The Story of Zaccheus- 03.10.14

Lesson: Religious education

Class: Miss Rigby- Year 2 Year: 2014 - 2015

In RE we have been learning about Zaccheus. He was a tax collector and cheated people out money. But one day, because of all the crowds, he climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus ans Jesus saw him! This meeting made Zaccheus change his ways.

We talked about the story and we made puppets so that we could act the story out. We also asked very important questions and thought about what we could learn from this story.
