Previous KnowledgeLearners recall the immediately preceding knowledge/skill needed to engage with Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices; the starter diagnoses this rather than assuming mastery.
Lesson Objective(s)Identify or explain the key subject idea/procedure in Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices. Complete the concrete guided/practical task for Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices accurately. Apply Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices independently to a new case, data set, text, material or performance situation.
Essential Question(s)What evidence or procedure is needed to work accurately with Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices? What would a strong practical/application response to Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices look like? How would changing the context, data or constraints affect a decision about Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices?
Pedagogical StrategiesDiagnostic questioning Experiential/problem-based learning Collaborative analysis Guided modelling Independent application Peer/self assessment
Teaching & Learning ResourcesSelected Bible references Age-appropriate ethical scenario cards Decision framework Support-resource list
Key Notes on Differentiation
ContentProvide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices.
ProcessUse 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.
ProductUse 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 CriteriaThe 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.
HomeworkWrite a short case response on Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices: identify the issue, state one relevant Christian principle and propose a practical action with justification.

Activity 220 minutesLearners apply Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices to a realistic ethical, historical, community or development case and support their reasoning with relevant Christian principles.Apply a decision framework—dignity, responsibility, consent/safety, consequences, faith principle and support—to propose a respectful response.Assess reasoning, relevance of the faith principle, awareness of consequences and respect for diversity.
Activity 310 minutesEach learner gives an individual reasoned response to a new case or source question on Dignity, consent, fidelity and consequences of sexual choices.Write a confidential-style advice response to a fictional peer that encourages responsible choices and seeking trusted adult/professional support where needed.Check whether the response applies rather than merely repeats a belief statement.
