I'm currently employed as a Subject Leader of Religious Education, Philosophy and Ethics at an outstanding grammar school. I am currently reading a PhD in Philosophy, having obtained an MA in Philosophy of Religion and and a BA in Philosophy. The resources I create and sell are those I use myself. I aim for my lessons to include a range of activities and for students to not only learn about my subject, but find doing so interesting.

Morality - Situation Ethics

Morality - Situation Ethics

(0)
This lesson is the second of four lessons on ethics, which culminates in an Edexcel GCSE-Style assessment. Though designed as a sequence each lesson can be taught without the others. The scheme of work was designed for a particularly gifted year 8 set however, would definitely be suitable for all of KS3 and KS4. This lesson could easily last two hours. It investigates the development of Situation Ethics as an ethical theory, examining how it is applied, and its strengths and weaknesses as an ethical theory. Please leave a review for this lesson.

Philosophy for Children (Logic and Ethics)

Philosophy for Children (Logic and Ethics)

10 Resources
This Bundle includes two different lessons sequences, one on Logic and one on Ethic, and easily includes enough content to take up a term of lessons at one hour a week. Once the students have completed the sequences, they should have a sophisticated understanding of the different ethical theories included, and a strong working knowledge of logical argument. The lessons were designed for a very gifted KS3 set however, I’ve also used them for KS4 RE Core lessons.

This lesson has been designed as one of nine lessons (three of which involve the creation and presentation of piece of student work) on Alternative Religions, all of which are for sale on TES. All lessons have been designed for a capable KS3 class (I use them for year 8), are fully differentiated with additional challenges, and include a range of activities. Although part of a series of lessons, each lesson has also been designed to work perfectly as a stand-alone. Please leave a review of this lesson.
