In this engaging and informative lesson, students learn about the different types of writing in the Bible, consider how these different writing forms get across key messages, and apply this knowledge in creating their own thoughtful texts. They learn through:
-Recalling and remembering how to reference different sections of the Bible;
-Acting as ‘Bible Detectives’, follwing references in order to find different styles of writing;
-Analysing how different styles of writing add to meanings/ messages;
-Considering important messages and lessons that they have been given in their own lives, and applying knowledge of different writing styles to contribute to a ‘Class Bible’;
-Evaluating their ‘Class Bible’ through thought-provoking reflection questions;
This resource pack contains a comprehensive and colourful 17-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 part of the lesson includes using Bibles, so you will need enough for at least one per group in your class.
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. All images are licensed for commercial use, and are cited on the final slide.

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. Challenge activities are provided in order to enrich learning for higher-attaining learners. 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. All images are licensed for commercial use, and are cited on the final slide.
