RE Christmas Quiz! (RS, Religious Studies, Religious Education, RE)
godwin86godwin86

RE Christmas Quiz! (RS, Religious Studies, Religious Education, RE)

(2)
A professionally designed Christmas quiz for Religious Studies teachers to use with their students, featuring 60 well-presented questions and an answer sheet. If you like it: leave a 5* rating and email us (godwin86@gmail.com) and we’ll send you a beautiful Christmas Crossword worksheet for free! The quiz also includes a word-search (on screen) and a couple of anagram rounds. Fifty of the questions are Christmas-related and not connected to a specific school-subject: the final ten are subject specific and deal either with GCSE terminology, KS4 exam specification contents, or “fun facts”. Differentiation can easily be achieved by changing quiz group sizes. The quiz is suitable for KS3-5. Completing and peer-marking the 60-question quiz should take the best part of a 1-hour lesson. The resource is fully editable. Copyright Adam Godwin (2018) Not for re-distribution.

5 Resources
This bundle contains a complete series of workbooks made for GCSE Sociology students. It includes the four new workbooks made for each of the four main sections of the course (Family, Education, Crime & Deviance, and Social Stratification) and, as a bonus resource, my very popular Research Methods workbook. The workbooks were designed for the AQA specification and adapted for the WJEC/EDUQAS specification (two versions of each workbook are included in this resource pack). Each of the four main workbooks contains the following: Student Progress-Check Tasks A Personal Learning Checklist Activity 1 - Mind-Map Overview Task Activity 2 - Reading Comprehension Activity 3 - Key-Work Match & Listing Tasks Activity 4 - Online Research Tasks Activity 5 - Reading Comprehension Activity 6 - Bare-bones Essay Planning Task Activity 7 - Creative Tasks (Posters & Poetry) Activity 8 - Investigate & Report (Newspaper Article Task) Activity 9 - Reading Comprehension Activity 10 - Essay-Planning Activity Activity 11- Essay Assessment Extension Tasks (Many!)

The files are in editable Word (.doc) format in-case you wish to make any amendments (e.g. changing the exam questions). The workbooks are not designed to be a comprehensive: they each include selected readings and cover some (not all) of the topics listed in the specification. If you are happy with your purchase and leave a 5* rating for this TES bundle, please email me ( godwin86@gmail.com ) and I will send you a FREE ‘Revision Strategy Battle Planner’ which will be useful for your Year 11 students.

GCSE Sociology - Assessment Pack: 20x Practice Exam Sections, Mark-Schemes & Model 12-Mark Answers! (AQA)

6 Resources
This bundle contains 20 GCSE Sociology assessments in the form of practice exam sections. It is designed for the latest AQA specification. Each of the 20 exam sections is half a full exam and takes 50 minutes for students to complete. Each of the 20 exam sections contain a standard set of questions including two 12-mark rubrics: a model answer for one of them is included for each assessment. Each of the 20 exam sections is accompanied by a mark-scheme. In short, in this bundle you get 20 exam sections, 20 mark-schemes, and 20 model 12-mark answers. This bundle should take care of most (if not all) of your GCSE Sociology assessment needs: students should ideally complete these 20 assessments over the 2-year course; data-collection of results allows for easy progress tracking. You may prefer to use them in the run-up to formal public exams: they are ideal for this also! There are five assessments for each of the four main topics: Crime & Deviance, Education, Family & Social Stratification. BONUS RESOURCES: Assessment Feedback Worksheets x2 (A4) Please note: These are not official exam scripts, I do not work for AQA: I have aimed to make reasonable practice exam-questions based on the specimen material already provided. The papers follow the official AQA format and look like official papers. All items are editable: if you think the 12-mark model-answers are too intimidating, feel free to reduce them. .
