1. Sources of Wisdom and Authority (Life of Muhammad)
8 – Life of Muhammad (Documentary 2)

2. Documentary part 3 Life of Muhammad 3 (BBC2)
As we watch the video, you make basic notes on what is being said. It is also worth noting down some of the names of the historians/experts as you can use this to do wider reading/research/quotes etc.
Life of Muhammad 3 (BBC2)
Night Journey
Hijrah
Slaughter of the Jews

3. To do over the holidays
Folders up to date and organised (orange post-it).
Catch up with any missed work (Moodle).
Green pen improvements to essays – either underneath the essay or on a separate (labelled) sheet.
Summarise learning so far (mind-maps/posters/flash cards etc) – create a revision bank instead of doing it later on.
Begin to do wider reading/research (library books, internet research, scholars – names from documentary are a good start).
Label work done at home so it is easily distinguished from class work.
