Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application.
Process	Use mixed-ability pairs for the first application, then require an individual transfer task. Allow oral/visual demonstration where appropriate while retaining the same subject accuracy criteria.
Product	Use a checklist/rubric tied to the concrete output for this week rather than participation alone. For advanced work, require justification with evidence, calculations, source reference or quality criteria.
Success Criteria	The learner uses correct subject terminology and evidence. The learner completes the week’s concrete product/calculation/performance with acceptable accuracy. The learner explains why the procedure/choice fits the stated context rather than giving a memorised general answer.
Homework	Write a short case response on Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application: identify the issue, state one relevant Christian principle and propose a practical action with justification.

Lesson Activities
Stage	Teacher Activity	Learner Activity	Assessment / DoK
Starter10 minutes	Present an unseen case/material set for Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application using Faith-community case profile; do not model the solution. Ask learners to identify the first decision, calculation, language feature or practical step.	Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application, and justify it briefly.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Give fresh data/materials for Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application and require learners to complete the subject-specific task without a worked example.	Map how a Christian community could contribute to education, health, peace, welfare or national development while respecting people of other beliefs. Use the fresh case/materials and show all evidence, workings or process decisions.	Check independent transfer: correct method/technique, use of evidence and completeness of the concrete output.
Activity 220 minutes	Have pairs exchange outputs for Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application; provide a quality-control checklist tied to the actual product/calculation/performance and require evidence-based corrections.	Design a small inclusive service project with goal, beneficiaries, tasks, safeguarding/inclusion consideration and success measure. Then peer-audit another output, identify one precise defect/error and propose a correction.	Score both the original output and the accuracy of the peer correction against the subject checklist.
Activity 310 minutes	Present one deliberately flawed example related to Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application; require each learner to locate the defect and produce the corrected version.	Identify the exact error/weakness in the flawed Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application example, correct it and write one sentence explaining why the correction is valid.	Check that the learner corrects the actual defect rather than merely rewriting the example.

Lesson Closure

Compare the model criteria with the errors found in the unseen Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application task; highlight the one quality check learners should carry into future work. Complete a one-minute exit response using a concrete example from the lesson on Christian communities and nation building — source-based ethical/community application.
