Activity
Description
The
students have been looking at the Psalms and have been introduced
to the idea of the Psalms as communication with God. So, they
have looked at a range of Psalms and the kind on things that
they would say to God if they had the chance.
They
now have to construct their own Psalm and they are able to
do this through whichever medium they think is most appropriate.
Most of the class choose to compose a song thought some want
to do this via poetry or dance / drama.
The
teacher decides that they will film the finished "shorts"
and these will then be peer assessed using criteria agreed
with the students.
ICT

Learning
Objectives
- To
consider what it would be appropriate to
say to God
- To
develop an appropriate mechanism for doing
this.
Commentary
on the ICT use
The
use of film allows the "action" to be captured and
then for the teacher and the students to be able to show,
pause and allow the participants to explore and explain their
work in a medium much more appropriate to the task then a
writing task. |
