Remembrance And Peace, Reported From Two Sources

LAUNCH · Humanities · Week 6. Religious Education and Ethics. Remembrance And Peace, Reported From Two Sources.

Objective: report what two approved sources from different traditions say about remembrance and peace, compare them using the frame, and name one shared point and one difference.

Success evidence: two reports, each naming its source, plus one shared point and one difference.

Every quotation comes from the approved source sheet. You report what a source teaches. You are not asked what you believe, and never about your family.

40 minutes. Offline.

Report and agree are different jobs

Remembrance is an act. Peace is an idea. Traditions hold both, and not in the same way.

Your job today is to report. Reporting means saying what a source teaches.

Agreeing means saying you think it is true. We never ask that.

Nor does the exam. It asks what a tradition teaches.

So every sentence starts on the sheet, not in your head.

Say the report-and-agree rule once and leave it on the board. It is the guard the whole lesson rests on.

You need the source sheet, the frame and a pencil.

Two answers on the same silence

Answer A says the two-minute silence is moving and everyone should keep it. It scores nothing.

Answer B says source one describes the silence as shared respect for the dead.

Answer B names a source. Answer A names a feeling.

Read both. Ask which one an examiner could check against the sheet.

Only one can be checked. That is the whole difference.

One source reported, then the second

I take source one, a Christian statement on remembrance and peace from the sheet.

I write: source one teaches that remembering the dead is a duty of respect, and that the living owe each other peace.

That sentence reports. It does not say whether I find it moving.

Now source two, a Muslim statement on the same two ideas.

I write: source two teaches that the dead are honoured when a person chooses not to return harm.

From source to labelled comparisonNAMEwhich sourceREPORTwhat it teachesCOMPAREset beside source twoLABELshared or differentThe source number travels with the sentence to the end

Two reports, two sources named. Now they can be compared.

The compare step is one sentence. Both sources tie remembrance to peace, and both put the work on the living.

Stop visibly after the second report and say why. Pupils drift into judgement in the third sentence, not the first.

Notice what I never wrote. I never wrote that one source is better.

Sort the cards, then match them

Six statement cards sit on your table. Sort them into reports and opinions.

A report says what a source teaches. An opinion says what a person thinks.

Then match each report card to the source it came from, one or two.

Two cards are hard. They report a source, then add an opinion.

Put those in a third pile. Say where the opinion starts.

Naming shared ground without flattening it

The easy mistake is to write that all religions want peace, then stop.

It is too wide to mark. You could write it without reading a source.

A shared point must be narrow enough to point at on the sheet.

So I write: both sources place the duty on the living, not on the dead.

A difference is tested the same way. It stays narrow, and it keeps each tradition's own words.

So I write: source one calls remembrance a duty of respect, and source two calls it honouring the dead by refusing harm.

The second column fails because it removes the source.

With the source gone, an examiner has nothing to credit.

Underline the reporting verb

Work in twos. Swap sheets and read your partner's reports silently.

Underline the reporting verb in each one. Teaches, describes, states, calls.

If think, feel or believe is used about the writer, ring it.

That word has moved the sentence from report to opinion.

Hand it back and say which word you ringed.

Then swap back and check yours.

Two reports, one shared point, one difference

Work on your own, using the frame and the source sheet.

Write one report for source one and one report for source two.

Name the source in each. Use a reporting verb in each.

Then write one sentence naming a point they share, narrow enough to point at.

Then write one sentence naming a difference, in each tradition's own words.

Read one report to an adult

Read one report to the adult at your table.

They read it back and say whether it reported or judged.

If it judged, change the verb rather than the whole sentence.

Then choose what happens next. Keep it, rewrite the second report, or add a third source.

Write that choice on the sheet with today's date before you leave.
