All resources (including starters) included, including a link to the abridged and original text online. Through debate, comprehension and smaller written tasks, this frameworks a strong written outcome-
great for y5-6. Assessed several times in some 'outstanding' lessons, this was the most successful series of lessons I've made in a long time, and the results were some fantastic written stories at the end!
Using theoretical ideas about free will and determinism, the children get to discuss the big stuff here, applying the free will/determinism concept to their own lives.
A great fun lesson which the upper KS2 kids loved!
Fantastic resource which gives the children a bit of theory before opening the floor to philosophical questions for debate.
A fantastic time filler or, to be fully explored, a full lesson. Enjoy!
Focusing on self-improvement related to PSHE, this lesson was a big hit among the children in year 6. It draws upon a philosophical story called the Devil’s Gambit, relating to addiction, which I’ve adapted into a tale about bad habits.
Note on the resources are in the Powerpoint presentation .
I’ve included a range of subjects to start the day, combining curricular objectives with holistic life skills. I use these regularly with my class and they love it!
