Subject: Religious Education / Philosophy

Order Number: 14021

Pupils enjoy wordsearches and crosswords and are often unaware that they are actually learning exercises! These wordsearches and crosswords devised by practising teachers are a useful back-up to R.E. work on a variety of topics. They can be used as homework or as one off exercises in the classroom by both specialist and non-specialist teachers.

The resources can be used to reinforce topics which have already been covered, or they can form the basis of research. Many are differentiated so that they can be attempted by pupils of any ability level and there are some specifically aimed at special needs pupils. Extension activities, such as producing definitions, will follow naturally from using them. All wordsearches and crosswords come complete with teachers' answers.

Topics covered include:

• Moses
• Islam
• World Religions & Symbols
• Sikhism
• Festivals
• Hanukkah
• Hinduism
• Judaism
• Christianity
• Places of Worship
• Chinese New Year
• Christmas
• Buddhism
• Rastafarianism
