This large lesson covers both Eids. There are also exam questions included. For Id-ul-Adha I have included some links to environmental ethics, you may not wish to show some of these images to you class or go down that road, but I found my year 10s really got into a debate about whether it was necessary to sacrifice that many animals today.

This is a longer lesson on Islam, it serves as an introductory outlining the history and cultural setting before moving on to look at Sunni and Shi’a Islam. There are a few embedded videos to make things more interesting and the final activity can be adapted to make it more creative or dynamic (carousel) as the info sheet is included.

This lesson covers the nature of God in Islam, it looks at the nature of God as ‘one’ , and explores why there are no images of God. There are a number of questions and activities included in the power point.

This fascinating topic not for the feint hearted can be a joy to teach, but it really requires you to have your head around it. Hopefully this powerpoint will help! There is a paradox right at the centre and that is the point - the ultimate response is to say God is entirely other and we can’t know. For Muslims, two ways of understanding can be seen, Emphasising Allah’s immanence - Allah knows you so well he knows what you will do. Emphasising Allah’s transcendence - Allah is outside time and space so knows the future as we know the past.

Whole lesson with questions. Looks at what heaven and hell are like within Islam and how you get there!

I’ve set this up as a carousel lesson, it’s designed to be taught in one big double lesson but you could break it up. There is a worksheet pack and some source material, I also used text books to help them but they could use the internet instead. It covers the prophets named on the AQA Spec.

A much bigger topic in the spec, this longer lesson spends time looking at all the different attributes of Islamic prayer. It includes exam questions.

This lesson covers Ashura from Shi’a Islam, an interesting and evocative topic, great for class discussion. There are also exam style questions in the power point.

I’ve set this up so it can be done as a carousel type activity. Included is a scaffolded worksheet for note taking. There are are questions in the powerpoint and a 12 mark question at the end. It looks at the roles of angels including Mika’il and Jibril. It follows the AQA textbook.

This Lesson covers the AQA spec, it looks at Ramadan in detail, there are also a few embedded videos. Exam questions included.

One of the most misunderstood concepts in Islam. This lesson follows the AQA textbook. The emphasis of the lesson is more on greater jihad and it opens itself up nicely for lots of discussion. there are exam questions at the end.

Irenaeus's theodicy also includes John Hick. Presentation simple but with lots of info.

This is a game I've created for my year 11's. They've been struggling with keywords so this is a fun activity that can be played multiple times with them. There are differing levels of rules so can allow for differentiation as well. The cards have been created so that you can print them double sided and the tiles will match up (or print and photocopy 1sided - 2 sided and it should work) I recommend laminating and printing each set of different colour paper. There are about 30 words in total. The rules in short are, Spread the cards out across your table with the keyword facing up Each player takes it in turn to select a card and guess the definition of the word. If the player guesses correctly with the reverse of the card they keep the card and add it to their pile. If they are incorrect the leave the card to the table and put back 3 cards from their hand. Winner is the person with the most cards at the end of the game. Also available as bundle Also available Christianity Islam Themes A - F Please review! Thanks

This lesson is extracted from the pages on the development of Christian thought, with reference to wealth and poverty and prosperity gospel. It basically follows the text book, hopefully saves you sometime!

This lesson looks at the 99 names of God, as well as exploring the ideas of God’s immanence and transcendence. There’s a number of activities to choose between, I used the debate one as a table debate and had them circulating and writing on the table with the whiteboard pens!
