This product features three different worksheet formats. Each of these colourful double-sided worksheets encourages students to engage in metacognition and self-regulated learning: At the start of each term these worksheets encourage students to reflect on how the previous term went, how they have prepared for the new term, how they can improve their learning strategies, and how they can plan for success in the new term - anticipating challenges ahead. The mid-term reflection worksheets encourage students to monitor progress, evaluate current approaches to learning, identify obstacles and reflect on how to overcome them, and anticipate the requirements of end-of-term assessments. The end-of-term reflection worksheets help students to reflect on how the term went, the progress they have made, the quantity and quality of their learning, the strengths and weaknesses in their approaches to learning, how they can improve moving forward, and how they might be best prepared for the next term. The worksheets emphasise target-setting at each stage and engage students in the self-regulated learning cycle (of planning, monitoring, evaluating, and regulating their approaches to learning. The download includes easy-print .pdf versions of the worksheets as well as editable .doc (Microsoft Word) versions in-case you need to customise them for your students.

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 download is ‘Christian Ethics (Morality in Christianity)’ The aim of Philosophy Boxes is to bring philosophy and critical thinking 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. 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 A complete selection of Philosophy Boxes lessons can be found here: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=philosophy+boxes+godwin86 You can also save money by purchasing lessons as bundles.
