Description
This book is based on the teachings of Jesus and connects with modern-day citizenship. The material is aimed at KS2 pupils (7-11 year olds) for use in schools, but it is also ideal for use in Sunday schools and other church-based groups. All of the charities featured in the book are open to and actively caring for those in need - regardless of race or religion. Each chapter includes: suggested PSHE and Citizenship links; Bible link with key passages in full; learning-from-the-Bible activities; stories about what others have done; charity links, with contact details and stories from the charity's work; reflection and discussion; and, practical links to help children actively be involved in caring for others. A full list of the charities featured appears on the front cover of the book.
