Religion and Life Foundation Edition Summary

Religion and Life Foundation Edition by Victor Watton

Written by an experienced examiner, this fifth edition of this foundation edition of the bestselling Religion and Life textbook has been fully revised to meet the requirements of the new Edexcel GCSE RS specification for 2009. This foundation edition is a simplified version of the mainstream edition, but with the same pagination and illustrations so that it can be used alongside the mainstream edition with mixed-ability groups. Like the mainstream edition, this new foundation edition integrates the requirements of the new GCSE into the familiar and proven format of the previous edition of Religion and Life, with: * exam-specific advice, questions and model answers * a clear, accessible structure to guide students through the course * student-focused features to aid learning such as key terms and summary boxes * up-to-date photos and examples. This fifth edition is accompanied by new editions of the Religion and Life mainstream edition, Teacher's Resource Pack, Revision Guide and fully-featured Dynamic Learning CD-ROM.
