Assembly on Ramadan.

Here is a lesson I used in an observation which I got outstanding in. Let me know what you think.

A presentation including basic theory of Buddhism, its main ideas and philosophy (reincarnation, meditation, Karma, Cycle of life).

The latest of my slide-shows which asks 'What is Religion? using beautiful images, inspiring quotations, thought provoking text and interactive activities. The slides are timed to progress and some animation is used but the activities progress with a mouse-click and can be timed to suit. This resource is great to stimulate thought about religion in its widest aspect or to set the scene for any new Scheme of Work. It takes viewers through two models of religion - the jigsaw and the garden and introduces the great Eternal Questions, exploring identity - body, vital, heart, mind and soul. comments and feedback welcome.
