This unit addresses the topic of marriage in a way that is appropriate for Key Stage 2 pupils.

Non-religious commitment is also discussed and addressed. The individual circumstances of anyone in your class for whom this is a sensitive topic should be considered and discussed with their carers if appropriate. You will need to source video clips of Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh marriage ceremonies to enhance the teaching of the lessons.

Taken from our PSHE KS1 Resource file. Lesson 1: Making choices Lesson 2: Dilemmas Lesson 3: Choosing a friend Lesson 4: How to play Lesson 5: Playing safe Lesson 6: Managing money Lesson 7: Money and talents Lesson 8: Looking at job choices In this unit of work the children will be taught to understand that we all have a right to our own opinion, which we express in the choices we make. Discussions throughout the unit will also help children to understand that their choices have different consequences, not only for themselves, but for other people around them. Even at an early age, there are real choices for children to make, for example, choosing healthy options at school meal-times and deciding what games to play. The lessons will also begin to cover and allow opportunities for discussion concerning how to use money wisely and how to explore related issues such as fairness; whilst encouraging the children to think about different career choices for the future.

It can often be very difficult to teach inference to less able readers because they cannot access challenging texts. Texts that support the teaching of ‘reading between the lines’, or inference and deduction. The use of photographs as a first approach in this resource means all children can develop these important comprehension skills. This resource contains 3 units of work. Each unit contains: Text 1 provides a story or explanation about the photograph that uses inference to give information (there are hints, but the author doesn’t explicitly say what is happening);Text 2 is an alternative text which makes the story really obvious. There is little or no inference and the simplicity of the text provides a good comparison with Text 1. The texts are written to support the teaching of inference and deduction and will probably need to be read to the children. The point of the exercise is not for the children to decode the texts but to understand and answer questions about it. Leave a review

Includes: Introduction Unit resources Medium-term plan Lesson 1: Belonging to a group Lesson 2: Confirmation and believer’s baptism Lesson 3: Bar Mitzvah Lesson 4: Amrit ceremony Lesson 5: Taking responsibility Lesson 6: Initiation ceremonies About this unit This unit is intended to explore becoming an adult and discuss the themes that are addressed by different religious initiation ceremonies and their effect on people’s lives. Not all religions have specific ceremonies welcoming members into adulthood but Christianity, Judaism, Sikhism and Hinduism do. In this unit we will look at three religions: Christianity, Judaism and Sikhism, together with a non-religious view: humanism. This unit allows pupils to consider the commitment involved in deciding to become a full member of a religious community. Prior learning: This unit will build on the work completed in Year 3 on birth ceremonies. Lesson length: The lessons are designed to last approximately 60–70 minutes.

Includes Introduction Unit resources Medium-term plan Lesson 1: Why are there wars? Lesson 2: Why is there suffering? Lesson 3 & 4: Responses to suffering Lesson 5: Christmas Day truce Taken from our Lower Keystage 2 R.E Resource file This unit grapples with an issue of universal debate both within and between religions. In recent years, religious fanaticism has been regarded as a major contribution to war and suffering around the world. In truth, religious zeal has always been a factor in conflict on a local, national and international scale. By starting with playground problems and other contexts in which pupils’ arguments may get physical, the unit explores the problem of what is meant by a ‘justifiable’ war, looks at both religious and non-religious responses to war and suffering through the work of charities, and ends with a look at how individuals can make peace, even when whole countries are fighting each other. The length of the unit means that this is not intended to be an in-depth study, so you should see each lesson as an opportunity for pupils to develop questions, rather than be given all the answers. It will be important to address any topical issues or current events that may occur while you are teaching this unit to make the subject an uncomfortable reality for your class. Leave a review

Includes: Introduction Unit resources Medium-term plan Lesson 1: Doing the right thing Lesson 2: Making choices Lesson 3: A good influence Lesson 4: Wrong choices Lesson 5: David and Goliath Lesson 6: Inner strength Lesson 7: It’s up to you This unit is intended as an introduction to thinking about ultimate truths in Key Stage 2. By beginning with ‘golden rules’, found represented in all major faiths, pupils then explore how their sense of right and wrong can change with circumstances. By using stories from different faiths and by studying the actions of believers who chose what they believed to be right over wrong when that was a hard choice for them to make, pupils are introduced to the concept of faith and behaviour being inextricably linked. The issue of ‘right and wrong’ will be discussed almost daily throughout a school child’s life! For this age group, right and wrong tends to be very cut-and-dried. These lessons are not intended to introduce the issue of ‘grey areas’ or ‘relative truth’ as children at this age have neither the spiritual, mental, moral or ethical maturity to address these issues appropriately in a classroom context.
