Studies of Religion - Introduction to Genesis: 10 Lesson Plans + 1 Summative Assessment Task (Year 3 to Year 6)

Hey everyone! Get ready to dive into the very beginning of everything! We're about to start an incredible journey through the Book of Genesis in the Bible. Think of it like the first page of a giant, amazing storybook – the storybook of the whole world and God's big plan for it!
Genesis means "beginnings," and that's exactly what we're going to explore. In Genesis, we'll discover answers to some HUGE questions, like:
• How did the world even get here? (Get ready for a mind-blowing creation story!)
• Where did people come from? (We'll meet the very first humans!)
• Why is the world sometimes so amazing and sometimes so… messy? (Hmm, choices and their consequences are a big part of this book!)
• What is God's plan for us? (Spoiler alert: it's pretty awesome!)
Over the next few lessons, we're going to meet some unforgettable characters like Adam and Eve in a beautiful garden, Noah and his incredible Ark, brave Abraham who followed God into the unknown, and amazing Joseph with his colourful coat and even more colourful dreams!
These aren't just old stories – they are packed with excitement, adventure, tough choices, and incredible moments of faith. We'll be using our hands to build, create, act, and explore these stories together. Get ready to ask big questions, use your imagination, and discover amazing truths about God and ourselves in the Book of Genesis! Let's start our adventure! Are you ready to explore the beginnings? Let’s go!

Each Lesson Plan Offers: Cross Curriculum Opportunities, Materials Needed overview, Explicit Teaching content, Hands-On Learning Tasks, Assessment Suggestions, Differentiation Strategies, Outdoor Learning (if applicable) and Extension Tasks. Also included: 1 Summative Assessment Task at the end of the Unit.
