Ahimsa, Karma & Dharma (Ghandi Case Study) - KS2 RE

This is a complete lesson for lower KS2 pupils who are studying Hinduism in RE and have already had a basic introduction to the concepts of Ahimsa, Karma and Dharma. There is a starter intended to ‘hook’ the children in by getting them to ask the questions - these questions could then be used in an alternative plenary in which pupils can answer their original questions.
The reading activity could be completed in groups of four (one card each) or pairs (two cards each). There are comprehension questions at the bottom for the pupils to ask each there peers after reading each section.
Finally, the main written activity is differentiated three ways to allow children to apply their new understanding of Ghandi and his beliefs.
