We all believe in something. It may be one thing; it may be lots of things. Some may be easier to believe than others, but this is down to each person’s opinion.
These worksheets help students to question what they believe and why, and which sources can be used upon to support those opinions. Using the legend surrounding the reported sightings of an ape-man roaming the snowy wastes of the Himalayas, the students research the evidence behind the myth and assess them for their reliability. Discussions are also held regarding how we decide what we believe in.

This worksheet booklet begins by looking at the statistics of bullying and asking the students whether anything surprises them. They are asked to identify what they believe a bully looks and sounds like, which can spark an interesting discussion. We debate what is considered bullying as well as the primary types of bullying; physical, verbal, indirect and more commonly today, cyber.
Why people bully and who they target is considered in conjunction with how a bully could be helped, and whether being a bystander makes them as responsible as the bully. Following on from discussing where to go for help and advice both in and outside of school, the students take part in a group project to act out a television or radio advert to give advice to these being bullied, these are then peer assessed.
The booklet concludes in a class debate as to whether head teachers should be able to discipline students for cyber crimes which occur outside of school.
A range of individual and group activities are incorporated within this booklet, including sharing their own thoughts and ideas from their own experiences, comparing their own ideas with others, working as a group on a collective task and assess these in an appropriate manner.

Using the lyrics to ‘Do they know its Christmastime?’ by Band Aid, your students look at whether the descriptions in the song are correct in referring to Africa. They go on to explore the human and physical effects of lack of water, examine some long and short term solutions to desertification and put forward their own ideas and opinions of short term solutions offered by Water Aid.
Just for a bit of fun before the end of term…this quiz has four parts which asks your students to identify ten countries by their outlines, name ten famous landmarks from an image and its location, answer ten geography general knowledge questions and to name ten seasonal songs by a snip-bit taken from them.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
Christmas seems to arrive earlier each year and become more frantic to-boot! I saw this idea a few months back and thought it could be a fun activity with a tutor group or clubs – Especially as my partner pointed out that so many advent calendars appear to have no reference to Christmas apart from the twenty-four little doors.
The idea is a fun and selfless way to celebrate the countdown to Christmas Day, giving us all time to pause and think about the season’s true and original meaning.
I have included twenty-four ideas of my own, however you may have some of your own personal ones to include. Your students may wish to make their own up as a class, in group or individually.
This activity is a fun way to finish off the term but to keep it topical. Suggested use: in groups, half have to argue the case for an artificial tree and the other half have to argue the case for a real tree. The additional information (about Hazel etc) should help them to understand some of the reasons people make choices (i.e. not always for environmental reasons)
