How to Become a Successful TES Author: Step-by-Step Guide
This 5 week unit of work enables the children to explore the idea about trying to transform the world. It explores what a better world would be like while gathering ideas about some of the problems it has.
The following objectives are covered over the 6 weeks:
Make sense of belief:
• Explain connections between biblical texts and the concept of
the kingdom of God
• Consider different possible meanings for the biblical texts
studied, showing awareness of different interpretations
Understand the impact:
• Make clear connections between belief in the kingdom of God
and how Christians put their beliefs into practice
• Show how Christians put their beliefs into practice in
different ways
Make connections:
• Relate the Christian ‘kingdom of God’ model (i.e. loving others,
serving the needy) to issues, problems and opportunities in the
world today
• Articulate their own responses to the idea of the importance
of love and service in the world today.
All resources are listed here and are referenced in the lesson plans. A great unit that provokes some thoughtful and philosophical discussions.
Please note: this unit of work could easily be extended to 6 weeks as there are opportunities for the children to present and share their work with their peers.
A complete student workbook for the death and afterlife unit of the OCR A-level Religious Studies syllabus, Development of Christian Thought unit. It can also be applicable for other exam boards, such as Edexcel and AQA.
The workbook is 17 pages covering beliefs in heaven, hell and purgatory; whether these are spiritual, symbolic or physical places; different beliefs about election (including limited, unlimited and universalism); the importance of Jesus’ resurrection and the teachings of St. Paul; the key questions of the unit - e.g. whether the afterlife is eternal, if purgatory is a state everyone goes through and whether heaven is the perfection and transformation of the whole of creation. This includes a great range of Biblical scripture and parables, and key scholars, e.g. Calvin, Augustine, HIck and Barth - to name a few
There a range of different activities and key questions for discussion. The whole unit can be taught purely form the workbook with enough space for students notes and clear structure for the whole scheme of work.
I usually take approximately ten teaching hours with the use of this booklet for the whole unit.
I hope you find it useful and happy teaching!
These detailed course / revision notes were specially written to give AQA A Level Religious Studies students a comprehensive understanding of all the key knowledge from the specification for Component 2: Study of religion and dialogues - 2B Christianity:
Section A: Christianity
Sources of wisdom and authority
God
Self, death and afterlife
Good conduct and key moral principles
Expressions of religious identity
Christianity, gender and sexuality
Christianity and science
Christianity and the challenge of secularisation
Christianity, migration and religious pluralism
Section B: Dialogues
The dialogue between Christianity and philosophy
The dialogue between Christianity and ethics
These extensive notes are especially useful for students whose note-taking in lesson isn’t as good as others, or whose organisational skills mean they are missing notes/handouts on certain topics / areas. These notes will certainly help reduce the time it takes them to catch up with their peers, and also students like to use these as a checklist of topics to go into in further detail. They give peace of mind that every single corner of the specification/syllabus has been covered in great detail.
Hopefully these notes help to save your students (and you!) some time in the hectic run up to exams. Thanks for taking a look :)
