In Teachings of Jesus, Year 7 students begin on a journey learning the Ten Commandments, the Greatest Commandment, Eternal life, the Precepts of the Church, the formation of conscience, the Beatitudes, and discipleship.
This revised textbook integrates the Australian context and pedagogical methodology, ensuring that lessons are both relevant and deeply rooted in the latest teachings of the Church. Designed to be visually engaging, the updated illustrations and layouts capture students’ attention while enhancing their learning experience.
Each lesson begins with prayer, allowing students to focus and seek the specific graces discussed in the chapters. Thoughtful discussions address contemporary cultural questions and challenges, making the teachings of Jesus ever more meaningful in today’s world.
Interactive activities encourage understanding, while Check Your Understanding sections include both direct and application-based questions that foster higher-order thinking—asking students to analyse, evaluate, and create. The Go Deeper section helps students reflect on their conscience in relation to the commandments they have learned, preparing them for a sincere and meaningful confession.
Through this journey, students will not only gain knowledge but also cultivate a deeper faith, guiding them toward a life shaped by Christ’s love and wisdom.
