Year 10 are currently preparing for the RE module exams (OCR Philosophy and Ethics GCSE). I’ve decided to use this page as an additional place where you can get hold of the RE:vision powerpoints, question lists and games. Remember that you need to be thoroughly prepared for the exam to get the higher grades. There are suggestions at the end of each powerpoint about how to revise.
EXAM 1: ETHICS 2 – Tuesday 15th May
Section A: Religion, Peace and Justice powerpoint
Section A: Religion, Peace and Justice games (based on information from the powerpoint)
Section B: Equality and Prejudice powerpoint

List of questions from the last 3 years of exams. In addition to the work we are doing in lessons, it would be good to try to plan and write some answers to these and bring them in for me to mark.

This week’s form time activities are adapted from the excellent and award winning ‘Ghost Street’
Using a set of missing word headlines students explore some key road safety facts and figures. I did it as a paired activity with students writing their words onto the class whiteboard.
The powerpoint can be downloaded here. For more information about the Ghost Street project follow this link.

Here are some resources for stimulating discussions and active learning in form time. The first one looks at the Costa Concordia disaster and looks at the rights and wrongs of ‘women and children first’. The second uses the new silent film ‘The Artist’ as a way into discussions and games about non-verbal communication.

Year 9 are currently looking at the world after the First World War. As part of that we have defined democracy and dictatorship. In this lesson, we will look at communism and whether it was a good idea.

In today’s lesson we are looking at the oranisation of the League of Nations. In particular, I want you to consider examples of strengths and weaknesses in the League and consider how well it was organised. To start off with you need to make a Venn Diagram on Microsoft Publisher:
A Venn Diagram has two interlocking circles. One circle will be for strengths, and one will be for weaknesses. Where they overlap you could put examples that are both strengths and weaknesses. Once you have made the outline you need to copy and paste examples from pages 1 to 3 of this reading. Make sure the text makes sense on its own, you may need to change it slightly. Only go as far as the structure, we are not yet considering membership problems.
Once you have done that you should complete this online progress check. This is designed to make sure you have idenitfied some of the key examples and also to encourage you to write a 6 mark exam style question.
Finally you could watch this short video to recap your learning.
