R.E. Topics for the Primary School

by Mary Hayward

Religious Education Topics for the Primary School offers an overall view of religion. It is also a practical handbook for teachers and has been broken down into 3 sections. Topics are drawn from Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism but with the emphasis on Christianity sections in order to meet the usual practice in most primary schools In self-contained spreads; the topics are clearly organised and easy to use as either one-off lessons or as extended projects with plenty of flexibility At a glance, each spread includes AIMS, INFORMATION, APPROACHES and ACTIVITIES, offering a clear purpose and just enough information to introduse  the topic, leading to ideas for pupil-based activities Real help with approaching world religions, especially for teachers who are just making a start Offers many ideas for further development of the topics through suggested resources Written by members of the Chichester Project in consultation with groups of primary teachers throughout the UK
