This download contains a Personal Learning Checklist for the ‘Religion, Crime & Punishment’ [Theme E] section of the AQA GCSE Religious Studies course [Thematic Studies]. It includes four different formats.
The download includes 4 different versions of PLC for you to choose from! Each with slightly different reflection/target-setting activities. This means you can give students the PLC at different points in the year without it being too repetitive and boring for them.
These double-sided A4 worksheets are great for:
-Revision lessons
-AfL
-Fostering teacher-student dialogue
-Directed Improvement Reflection Time (DIRT)
-Exam preparation
This is an ideal tool for your students to help them keep track of their learning, manage revision and help you monitor the classes strengths and weaknesses. It serves as a highly efficient form of self-assessment.
The first side is a checklist with two ways for the student to rate confidence for each of the sub-topics and the second side features other useful measures that allow teachers to gauge a student’s confidence and reflective abilities.
The worksheets:
-Allows the student to see clearly what they need to know for the exam.
-Allows the student to communicate to their teacher how they can be best helped.
-Gets the student to analyse their progress in relation to their target grade.
-Encourages students to reflect in a structured manner on their necessary revision focusses.
-Gets students to establish both a revision and an exam technique focus.
Created by a Philosophy teacher and experienced formal debater in collaboration with his colleagues in the Maths department.
This PPT file contains 100 debates and discussion relevant to the study of mathematics and, especially, ‘The Philosophy of Mathematics’ (allowing teachers to bring P4C [philosophy for children] into the Maths classroom). The presentation is complete with exciting animated graphics to foster engagement!
The file contains a randomiser slide, allowing a random debate topic to be generated.
Each debate slide asks students to move from one side of the room or the other to make their position clear: teachers should then use questioning to foster a debate between students, encouraging them to present reasons for their choice and defend their position.
Uses:
-Effortless planning of Maths lessons
-Instant cover lessons
-Debating societies
-Maths P4C (Philosophy for children) cross-curricular resource
-Making best use of spare time at the end of lessons
-Form time activities
-Developing speaking and communication skills
-SMSC (deals with some moral and spiritual issues in relation to maths)
Topics are generally accessible to all ages, but the product is designed with KS3-5 in mind.
Thank you for taking the time to look at this product: if you are interested in other debate generating products I have also made similar products relating to Philosophy, Moral Dilemmas, and History.
This bundle contains 20 lessons for the ‘Social Stratification’ section of the new GCSE Sociology specification. This bundle was updated in March 2020 so that all of the PowerPoints are in the standard format and, consequently, more easy to edit than before.
Whilst it is useful to any teacher of Sociology, it was designed for the new AQA Sociology GCSE specification (8192) taught from September 2017.
It is designed to be a self-contained, comprehensive and complete resource: everything a teacher/department need to teach the social stratification section of the course.
Each lesson comes in a .Zip file which contains:
-A detailed lesson plan: highlighting differentiation, AfL, key-words, SMSC and a timeline of learning activities (.pdf)
-A premium quality, editable, PowerPoint Presentation
-Homework
[-Most of the lessons include a worksheet (double-sided A4 or A3)]
We take considerable time making the highest quality lessons and we believe these are the best GCSE Sociology resources money can buy, positive reviews are greatly appreciated (and rewarded, just email me).
Our intention is to have the other units of the new GCSE Sociology course available by June.

This download is for AQA Sociology GCSE (the new specification, 2017 onwards).
It refers to the topic of EDUCATION (equivalent downloads for the other 3 sections are available in our shop or in a bundle)
It is a:
-Personal Learning Checklist
-DIRT Worksheet
-Complete list of key-words
-Key-word review Worksheet
For the EDUCATION section of the course.
The worksheets ask students to:
-Indicate Red/Amber/Green for all topics on the specification.
-Indicate a confidence rating out of 10 for all topics on the specification.
-State their target and current grade
-Ask the teacher one question
-State their exam technique target
-State their revision focus
-Tell the teacher what they can do to help the student reach their target
-Highlight key-words the student is unsure about
-Indicate the total number of key-words the student is unsure about
-State 10 key-words they will research the meaning of before the next lesson.
It is therefore the perfect worksheet to structure a DIRT, progress review or revision lesson with in relation to the EDUCATION topic of AQA GCSE Sociology (2017 onwards).
This bundle contains 4 revision sessions, designed to cover the ‘EDUCATION’ section of the new AQA Sociology specification.
The revision sessions feature:
-A ‘grid of learning’ post-it task (to focus students on the day’s topic and refresh their memories of the basics)
-A 'competitive mind-mapping task (which can be completed on the whiteboard or on A3 paper)
-A silent debate task (with 6 x A3 silent debate worksheets in an editable .doc file) [nb. allowing group conversation, instead of silence, is also an effective approach]
-Debates that ask students to move from one side of the room or the other and verbalise a defence of their position in response to a statement or rubric.
-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
Each session follows the same format, they can be:
-Used as revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams
-Sandwiched between lessons as they are taught throughout the year as a way of solidifying and assessing learning
Please note: the cover picture depicts some of the activities that make up this revision session, the wording within those tasks is adapted to the topic specified above and may differ from the wording depicted. Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.
