We are going to be looking at Prezis this half-term.

Prezi is a web-based tool for creating presentations (called prezis for short)

It's similar to other presentation software like Microsoft PowerPoint, but it offers unique features that make it a good alternative.

Click the link below to find out more out Prezi.

Activity: click on the links in the PowerPoint below to explore different prezis.

Make notes on: the similarities, the differences and the effects on the reader.

Note down your favourite ideas to use later in your own presentation.

(You may like to use the activity template below).

RE

Watch the video below and read the Bible passage in the document below.

Activity: Look through the text carefully. Mark the points in the text that Christians would use as evidence of Jesus' resurrection.

Annotate the text with questions the passages raise for you.

Red Pen: The Gospels were written at least 30 years after Jesus’ death. Some commentators suggest that the disciples or the early Church made up the idea that Jesus rose, to convince themselves that Jesus was more than a great leader – that he was God.

If you were Gospel writers making up stories about the resurrection, what evidence would you have made up, and why?

Compare this with what Luke wrote (and Matthew 27:62-28:20)
