As children explore the origins of various religions, they discover geographical and historical connections among them. They investigate Sikh and Bahá’í beliefs and practices, reflecting unity and equality, and plan a promotional video, poster or slide show for World Religion Day.
Building on enquiry about the place of scripture in Year 3, children look at different ways scriptures are used and what this shows about the value placed on them. They experience how the Guru Granth Sahib is treated like royalty and analyse information collaboratively.
