Hi welcome to my shop! I'm currently Head of Humanities, but I've also been head of department at a number of other schools, not to mention head of year. So I have a lot of high quality resources to share. I take real pride in trying to ensure my resources are well presented, clear, easy to use and of course challenging and engaging for the students. They have taken me a lot of time to make, but hopefully they will save you a lot of time. If you have any feedback then please review me!

Design your own religion - Alternative Religions

(0)
This is a terrific lesson that challenges the pupils to create their own brand new religion. The lesson can be used as a stand alone lesson, or as part of the ‘Alternative Religions’ SoW. The lesson sets up an imaginary world where they get the opportunity to create their own unique religion based on what they have learned from their R.S. lessons. They work in groups to complete this task, and then present it to the class. The groups will then evaluate each others presentations and relgions (for some peer assessment). This lesson could be one, two or even three lessons.

Case Study - The British Raj - East India Trading company - colonialism

(0)
This is a useful look at an example of colonialism. It investigates why Britain would want to colonise India and what the impact was on both countries as a result of this imperialism. The students need to become ‘experts’ in one areas of this debate, and then teach the other students what they have learned. A good stand alone lesson, or it can be used as part of a SoW on either colonialism or the Industrial Revolution. It is also important to help the students to consider the long term ramifications of colonialism on Indiad development and why it still matters today.

The British Raj - Did the British do more harm than good?

(0)
Was colonialism good for India? While the question might seem obvious the students will be asked to use their critical thinking skills to investigate sources of information. They will be asked to consider why so many people in India still debate whether colonialism was actually a net positive for Indian development. That is the central question at the heart of this excellent lesson the encourages students to learn the history of India and try to identify the positive and negative contributions Britain made. Well worth a look!
