Adaptive teaching
Pupils needing extra support
Should use the Activity: Jesus heals a man when listening to the Presentation: Jesus heals a man to support recall and identification of clues that show Jesus’ connection to God; could use the Knowledge organiser during the Wrapping up to help them match this miracle story with earlier stories that also show someone being special (for example, Guru Nanak and the cobra or Daniel and the lions.
Pupils working at greater depth
Should explain their thoughts by referring to specific parts of the story when taking part in the hotseating activity and make links to earlier stories they have heard in the unit that also include miracles; should say which part of the story is most important in suggesting Jesus was special and why this might be significant to Christians; could use colouring pencils to annotate the Activity: Jesus heals a man with short notes explaining which parts of the story best show that Jesus was special and how these ideas connect to what they have learned about other figures in the unit.
