Live Simply

If you have looked at the CAFOD site, you might have seen the Live Simply promises being mentioned. Have a look at the Live Simply webpage to find out more ... Is there a promise there that you could keep during Lent?

More Fairtrade Fortnight resources

You can find out more about Fairtrade Fortnight at the CAFOD website. Year 9s can use this to help with your homework over the next two weeks; GCSE students will find info on here to help with Unit C5, Religion: Wealth and Poverty. There is even a student-friendly page that I have just found, as part of the Big Deal site.

Fairtrade Fortnight

Fairtrade Fortnight starts tomorrow ... what can you do to help? Well, for a start you can buy Fairtrade bananas, coffee, tea, chocolate, hot chocolate ... Most, if not all, major supermarkets stock a variety of Fairtrade Products. If you can't find what you are looking for, why not ask? You can also fill in a card at most stores saying how they can improve - why not ask for more fairly traded products?

Hangman

There are less than fifty teaching days until the exams start, if I remember correctly. And you need to know your key words ... GCSE Bitesize has a hangman game to help you practice these keywords. They do cover many different aspects of Religious Studies, including religions other than Christianity, and Philosophy, and won't necessarily have the words you need to know for those 2 mark questions. But they are useful, and it's another way to revise.

CAFOD Big Deal Homework Help

Another great site that will help you in loads of ways, with RE, Geography, Citizenship ... Click on the Big Deal Homework Help link and find out about CAFOD, Debt, HIV and AIDS, Trade, Fairtrade Fortnight, Conflict, Aid, Emergencies, the Environment ...

That Religious Studies Website

I've found another useful website. That Religious Studies Website has lots of articles on different topics that may be relevant to GCSE students and A Level students.

GCSE Podcasts

I'm all for new technology, and I know that many of you have iPods or mp3 players, so you may find the resources at GCSE Podcast helpful. I found a couple of podcasts on euthanasia (free) and abortion (£1.50). These sound very useful for revision purposes. Check them out!
