What does the word ‘Celebration’ mean to you? Q. What are some celebrations you have participated in?Students draw on personal experiences to explore and share a chosen celebration Teacher prompts students with questions such as:Q. What is the Celebration?Q. When is it Celebrated? Q. Why is it Celebrated?Q. How is it Celebrated? Q. Who do we Celebrate with? Q. What do we eat/drink/do? 10mins15mins5minsIntroduction To begin the lesson, teacher plays a short youtube clip called ‘It’s my Birthday’ by Helen Oxenbury. After displaying this clip, teacher introduces students to the term ‘Celebration’. Students then take turns providing responses to add to the class brainstorm, which is recorded as a wordle on the smartboard. Teacher asks students to consider the different types of celebrations DevelopmentPrevious to this lesson, students were asked to bring in a photograph of them participating in their favourite celebration. Students will use this photograph as a seed for thinking, as they will create a mind map to present their chosen celebration. Teacher gives students an A3 piece of paper, where they stick their photograph in the middle. If the photograph is portrait, so too will the mind map. Students then draw lines coming from the photograph, where they write as much as they can about their celebration. If students have forgotten their photograph, they must choose a celebration and draw a picture in place of the photo. Conclusion Once all students have completed their mind maps, teacher selects individual students to share their creations with the class. Teacher might like to collect these mind maps and create a display on the classroom wall. Discussing with students during brainstorm, Questioning Observing students working Discussing students work with them as they participate in activity Observing and marking students completed work LESSON 2Students are introduced to the term ‘Symbol’ and draw on prior knowledge through discussion with their peers.

Students are then asked to write a short diary entry in their Religion books of the last supper from the perspective of a disciple. Conclusion To conclude the lesson, teacher will call upon individual students to stand up and read their diary entries to the rest of the class.
