A NATRE project to link creativity with Religious Education for schools
Open Minds
Teacher: This is a theme about community cohesion. RE is really good at enabling pupils to think outside of the box. Being open minded is a value almost everyone admires – no-one wants to be a bigot. But it’s not often that you meet someone who really is open minded & sees every other viewpoint, religious or atheist, as it is.
Students: Everybody likes being open minded – but what does it mean? All religions teach openness, but they don’t always practise it! Images about being big hearted, broad minded and living together with people you disagree with. Different religions can co-operate. Your ideas about the open mind in pictures and words.
