Week 3 - Pilgrimage

In this session the students compared Christian pilgrimage with Hajj. They examined the reasons why somebody might want to take part in a a pilgrimage, engaging in role play as pilgrims and writing a letter to their family to explain their motivation.

We grounded this session locally by thinking of pilgrimage sites around Norwich (such as Walsingham), as well as those farther afield. Later in the term, students were also taken on a visit of the University of East Anglia mosque.

This session was assessed using religious education (R.E.) levelled learning outcomes from an R.E. APP grid.
