It tells the story of Jesus\'s crucifixion, his rising from the tomb three days later and his ascension to heaven. The animation is bright and colourful and immerses the pupils in the story through a clear, friendly narrative.

Teaching Religious Studies?

This clip could be used discuss whether Easter is a happy or a sad time; or both. In groups they could create freeze frames of different parts of the story, showing clearly how the different characters (Jesus, Mary, the disciples) would have been feeling at that part of the story.

This clip will be relevant for teaching Key Stage 1 Religious Studies in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and Early and 1st Level Religious and Moral Education in Scotland.
