A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Give learners page 1 and keep the suggested answers on page 2. Preview carol, manger and nativity and explain that each bank item is used once.

  1. Use story clues for Bethlehem, shepherd and wise men, and distinguish the building church from the meeting service.
  2. Compare prayer, worship, faith and peace carefully: broad sentences can allow more than one sensible allocation, even though each bank item is used once.
  3. Choose one of the three discussion prompts about a quiet celebration, community traditions or seasonal songs.

Support and extension

Allow justified alternatives in the broad religious-value sentences. Learners may discuss an observed tradition rather than their own faith.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
