Activity: RE: tell the Easter story as Christians believe it using the brick testament website (illustrations of bible stories in Lego), go to the life of Jesus and read:
- ‘Last supper’
- ‘Jesus is arrested’
- ‘Trial of the century’
- ‘The crucifixion’
- ‘The empty Tomb’
Don’t include ‘the fate of Judas’ as it portrays Judas as he hanged himself in remorse, not suitable for this age group - just explain that he regretted betraying Jesus.
Follow up work on this tomorrow.
RE not covered every week hence a longer focus on it this week.
