Simple revision sheet for all pupils studying the AQA A 9-1 GCSE Islam unit. Summarises the main parts between articles and pillars in Sunni Islam. The majority of questions in beliefs and practices focus on the 6 articles and 5 pillars. This would be ideal for Grade 3-6 students and it has also been good for grades 7-9 as a form of revision.

This resource can be printed on A4 and acts as a bridge between beliefs and practices In the updated SOW for GCSE Christianity, there is an emphasis on links. Pupils can use this in the following way: Revision tool/knowledge organiser Highlight key words Allocate a range of influences to each belief and then rank them in importance or relevance to promote higher levels of understanding Number each influence and allocate to each belief beginning which ones apply to most of them. Teachers can use it to: develop pupil’s written response with small chunks of information on influences and importance. For example, the crucifixion has obvious influences but also has specific responses. pupils can be stretched to further develop each influence or practice to show deeper understanding especially for 4, 5 and 12 mark extended writing. Check knowledge and understanding through quizzing Pupils can do self test (I do, we do, you do) In class discussion, teacher can call target pupils with each belief and see how many influences they can recall or link. In class discussion, pupils can make active links to the beliefs and practices.

A list of beliefs and practices with key bits in bold to support learners who revise best through lists. I have tried to reduce fact so it is in small chunks.

As a teaching tool can be used to check misconceptions, affirm previous learning and be used a tick sheet to self reflect on what pupils know.
