Pupils needing extra support:
Could use the Knowledge organiser to support with definitions; could sort the Activity: Reasons religions spread into three separate categories rather than a three-way Venn diagram; could have the cards for the Activity: Worldwide religion cards pre-cut; could look at the Resource: Religions across the world to see the countries more easily.
