- Ask pupils to define 'justice' in pairs, and talk about their own experience of justice. Share work with whole class.
- Give groups of pupils accounts of one or two particular incidents,
eg Zacchaeus, when Jesus talked about justice. The groups read the text. They quickly identify:
- what was unjust about things before Jesus intervened
- what Jesus' intervention was
- how the intervention showed the person justice
- what kinds of writing they could use to explore how that person felt about the experience
- They could write out their findings,
eg using a flip-chart sheet.
- Groups report back to the whole class through representatives or re-form into mixed groups to feed back their responses. Summarise some key points and list the kinds of writing alternatives suggested. Ask the pupils to choose one of the incidents and one of the writing alternatives, eg straightforward third-person account, diary, poem, TV news interview, and explore the incident and the impact on the individual to whom justice was shown by Jesus.
