What if they had a Facebook Profile?
I’ve been working on several schemes of work, it’s surprising how uncreative you become under pressure. One of my escapes has been reading about people having much more exciting times during their holidays on Facebook.
I was working on a R.S. scheme of work and wanted students to produce a summary of their thinking about Lucifer, for some reason I wondered what Lucifer’s Facebook profile would look like. It’s just how I think 
.
I’ve devised this profile outline, I thought it might get students thinking creatively. Students could justify their thinking.

I then thought it could be adapted to non-supernatural entities, how about Old Harry?
I think it might be a nice little starter or plenary activity, alternatively teachers could create one and ask students to justify their decisions.
Do you think this would be useful?

Hi
Likewise I think it is a cracking idea. I plan to get the students to create a facebook profile for the target market for extreme tourism. I cant get hold of the template from here either – please could I get a copy too?
Thanks for the inspiration!
