KS3 RS - The Bible
A lesson aimed at KS3 (Year 7 & Year 8) - I use this lesson after a series of learning on the ‘Life of Jesus’. This lesson then explains the significance of the Bible in Christianity and the world today. It is a detailed discussion based lesson with a supporting worksheet with tasks around the idea of the Bible as a library. The lesson also explores the links with the Torah and the differences between the Old and new Testament. Activities also include, a Divergent thinking starter, worksheet with colouring & questions, Purple Pen style check & improvement, True and false (Whiteboard or Book) and reflection questions at the end. With some tweaks could easily be two lessons if required.
