Here you will find a selection of featured resources that may be useful in the delivery of blended learning. These resources can also be found on the Home Learning Site under the Learning Tab.
General
- The World Community of Christian Meditation (WCCM) website contains a video and simple instructions to assist parents in understanding the Christian Meditation prayer form and the requirements of Stillness, Silence and Simplicity. The content is given by Fr Laurence Freeman, the world director of Christian Meditation.
- This infographic has been designed to assist and remind students of all ages of the simple steps involved in Christian Meditation.
- This is Primrose, a student from St Mary’s Primary Bellingen, explaining Christian Meditation to her mum in the first weeks of blended learning. Her teachers are very proud of her!
- Create a beautiful craft project for your family or classroom which you can hang up at the beginning of Easter and leave up all the way until Pentecost. The fourteen stations of Light are made from sun rays and have a quote about Easter from Saint JPII on the base of the sun. Each of the rays also has a corresponding Scripture verse, so your family or class can look up that story as you talk about each station during the Easter Season.
Primary
ES1/St 1
- What colours make you feel happy? Make your own Resurrection picture or colour this one with those happy colours.
Stage 2
- What do you see in this image? How do the colours tell you about the Story of the Resurrection? Make your own image and share it with someone.
Stage 3
- For hundreds of years, the story of Easter has been celebrated in art. Take a tour of the National Gallery of London and create your own masterpiece.
- Students write imaginary interviews with eyewitnesses.
Secondary
- Adoration of the Eucharist is a prayer form that imitates Mary the Mother of Jesus, Mary Magdalene and John, the Beloved Disciple, standing at the foot of the cross on Good Friday. Adoring Jesus present in the Eucharist is a highlight for most students who attend the Proclaim Lismore Student Discipleship Events; Shine, Ignite and Lead. The atmosphere of the room always changes and it is undeniable that something divine is present among the students. This Easter Season students are invited to join a community of online prayer, with a live stream from the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
