Assessment in
Religious Education
■ In this unit, students will not be assessed on
their faith, rather their knowledge on the
Catholic Tradition.
■ The major assessment that students will
complete is an iMovie image slideshow on their
chosen Saint which will be completed over 2
weeks.

What can you do

with your child?
1. When allocating family chores,
discuss with your child how
each chore assists the
environment, others and the
individual.

2. Create an affirmation wall in

your child’s bedroom, where
they can write positive notes
about their special gifts and
talents.

3. If you, your child or

friend/family member has
been baptised, share your
memories of the Sacrament.
In Week 4, students will be
asked to bring a photo of their
Baptism to class.

■ On a coloured piece of
paper, you will write: ‘I
Baptise you (insert
