This lesson contains: The changing nature of Christian demographic (it may be interesting to add in the British census report to this part) Mission and Evangelism recap Case study of Christ for all nations (show them the images on the website) Exit ticket Additional review activity worksheet on Christian practices This resource will not be completed in a single lesson, it is an easy topic and so I have added a supplementary activity in case you complete the lesson quicker than expected. Usually it is suggested you use the AQA Christianity book to supplement these lessons but for this lesson you can do without it. If the resource was a success please do leave me a nice REVIEW :)

My students love getting these worksheets because it gives them independence and you can take a break from teaching from the front. For differentiation I will highlight bits I want certain student to focus on. This worksheet covers the whole topic of Christian worksheet (7pages). This worksheet contains: What is worship Forgiveness Types of worship Public and private worship Examples of worship worship across denominations The value of ritual Types of ritual 12 mark essay This resource will not be completed in a single lesson. You can give it as an in class activity and go through some parts together or as a holiday homework or series of homeworks. Usually it is suggested you use the AQA Buddhism book to supplement these lessons but for this lesson you can do without it. If the resource was a success please do leave me a nice REVIEW :)
Introducing Jesus in KS3

Introducing Jesus in KS3

5 Resources
This resource was designed with the new worldviews curriculum in mind. The bundle traces some key events in the life of Jesus. This is a KS3 resource, year 7s-9. If you wish to expand it further to consider Jesus as Messiah. You could also consider discussing the Parables, Holy week, Life after death etc if you want to spread it out for a term. Otherwise this resource set can be completed in a half term if done efficiently. I personally try to cover a lot in KS3 and move through topics quite swiftly but there is also benefits to stretching this material out, to use the HW sheets as in class materials and then offer shorter homework tasks from textbooks etc. All resources should be supplemented with effective questioning to reap the best results! ‘Tell me more about that?’ ‘Does anyone disagree?’ ‘Why might Jesus have done this?’ etc.

This lesson covers the GCSE AQA Specification for Buddhism. Each lesson contains a starter, plenary, one or more activity, literacy and homework suggestions. I teach them at speed in 50 minutes but I suggest taking the full 55-60 minutes if possible.

All the folders are labelled in order for download but for added clarity the suggested order for the lessons is as follows. Lesson 1 - Buddhist worship Lesson 2 - Samatha Meditation Lesson 3 - Vipassana Meditation Lesson 4 – Visualisation Lesson 5 – Death and Mourning Ceremonies Lesson 6 – Wesak and Parinirvana Day Lesson 7 – Kamma (Karma) Lesson 8 – Compassion (Karuna) Lesson 9 – Loving Kindness (Metta) Lesson 10 – The five moral precepts Lesson 11- (to complete the course you will want to look at the six perfections with students - my students do this by making a poster) GCSE AQA These lessons should be supplemented with photocopies of relevant sections of the AQA Buddhism textbook or students will have a book themselves. I hope you enjoy the resources – please review if you do and I will be uploading more RE resources in the future so watch this space!

Politics resources are few and far between and often of not very high quality. I have got to a place where I feel confident that using my resources I can get fantastic grades and create great and up to date lessons in Politics. This year I started doing Politics teaching consultancy and it made me aware of how difficult a lot of teachers are finding it to build appropriately challenging, in depth and up to date resources. Now I am making some available. FREE single sample lesson on Additional Member System from the Elections unit provided for you to get a sense of what you are buying. This resource can only be bought as a bundle as it contains a whole unit of work for the topic of UK Politics: Voting Behaviours and the Media. Each lesson reflects and builds upon the next. Alongside resources that I have made, the range of Edexcel Politics textbooks, can support this content alongside a subscription to PreChewed Politics but they are not necessary to make use of the resources. If there are answers in the slide notes to questions that you do not know the answers to, you can produce quick answers by plugging in the questions into ChatGPT but if you follow the lessons in order you should find that the circular nature of the resources means that you are always building on previous knowledge. These resources are four years in the making, they offer both a great combination of knowledge and skills development and can be altered and adapted as they come in the form of Microsoft/Google friendly documents. I get fantastic results and happy classrooms so I hope you do to. This contains eleven 1hr lessons (32 files) that match up to the specification Social class and voting behaviour Long term factors affecting voting behaviour Short term factors affecting voting behaviour pt 1 Short term factors affecting voting behaviour pt 2 1979 case study 1997 case study 2019 case study Types of media and opinion polls Media and electoral outcomes Media debates It also includes relevant class resources, homework suggestions and a final assessment.
