Hinduism: Brahman and Atman

(0)
This is a lesson on Brahman and Atman. It focusses on the issue of manifestation and the link between the ultimate questions of Hinduism and the challenging concept of Brahman. There is also a extension challenge 'take it further' task attached as well as a lesson plan. This was used for an official observation and was deemed excellent. It is pitched for high ability year 7s but would suit year 8,9 or GCSE (with some tinkering) too. Resources that would go well with this is 'Play Doh' and water with salt (for the analogy). Enjoy!
