In this engaging lesson, students are introduced to the Buddha and the key concepts of Buddhism. They learn about how the Buddha proposed that people should live their lives and consider the different spokes on the ‘Eightfold Path’ wheel.
The learning is guided by a clear and colourful PowerPoint presentation, which guides students through the following step-by-step journey:
-Recalling their prior learning about how Christians live;
-Reflecting upon an image of the Buddha, and thinking about what the different features in the image show people about how to live;
-Learn key facts about the Buddha and how he suggested that people should live their lives, including following the ‘Eightfold Path.’
-Considering how they could apply some of the principles of the Eightfold Path to their own lives.
-Comparing and contrasting some of the key teachings of Christianity and Buddhism;
-Self-reflecting on the extent to which they feel they have met the learning objectives.
This resource pack includes the comprehensive PowerPoint presentation (16 slides) and the worksheet needed for the Eightfold Path task (in both Word and PDF). There is everything that you need here to teach the lesson.
