With our materials, Church workers and parents can confidently offer to explain Christianity in Primary Schools; Christmas, Easter and well known stories from the Bible. We aim to comply with the National Curriculum and the Religious Education syllabus for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
During this lesson we aim to teach students that the New Testament contains stories about the life of Jesus and stories Jesus told, such as the Good Samaritan. We reflect on what the story teaches us: that we must love other people no matter who they are.
This 20 minute lesson aims to teach pupils that some stories are special to religious groups. It explains that at Easter Christians celebrate Jesus' new life.
During this 30 minute lesson pupils talk about signs of ‘new life’ in the world around them in spring, and talk about new beginnings. Children are told about Jesus' death and resurrection, to emphasise the idea that he is special for Christians.
