A detailed powerpoint on the two sects in Islam General - main differences, distribution, key words Historical - the various groups and people involved, events leading to the divide (e.g. the civil war) , Muhammad's successors Religious - how this has led to them believing and practising different things, festivals This is designed to help RS students answer questions that ask for differences within Islam, as they will understand the difference between Sunni and Shia Muslims. The formatting is quite simple, but there is a lot of information:)

PLEASE NOTE - Due to the new pricing mechanisms of TES, there is very little profit from resources unless they are sold for £3 or more. However, this resource is available for a much reduced price as part of my Religious Studies bundle:) This is a pack of 60 question and answer cards for AQA Religious Studies, Islamic Beliefs and Practices. The front of the card has an exam style question and the back has an exemplar answer (checked by a registered AQA examiner and Religious Studies teacher) split into bullet points to demonstrate the “Simple Point, Development, Scripture X2” format expected from 5 markers, and the “Simple Point, Development X2” format for 4 markers. Scripture is highlighted in yellow to make it easy to learn useful quotes. The cards are also colour coded - Blue for a five mark beliefs question, purple for a four mark beliefs question, red for a five mark practices question, orange for a four mark practices question. Some cards also give three developed points (separated by blank lines) to give students a choice about which they feel the most comfortable using. The cards cover the whole specification for Islam to give students a very good idea of what questions could come up and ideas on how they could answer it. The cards could also be used as a way to revise content in the format it needs to be used for. To print the cards so that the answer is on the back, select double sided printing along the long side of the page. Alternatively, you could print the answers and questions on separate sheets to use as a match up starter activity (this would be great for introducing new topics or as a plenary activity).

This is a detailed study guide to everything needed for the Christian Beliefs section of Religious Studies. It can be used as a revision guide, textbook or homework (or adapted into a power point). Everything is colour-coded so that quotes and titles stand out, and the detailed development of a point is in grey to help differentiate. Each section is split into the belief itself, different views, evidence, evaluation, impact on Christians, importance, quotes and key words (in a table).
