Description

In this unit pupils will study the centrality of Jesus for most Christians through the story of his birth. Pupils will learn the term incarnation to describe Jesus as God's son. They will see how different Christians portray Jesus through art, and explore how Jesus' birth inspires acts of charity.

An understanding of the person of Jesus is essential to enable pupils to gain a deep knowledge of Christianity. The unit builds on previous learning in EYFS and is sequenced now in order to teachers to make strong links between the fesitval of Christmas and the birth stories of the Bible to introduce the idea of incarnation.
