Resources for Religious Education in Nottingham City and County SACRE / RE Today 2009 1 Resources for RE NOTTINGHAM CITY AND COUNTY STANDING ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR RELIGIOUS EDUCATION RESOURCE DIRECTORY (updated 2009) The resource directory has been compiled to assist teachers in finding resources that may be helpful and informative. Thanks to all those who have contributed to the collection over the years. It is up to date in 2009. It is impossible for it to be fully comprehensive, but many good resources are held in the RE Centre at Bluecoat, and available for use in city and county. Inclusion in the directory does not imply a recommendation for the resource: here you will find what there is, and teachers are encouraged to make their own judgements about how they will use the resources. Funds for RE are often hard to come by. The syllabus writers suggest that your school should allocate £200 + £2 per pupil in your school to resource the new syllabus. A school of 50 would thus allocate £300, a school of 1000 would allocate £2200. The codes ‘T’ for teacher and ‘G’ for general indicate that the resources are for professional readers rather than, or as well as, classroom use. Suitability levels are indicated: 0 = Foundation Stage Key Stages = 1 to 4 5 = 16 19 years

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Teachers are encouraged to submit new and alternative sources to SACRE for the updating of this list and to observe the public broadcastersrsquo continuing updating of resources and production of new resources Websites for Religious Education The Agreed Syllabus recommends the internet for school RE because it offers so much authentic and contemporary religious material and much that is tailored to RE As with any resource it is important that teachers evaluate the suitability and usefulness of the resource before recommending it to pupils and because the internet changes continuously with many sites being temporary and evolving fast teachers are advised to become familiar with the Gateway sites for RE which will

a) evaluate sites b) update links c) add new sites

For this reason the list of web sites is not extensive

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Meditation activity This activity helps to still children It enables them to disconnect from the clutter in their minds to focus on their thoughts and feelings The subject can be used in RE to open up deeper thinking or to visualise a certain part of a story It can be used in other subjects such as Literacy Here it can be used to quieten and focus children at the start of their time in a place of worship or lsquotransportrsquo them back to the visit in readiness for follow-up work Children need to feel comfortable with closing their eyes and sitting still Read the following script or feel to adapt it We are going to sit quietly with our eyes closed for a short while listening to me When we open them again it will help us to think really hard and come up with some good ideas Make sure you are sitting up straight with your feet on the floor and your hands in front of you with nothing in them When Irsquom talking your eyes will be closed the whole time and you mustnrsquot say anything until wersquove finished Letrsquos close our eyes and listen carefully First of all think about the nearest sound you can hear Think about the furthest sound you can hear Feel the soft touch of your clothes brushing on your skin Now think about your breathing Breathe normally as I count your breathing in and out (Count for approximately 30 seconds) Now imagine that your floating up to the ceiling and your looking down on the classroom (Describe some of the things they might see and the shapes they might make) Now by magic we can float through the roof and we are looking down on our school (Describe briefly as before) we are getting higher and higher and the cars roads and houses are getting smaller and smaller- just like being in a plane We carry on further up and up You can make out our village the church and the forest Now you can see Mansfield Cars are fast becoming tiny dots We can see the sea and eventually the whole world We are floating in space (At this point you can gradually lsquolandrsquo somewhere which could be described or questions asked to prompt a visualisation) Alternatively float back to Earth describing each stage Finish with Now try and remember the classroom before you closed you eyes When you are ready open them Give a few seconds for adjustment and then focus children on activity immediately

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )

Activities with Artefacts in RE Whv use artefacts Religious artefacts bring colour life and realism to RE Pupils can see and handle at first hand objects of importance to people in practising their religion They can

Stimulate genuine curiosity

Add authenticity

Provide a display

Illustrate symbolic use of objects in religion

Foster reverence and respect

Handle with care Religious objects in the classroom are used for education not devotion however they should be treated with respect and care In this regard teachers actions speak louder than words in demonstrating these attitudes These tips might be useful

Imagine a member of the faith community concerned is present Know your facts and background information (especially the religious

significance of the object how to handle it and why)

Always relate the object to the childs own experience Investigate give pupils lots of opportunities for questions and observations feely

bags are useful for this purpose Limit the number of artefacts used at one time to allow for maximum use of suspense

and questioning

Choose articles that will lead to reflection in depth

Relate the article to pictures or stories where it is in use to give the children some idea of

context

Be clear what learning outcome you intend

Store and display the artefacts carefully replacing any which become so damaged

that a community would not use them

Sacred or Secular

The artefacts we use in RE need not solely be religious objects Much creative work can be done in RE lessons by using everyday items imaginatively as a means to provoke children to share their own ideas experiences and questions

Religious articles can also be used in combination with other objects to stimulate discussion about what makes things special how the items might relate to each other what stories might be told about each which item might be the odd one out depending on how one is sorting

Be Creative

What role might these elements play in creative RE learning Exploring Play with the objects Handle and examine use feely bags blindfolds

description games mystery boxes Questioning How many questions can you ask about the objects Can you find any

answers for yourself Reflecting On reasons why objects are special or significant to themselves and others in

different situations Responding Do something active to express and develop your thoughts and questions

about these objects and the issues they have provoked (eg design a questions and answers sheet create a story about it make a container to hold it )
