This is the sixth of seven fully resourced lessons for GCSE Buddhism Thematic Studies, Theme E 'Religion, Crime & Punishment'. The lesson uses videos and professionally designed video-learning worksheets to provide an overview of Buddhist perspectives on the theme.
It is a great 'instant lesson' and is useful both to RE specialists and as an emergency cover lesson led by non-specialists: all you need to do is print out one of the included worksheets and run the PowerPoint - which will link you to carefully selected videos about the topic.
Aside from links to carefully selected videos; this download includes:
-A full lesson PowerPoint
-AfL tasks
-SIX video-learning worksheets (.doc or .pdf)
-A detailed lesson plan
The worksheets are specially designed 'Video-Learning Worksheets' that structure students' learning whilst they use documentary evidence to research a subject: three of the worksheets are A4 and the other 3 are A3 size (all double-sided!).
Positive reviews are warmly welcome!

This 2-year scheme of work lays out, lesson by lesson, the topics to be covered for the teaching of Buddhism at GCSE Level.
It is based on the Full-Course OCR B Specification for Religious Studies released in 2016.
The SoW outlines everything that needs to be taught in the first section of the course [Beliefs and teachings & Practices] (where Buddhism is taught alongside another religion of your choosing) and, crucially, a plan for teaching Buddhism as the sole religion for the 'Religion, philosophy and ethics in the modern world from a religious perspective ’ section of the course.
In short, this scheme of work covers teachers who:
-Want to teach Buddhism as a comparative religion at GCSE level (using the OCR B Specification)
-Want to teach Buddhism as main religion of study for the second part of the OCR B course.
-Want a course-design for a secondary/high-school level unit on Buddhism.
Each lesson will, in time, have resources to accompany them in our shop:
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/godwin86
We hope to offer every single lesson on this SoW, allowing any R.S. teacher on the OCR B specification to teach Buddhism throughout the 2-year GCSE course.
This download contains 4 personal learning checklists (PLCs)(in 3 files), based on the latest OCR B Religious Studies Short-Course specification (2016 onwards): focussing on the religion of Christianity.
Individual PLCs (for each section of the short-course) can be purchased for £2, this bundle saves you over 50%.
The PLC contains a list of all topics students are needed to know in relation to Christianity: students are asked to indicate their confidence level by shading red/amber/green and giving a confidence score of 1-10.
On the reverse of the sheet are other useful measures that allow teachers to gauge a student’s confidence and reflective abilities.
The Personal Learning Checklist (PLC):
-Encourages students to reflect in a structured manner on revision focusses.
-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.
-Gets students to establish both a revision and an exam technique focus.
This is an essential resource for any teacher of OCR B Short-Course Religious Studies (Christianity) and downloading it will save you the tedious and time-consuming task of compiling your own PLCs.
