More GCSE notes

GCSE Revision Notes

They are a bit scrappy, but here they are at last ... the hard copy of some of the notes we've been making in class over the past couple of weeks.

Parable of the Sheep and the Goats

DivShare File - Parable presentation (parable_sheep_goats.mov)

I'm not sure if this is going to work ... it should be a short movie clip of the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats. Essential knowledge for all GCSE students!

(I've put in the link ... the embed function doesn't seem to work properly.)

Forgiveness

Task:

Click on The Forgiveness Project website. Go to stories, and read through some of the stories of reconciliation and conflict resolution.

In your book, summarise three of the stories you think are most interesting. You could copy out the key quotes into your book.

Then post a comment on this blog saying which story you find most inspirational, motivating or hopeful, and why. Leave your first name or your initials so I can see who has completed the task.

Martin Luther King

My Year 11 class has been set homework based on the life, beliefs and actions of Martin Luther King.

This homework is to be a substantial piece of writing, for example an obituary, a mindmap, a factfile, a eulogy, a speech, a letter, a newspaper report, a powerpoint, or perhaps something else that you can think of. (Check with me that it's okay.) I have looked up some relevant websites.

Remember, websites can be biased and may contain inaccuracies. It's always good to double check your facts!

Welcome to your blog!

I hope to post links here to useful sites, or point you in the direction of topical issues of Religious or Ethical interest, or post reflections on the topics we are covering in school ... I may even post your homework here with hints to help you!
