In this engaging lesson, students read and interpret ‘The Parable of the Lost Son’ (also known as the Parable of the Prodigal Son).
The learning is guided by a clear and colourful PowerPoint presentation, which guides students through the following step-by-step journey:
-Defining what ‘forgiveness’ means;
-Knowledge recall - remembering key facts about Jesus’ life and teaching;
-Understanding how it can be difficult, but important, to forgive;
-Watching an engaging, age-appropriate video of the parable;
-Demonstrating understanding of the parable through Bloom’s Taxonomy-style activities, including defining, remembering, inferring, sequencing, analysing, applying and creating activities;
-Considering the messages that they can take for their own lives from this parable;
-Self-reflecting on the extent to which they feel they have met the learning objective.
The resource pack includes everything you need to teach the lesson, including the comprehensive PowerPoint presentation and the Bloom’s Taxonomy worksheet (provided in both Word and as a PDF). Just download and teach!
