This resource was designed with the new Worldviews curriculum in mind. The bundle traces some key events in the life of Jesus. This opening resource supports students to think about Jesus from different perspectives, who he is to Historians? Who he is to Christians? Why he is considered a saviour? What was his life like - what was the context at the time. There is also a comprehension worksheet to complete for homework that goes into more depth. This is a KS3 resource, year 7s-9. I have added in an extra short resource if you wish to expand it further to consider Jesus as Messiah could be looked at in more depth. You could also consider discussing the Parables, Holy week, Life after death etc if you want to spread it out for a term. Otherwise this resource set can be completed in a half term if done efficiently. I personally try to cover a lot in KS3 and move through topics quite swiftly but there is also benefits to stretching this material out, to use the HW sheets as in class materials and then offer shorter homework tasks from textbooks etc. All resources should be supplemented with effective questioning to reap the best results! ‘Tell me more about that?’ ‘Does anyone disagree?’ ‘Why might Jesus have done this?’ etc.
