-Death & The Afterlife
-Religion & Science
-The Nature of Good & Evil
Also covers some Humanist Views (though in much less detail compared to Christianity)
Designed for OCR B but applicable to other exam specifications, including post 2016 specifications.
Video files associated with lessons are not included for copyright reasons: but all can be found on YouTube, or replaced with ones of your choosing.
How much is your time worth? This will save you a lot of it!

This download is for a customisable PowerPoint file that allows you to make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ lessons.
Individual ‘Philosophy Boxes’ lessons are sold as PowerPoint Shows and cannot be edited. This download, however, allows you to customise the content to suit your own lessons.
The format/method is copyrighted by the original author (Adam Godwin, 2017) so resources you create are strictly NOT for re-sale.
The aim of Philosophy Boxes is to bring philosophy into every subject at every level: we believe that any subject becomes philosophy when students are asked the right questions and when they think about a topic hard enough and on the deepest (most fundamental) level.
The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities [that use 1 of 8 different formats].
The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from.
The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes.
A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86
The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to P4C designed for students in KS1, 2 & 3: it is graphically stimulating, engaging, and fun. This download is also suitable for older students: but the format was designed with younger students in mind.
The topic of this Philosophy Boxes presentation is: “Art, Aesthetics & The Nature of Beauty”

The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes.
The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity.
The download includes a PowerPoint Show; if you would like an editable PPT presentation so that you can make your own ‘Philosophy Boxes’ presentation you will need to download the template here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/-the-philosophy-boxes-method-template-for-creating-your-own-philosophy-boxes-lessons-p4c-p4k-11463227

You can also save money by purchasing lessons as bundles.
This bundle comprises 6 x double-sided A4 worksheets: each one containing a PLC and various DIRT tasks.
This bundle is for OCR KS5 Religious Studies courses covering Judaism; the bundle includes PLC worksheets for:
-AS & A2 Judaism (Developments in Jewish Thought)
-AS & A2 Philosophy of Religion
-AS & A2 Ethics (Normative Ethical Theories & Applied Ethics)
All PLC content is directly linked to the new OCR exam specification (2017 onwards).
Given how much time it would take to make all six PLCs oneself, I hope this download is a “no-brainer” for any KS5 Religious Studies teacher!
The first side of each worksheet is PLC with two ways for the student to rate confidence and the second side features a key-word check as well as various DIRT tasks.
These double-sided A4 worksheets are great for:
-Revision lessons
-AfL
-Fostering teacher-student dialogue
-Directed Individual Reflection Time (DIRT)
-Exam preparation
-Checking key-word knowledge (literacy)
These are ideal tools for your students to help them keep track of their learning, and help you monitor the classes strengths and weaknesses. It serves as a highly efficient form of self-assessment.
On the reverse of the worksheets are other useful measures that allow teachers to gauge a student’s confidence and reflective abilities.
The worksheet:
-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.
-Highlights key-words necessary for the students success, specific to each section.
If this download has saved you time and meets your quality standards I would be very grateful for positive reviews so that other teachers can benefit from the bundle.
