcel Spec B Paper 1 Topic 3 Living the Christian Life. I have also created a double sided ‘Core Knowledge’ revision sheet detailing what our students need to learn for the exam. I have also created a worksheet for the students to fill in on the PPT. See slide 3 and 4 - I print this off double sided and have it blown up to A3 for the students to complete. I have used the textbook endorsed by Edexcel written by Gordon Reid and Sarah K Tyler. I hope you find these materials useful!
