Summary:
The Seeking Religion series at KS3 offers a colourful, imaginative and easy-to-read resource for Religious Education.

It has been designed to provide a balanced, factual and culturally sesitive approach to the major world religions, along with opportunities for students to explore and reflect on their own beliefs and values.

This new edition has been revised and enlarged to reflect the necessary balance between the 'learning about' and 'learning from' approaches to Religious Education, and to offer a wider range of imaginative and challenging questions and activities for students.

Reviews:

These Key Stage 3 books offer information and activities about the six major world religions. The foundation edition for lower-ability pupils has been editied by a special needs consultant: the text is simpler and the print size is larger, reflecting the lower reading age of the foundation students. Questions in each section allow students to consolidate their learning. The books are beautifully produced with high quality photographs. Information is accurate and the books are written to conform to the QCA model syllabuses, so RE teachers will find them very useful.
