Designed specifically for Year 3 and 4
Great Open Door offer one hour Bible-based English lessons for Year 3 and 4 classes. The programme is designed to run throughout the academic year, delivering one lesson a term to each class. Each lesson focuses on objectives taken from the current National Curriculum for English for the relevant year group and may also link into the school’s R.E. scheme of work.
“The children continued to grow in their development of language through the story.”
Each lesson is based on a Bible story, taken from the child-friendly Lion First Bible. The lessons are very interactive and aim to cater for all learners, combining reading the text with drama, games and, in some of the lessons, puppets. The children’s understanding of the text is confirmed throughout the lesson through use of questioning and the children complete activities related to the English skill being taught.
