Resources for Parents and Teachers
Read this teacher's report of her exciting work with children using
the film of Becoming Me. Download her article (.pdf) here. In the P4C
approach, no answers are given--children are simply encouraged to reflect
on the story and explore its puzzles, using their own imagination and
thinking skills. Click link above for general info.
Listen to the Song
Singer/songwriter Stefana Dadas and the children of several Unity Churches
got together to write and perform this song inspired by Becoming Me. The
song is joyous and uplifting, encouraging children to know God by becoming
fully themselves. Click the link above to play the song and find out more.
Faiths for a Future
With a strong environmental focus, this book of the popular down-to-earth
training sessions for teachers, run by the Religious Education and Environment
Programme (REEP), provides a range of information and classroom activities
for teachers. Interfaith & environmental. Very compatible with Becoming
Me. Order here.
United Religions Initiative
An extensive resource pack especially for anyone interested in promoting
interfaith understanding with children.
The
Amazing Creation Studio
This vacation church school program written by Rev. Diane Venzera, and
available through the Association of Unity Churches, encourages creativity
and group interaction. The lessons provide opportunities for children
to experience their own process of creation from the conception of the
idea to the final completed project. When we are aware of the steps
involved in this process we can take a more active role in choosing experiences
that reflect who we really are - Divine children of God.

Becoming Me with children?
