Pope John Paul II Award Resources 2011/2012
FAITH IN ACTION
This educational resource has been designed for use on interactive whiteboards. Each unit contains supplementary notes for teachers, packed full of background information and group activity ideas.
The ‘Faith in Action’ resource contains four weeks of engaging lesson material for the Pope John Paul II Award. Students are then encouraged to spend another four weeks carrying out action projects within their communities. (The resource can be adapted to fit a longer or shorter timeframe.)
