What do teachers say about this resource? (9079, 9325)

Fantastic, really this will save so much work for teachers. There are so many activities here it represents really good value for money and I'm really impressed by it [...] It's very thorough and puts a lot of emphasis on sacred texts which seems to be what the exam boards are after at the moment. The thoroughness of the research that has gone into these resources would take a normal teacher many hours to research and put together. This is realistically over 60 hours worth of work so this is excellent value

What do teachers say about this resource? (8184, 8190)

I really like this resource. It's comprehensive, matched well to the spec and contains a really interesting variety of tasks. I particularly like the games, I think they are really creative and I can see that they would be great in the classroom. It includes a good range of activities and will cater for different learning styles… Activity 3 is FAB! Love that it includes different levels and has an inbuilt extension… Activity 8 is really good. I can see that pupils would really enjoy this… I particularly liked activity 10 in terms of enhancing learning as I feel exemplar answers are really useful in doing this… I think the variety of activities will really engage pupils – and engagement is the first step to learning! I think this resource is spot on in terms of content… It's great!

R Gough, RS Teacher & Peer Reviewer

I like the exam style questions and the broad selection of activities. The layout is good and professional and I like the clear instructions to both teachers and students. The work is pitched at a good level for my grammar school students and is not too 'dumbed down'... very good value for money

E Hodkinson, HoD & Peer Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (8186)

There are some very useful activities here and it would save a teacher quite a considerable amount of time to buy this... There is a good variety of activities, they are not repetitive and could be used with a wide range of pupils with differing abilities... This is a very high quality resource

E Hodkinson, RS Teacher & Peer Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (8185)

A good resource which will save teachers a great deal of time and effort... I like that there is a good selection of activities which would appeal to different abilities and different classes well. I like that there is an activity that looks specifically at exam answers and annotates them and that this is tailored to the AQA spec

E Hodkinson, RS Teacher & Peer Reviewer

A good range of tasks and a lot of content is covered [...] I liked the fact that [the overview] was there to outline what equipment was needed and the length of time it was likely to take. This would make selecting a task for a particular group easy. Some of the tasks (eg task 10) were very creative – I liked them particularly [...] Extension activities give opportunity to develop learning. Differentiation in task 13 is very helpful [...] Gives a general overview of the topics, gives the pupils a chance to engage with the subject matter in a simple and clear way

I like the variety of activities which will support the acquisition and recap of subject knowledge for this topic [and] help pupils to feel confident that they are prepared for the exam. The activities could be used in a variety of ways which adds to the versatility of the resource and helps make it very good value
