How do you teach the concept of "Holiness" or "Sacrifice" to primary students? Transform your Year 3 to Year 6 Studies of Religion lessons with this complete, hands-on unit that nurtures understanding through the book of Leviticus!

Step into the world of "Living God's Way", a comprehensive Religious Education unit designed to save you time and deepen your students' faith. This unit focuses on the biblical teaching of Leviticus, blending the history of "Ancient Israelite Worship" with the spiritual wisdom of "Holiness and Community", while connecting to essential lessons about gratitude and forgiveness.

Packed with "holiness collages," "community rule books" and "festival planning", this unit will transform your classroom into a thoughtful community where students don't just learn about rules, they understand the heart behind them as Respectful Citizens, Faithful Worshippers and Grateful Friends.

What's Inside?

This comprehensive unit is meticulously planned to introduce the key themes of Leviticus with age-appropriate engagement. You will find:

• 10 Engaging Lesson Plans: Guide your students through the laws and festivals of Leviticus. From understanding 'God's Specialness (Holiness)' and the purpose of 'Offerings', to learning about 'Clean and Unclean' (living well), the 'Day of Atonement' and joyful festivals like the 'Feast of Tabernacles'.
• Curriculum Aligned: This unit supports key learning objectives for Years 3-6. It covers Ethical Understanding (right and wrong), Personal and Social Capability (community roles and responsibility) and Intercultural Understanding.
• Play-Based & Experiential Learning: Foster genuine understanding with interactive activities. Imagine your students creating a 'Holiness Collage', writing their own 'Classroom Rule Book', role-playing 'Peace Offerings', building 'Model Tabernacles' and designing 'Festival Posters'.
• Built-in Assessment & Differentiation: Effortlessly monitor student progress. Use the provided strategies to support learners with visual aids for abstract concepts or challenge them to research ancient customs. The unit includes formative tasks like the 'Offerings Matching Game' and summative tasks like the 'My Leviticus Learning Booklet'.
• Spiritual Development: Help students connect ancient laws to their daily behaviour. Activities encourage them to identify how rules keep us safe and happy, how saying sorry restores relationships and how we can show gratitude to God.

Summative Assessment Task:

Conclude the unit with the "My Leviticus Learning Booklet." In this reflective assessment, students choose three of their favourite lessons to showcase. They include drawings, written explanations of what they learned and a reflection on their favourite activity, demonstrating their grasp of concepts like Holiness, Forgiveness and Celebration.
