A professionally designed Christmas quiz for Religious Studies teachers to use with their students, featuring 60 well-presented questions and an answer sheet.
If you like it: leave a 5* rating and email us (godwin86@gmail.com) and we’ll send you a beautiful Christmas Crossword worksheet for free!
The quiz also includes a word-search (on screen) and a couple of anagram rounds.
Fifty of the questions are Christmas-related and not connected to a specific school-subject: the final ten are subject specific and deal either with GCSE terminology, KS4 exam specification contents, or “fun facts”.
Differentiation can easily be achieved by changing quiz group sizes. The quiz is suitable for KS3-5.
Completing and peer-marking the 60-question quiz should take the best part of a 1-hour lesson.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
This bundle contains a Christmas quiz for RE teachers* and a selection of seven Christmassy video-worksheets that can be used with any video (or series of videos) to enhance learning and foster engagement.
*We’ve also included our previous version of the quiz for free, just in case you prefer it!
Together they comprise an easy and fun Christmas lesson (you might wish to shorten the quiz if you wish to do this).
They can also be used individually to constitute multiple Christmas lessons. I am confident you will find the video-learning worksheets especially versatile and useful throughout the month building up to the Christmas break.
The resources are suitable for any age group: the quiz can be differentiated easily by changing team sizes.
Please see individual items for more details.
Merry Christmas and thank you for checking-out my resources! :)

Print your own festive revision board game!
This download contains two choices of A3 printable board-games.
They focus on key-word revision and student-generated quiz challenges and are suitable for any KS4 or KS5 classroom where students need to practice key-words.
Please ignore the broken preview files and see the cover picture for an accurate showing of the games: students will be impressed by the high-level of graphic design that’s gone into these.
Students will require a dice/dice-app and tokens to move around the printable boards.
Give students 5-10 minutes to get their quiz questions ready and then they can enjoy playing this game for the rest of the lesson!
This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring debates for GCSE Religious Studies students. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly.
This tool focuses on Christian teachings and does not refer to a specific comparative religion (making it suitable for all GCSE RS teachers). I based the debate topics on commonalities between AQA, OCR and Eduqas specifications: it should be useful regardless of the specification you are using.
Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear.
This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include:
“What is wrong with the other position in your view?”,
“Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”,
“Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?”
It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move.
This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson or revision session. It’s a fun way to introduce a course or to use as an ice-breaker with new classes, and can also be used by tutor groups as a whole-school initiative.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
This is one of a series of lessons designed for AQA GCSE Hinduism, though it is also suitable for KS3 students studying Hindu festivals.
The download contains two lesson options:
A video and documentary based approach based around a (rather beautiful, if I do say so myself) A3 Worksheet. [Includes PPT, Worksheet and Lesson Plan]
An ICT Suite ‘Research, Present & Quiz’ approach, which includes integrated peer-assessment. [Includes PPT and Worksheet, Lesson Plan not necessary as it’s such a straightforward approach].
The focus of this lesson is the Hindu festival specified in the title, similar lessons can be downloaded for different Hindu festivals.
Please check the videos beforehand, some of them contain strong language and I know different schools/teachers have different views about this!
This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring the most important debates relevant to Media Studies classrooms: pitched at KS5/AS/A2 level. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly.
This is an ideal revision tool and can be used for a whole session or an activity that you can re-use over multiple lessons.
Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear.
All topics are inspired from AQA AS/A2 specification though this product is relevant to all teachers of the subject.
This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include:
“What is wrong with the other position in your view?”,
“Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”,
“Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?”
It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move.
This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson or revision session.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
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 Hinduism; the bundle includes PLC worksheets for:
-AS & A2 Hinduism (Developments in Hindu 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 a

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
This bundle contains revision sessions for all six sub-sections of the A2 ‘Developments in Buddhist Thought’ content for OCR Religious Studies (new specification).
The sessions use a variety of mind-mapping, discussion and debate tasks to cover the designated section of the specification.
The revision sessions can be used in a number of ways:
-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
-During extra-curricular time (KS5 Religious Studies Clubs)
This revision session features:
-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.
This session can be purchased individually or as part of various bundles depending on your needs.
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.
