I am an experienced Religion, Ethics and Philosophy teacher who has taught 11-18 education for my whole career. I have taught a variety of GCSE and A Level syllabuses but am currently teaching the new AQA GCSE Spec A and AQA A level Philosophy. My intention in creating resources is to support students in understanding the holistic approach to the subject and to prepare them for exams in a way that means that they are well rehearsed in what the examiner will expect from them.

The Amazing Human Body

The Amazing Human Body

(0)
This quiz is great as a start to either your very first Human Biology lesson or looking at what makes humans unique in Religious Education lessons. It would be best used by getting students to move around the classrooms to vote for answer 1, 2 or 3, then asking them why they chose that answer before revealing the true answer. Students love a little competition and it’s even better when they probably have no idea what the answer is and are therefore making rapid progress in their learning.
What makes humans unique? Assessment

What makes humans unique? Assessment

(0)
This assessment can be completed after lessons considering what it is that makes human beings different to other species of animals if anything! They will need to have considered similarities and differences between humans and animals (i.e. emotions, soul, pleasure/pain, ability to discuss and answer ultimate questions, Universal Declaration of Human Rights etc). Using resources like the Simpsons episode ‘Bart sells his soul’ can be useful in the soul debate, especially when you compare that to the Buddhist view that we do not have a soul and the story of Nagasena’s Chariot.
