A complete, structured workbook designed to support delivery and assessment of WJEC Entry Pathways Humanities Unit 6238/E3: Religious Festivals and Celebrations.

This 77-page pupil workbook develops the foundation knowledge learners need before guiding them through detailed studies of Christmas within Christianity and Diwali within Hinduism. These festivals come from two different religious traditions, meeting the unit requirement.

The workbook is suitable for SEND settings, alternative provision, specialist schools, secondary learners working at Entry Level and non-specialist teachers delivering WJEC Entry Pathways.

Coverage includes

  • What religion, belief, worship, community, celebration and festival mean
  • Key Christian beliefs and practices
  • The importance of Jesus to Christians
  • The Christmas story
  • Religious and social aspects of Christmas
  • The importance of Christmas to Christians and the wider community
  • Key Hindu beliefs and practices
  • Hindu deities and worship
  • The story of Rama and Sita
  • Religious and social aspects of Diwali
  • The importance of Diwali to Hindus and the wider community
  • Comparing Christmas and Diwali

WJEC assessment criteria covered

AC2.1 Outline religious aspects of the celebrations
AC2.2 Outline social aspects of the celebrations
AC3.1 Give reasons why the festivals are important to believers
AC3.2 Give reasons why the festivals are important to the wider community

Assessment codes are shown throughout the workbook, helping teachers identify where pupils may produce evidence for each criterion. An assessment record is included at the beginning for teachers to record achievement and evidence.

Activities include:

  • accessible information texts
  • key-vocabulary support
  • retrieval questions
  • matching and sorting tasks
  • sequencing activities
  • storyboards
  • picture-based activities

The repeated and scaffolded structure gives learners several opportunities to demonstrate each skill rather than relying on one final assessment task. Large photographs, clear layouts and generous writing spaces make the resource accessible without making it appear childish.

The workbook is supplied as a PDF and can be printed as a complete course booklet or used page by page.
