Who is a Christian and what do they believe?

This unit enables pupils to begin to understand what Christians believe about God and about Jesus as the Son of God. This unit looks at stories about Jesus and stories that Jesus told. The planning gives opportunity for good links with the English curriculum. Teaching in this unit will help pupils to understand that Christians see God as Father and Creator and Jesus as the Son of God and an inspiration to Christian people. This unit also allow pupils to study prayer and in particular the Lord’s prayer.

We know that planning schemes of work is a laborious and time-consuming job for busy teachers, which is why we have created ready-to-use schemes made up of 31 units for Primary. Units provide 10+ fully planned lessons, and include lots of teaching and learning ideas, links to useful resources, learning outcomes and assessment guidance and suggestions.

Each unit offers on average eight hours of classroom ideas. The units offer a resource to support you in teaching RE wherever you are in the country, even if your syllabus is not an RE Today model.

Our Schemes of Work are a resource offering a range of ideas for your classroom. They do not supersede your agreed syllabus. Check out our FREE handy guide to planning with RE Today units of work to support you in deciding whether these schemes will work for you and your school at http://www.retoday.org.uk/school-support/schemes-of-work/ See page 28 on our interactive digital catalogue for the full list of units, and the option to buy individual units.
