NEW AQA 1-9 GCSE 1 year Sow, homework, key word glossaries & first lessons

(0)
I have created a Year 9/10 scheme of work based on the new AQA 1-9 RS GCSE. However, it is split into 2: one for a WEEKLY lesson, and one for a FORTNIGHTLY lesson as we have 3 across the fortnight in Year 9. Weekly lessons deal with component 1, and fortnightly lessons deal with component 2 (themes). I have also produced a term's homework 'menu, as well as PLCs (personal learning checklist using the red/amber/green system) and the first lesson for both component 1 and component 2 are attached. Please do rate and leave feedback :) Many thanks!

This is a lesson for KS3 RE, and it is aimed at trying to encourage independent learning. This is an interactive lessons, in which discussion are had about Jesus' ancestors and where in the world he came from, as well as introducing students to the concept of a 'prophecy' and the prophecies of Jesus' birth. Students then have to read 2 accounts of Jesus' birth from the gospels, and compare and contrast them using a Venn diagram to record their ideas. There is also an evaluation question about whether Christmas has lost it's real meaning. Please rate and leave feedback :) Many thanks.

The Pope and the Catholic Church

(2)
This is a PowerPoint presentation to teach students about the papacy and the process of papal elections. I made this in response to some questions from my year 7's and thought it would tie in nicely with what&'s happening in the Catholic Church at the moment. This would also be useful for Christianity modules and, in particular, when studying Catholicism. Please leave feedback so I can improve my resources. Thank you :)

Abraham's journey - Transition lessons

This is used by my department as a 'transition unit' for new Year 7s. It is centred around the theme of 'journeys', and explores Abraham's journey from Ur to Canaan, and some of the problems he encountered. It encouraged students to think about their own journeys to secondary school, and beyond. Baseline assessment and video questions included.
