In this engaging and informative lesson, students learn how Christians may interpret the Bible differently. They learn about the meaning of ‘liberal’ and ‘fundamentalist’ Christians, and understand how these two viewpoints influence interpretations of different Bible stories. They learn through:
-Recalling and remembering foundation contextual facts about the Bible;
-Defining the word ‘interpretation’ and understanding that people can interpret the same things differently;
-Learning about the differences in beliefs between fundamentalist Christians and liberal Christians;
-Watching the story of Jesus’ baptism (link included) and establishing how fundamentalist and liberal Christians may interpret different sections of the story;
-Considering how their work on different interpretations may influence the way that they see and behave towards other people with different ideas to themselves.
This resource pack contains a comprehensive and colourful 15-slide Powerpoint, which guides teachers and students through the learning activities. Challenge activities are provided in order to enrich learning for higher-attaining learners. A link to the video is also included (slide 9).
In the past, I have used this lesson with children from across Key Stage 2 - the key learning is aligned with national expectations for RE, and also the content prescribed by most diocese regions.
The resource is also suitable for home learning

The Bible - Big Lesson Bundle!
These engaging and informative lessons provide students with a well-rounded introductory understanding of the Bible. Throughout the sequence of lessons, children understand the structure of the Bible, the content in different sections, and how to find Bible passages through references. Children learn that the Bible can be interpreted from fundamentalist or liberal perspectives. Furthermore, two sections of the Bible are explored in more depth: those relating to the Ten Commandments and the Creation story. The lessons are best taught in the following order: 1. Introduction to the Bible 2. Bible Structure and Referencing 3. Types of Writing in the Bible 4. The Ten Commandments 5. Respect for the Bible 6. Interpretations of the Bible 7. The Creation Story 8. Human Responsibility Each lesson contains a comprehensive and colourful Powerpoint (each of at least 15 slides), which guide teachers and students through the learning activities.

Where appropriate, eye-catching and helpful worksheets and templates (in both Word and PDF) are also included. Within most lessons, children are asked questions and set challenges to develop their own personal spirituality. In the past, I have used these lessons with children from across Key Stage 2 - the key learning is aligned with national expectations for RE, and also the content prescribed by most diocese regions. **The resources are suitable for home learning** however the first couple of lessons work best if children have access to a physical Bible.
