Miss High x
The above is a timetable that we will be following whilst we’re in this period of isolation. Each session (see times on the left) will begin with a meeting on Microsoft Teams with a guided task for you all to complete. These tasks must be kept either in your work book (which was sent home) or submitted in ’assignments’ on Microsoft Teams. I will direct you to where I would like you to do your work, whether it is in the book or on a worksheet. These will be returned to school.
Please try to attend each session promptly and with some paper/a pen or pencil so that we can get down to working straight away. I understand that technology doesn’t always work as we’d like it to, so in the event that you cannot attend a session or your device isn’t working, I will put all worksheets on Microsoft Teams (under assignments) and also on the website on our class page.
Any queries about this can be put into the ‘Teams’ chat.
Finally, for the days that we have PE (Tuesday) please make sure you’re dressed in appropriate sports clothing as you will have a session to follow.
Take care everyone. These times are very strange I know but remember, we’re all in this together. I’m already looking forward to being back at work with you all!

Lesson 2: L.O: To make links between scripture and how believers live their lives (AT2)
In this unit of work (5F), we have learned about lots of parables and how some of the saints showed that they were like the Good Samaritan by living their lives in God’s image and likeness and doing good things to help other people.
Today, we are going to be looking at AT2 as you will be writing an advice magazine column to advise the believers of God by giving them ways that they should live in the image and likeness of God. You will be using the messages conveyed in the scripture sources from last lesson to inform these judgements and make reference to them in your advice. You will need to provide them with 4 pieces of advice. You could even make links to Saint Josephine Bakhita (our class saint), Saint Maximillian Kolbe and Saint Oscar Romero.
