Explore the story of Feeding the 5,000 as you play and learn together.
Use these resources to:
- Look at miracles within the RME curriculum. As the children explore the account of Jesus miraculously feeding over 5000 people with only 5 loaves and 2 fish we can talk about the miracles of Jesus. What is a miracle? Do we believe miracles can happen?
- Discuss how we show compassion and care for others. Children can be gently challenged, whatever our religious beliefs should we show compassion? How can we care for others?
- Use Bible stories across the curriculum. You could make some bread or show practical care for others, perhaps by collecting for a foodbank.
