Judaism - Moses' Early Life - Lesson!

The learning is guided by a clear and colourful PowerPoint presentation, which guides students through the following step-by-step journey:
-Knowledge recall - gauging children’s prior knowledge of Jewish persecution in Egypt;

"Life in All Its Fullness" (John 10:10) - Collective Worship Session!
This purposeful and original collective worship session aims to breakdown the meanings of the Bible quote: “I have come that they may have life in all its fullness” (John 10:10). The session helps to decipher what Jesus is thought to have meant when he said this, and provide children with strategies and tools to live their own lives to the fullest.
The collective worship session includes the following steps:
-Exploring the quote in full and considering what it means (with help from a useful video, which is hyperlinked into the slideshow);
-Identifying and discussing four key ideas which can help children to live life to the fullest (be thankful, care, explore and grow). Each discussion is enhanced by engaging facts, Bible quotes, and/or videos to ensure that key ideas are secured;
-Looking at their own lives and their school lives and considering opportunities for growth and improvement;
-Ending with reflection, a prayer and a well-linked hymn.
This worship session is tried and tested, and has always been really well received in the past. It is comprehensive, (27 slides in total) and there is enough material for a 30-40 minute session, two 20-minute sessions, or for you to pick and choose the material that you would like to use for your own session. The slides are visually engaging and well-presented, and the subject matter is tailored to the interests and needs of young people.
No further resources are required - everything that you need to present the worship is included.
Hope that you find this useful!
