Reflective.wmv • A Buddhist story helps a Year 2 class understand
how they can be
reflective in Primary RE. • At Wolsey House Primary, Leicester,
pupils look at some of teacher
Michelle Green's calming holiday photos, followed by the story
of ‘Siddartha and the Swan’.
• Michelle uses a box of props to help children understand the
moral and spiritual dimensions of the story and teaches outside, as
it is about finding a reflective space. Using open-ended questions,
the children can reflect and Michelle is careful to demonstrate
that in RE there is rarely one correct answer.
