About This paperback
This book is based on a series of posters and the idea is to create an Advent calendar by putting a poster on a classroom wall every day for the last three weeks of Advent. Every assembly considers the meanings behind each of the images that are so familiar at this time of year, and concentrates on a particular Advent character or aspect. All the posters are photocopiable onto an OHP transparency, and have a thought for the day, which can be read by the pupils or the teacher. There is also a daily prayer.
Each assembly leads to a classroom activity, for example, the illustrations are modelled around three images and tones with some icons having specific parts to play. Identifying what each image symbolises, forms the basis of the class discussion and may lead to a more penetrating study of the use of numbers and images in traditional religious art.
Pupils are encouraged to take on the role of one of the figures in a particular illustration, which may lead to a form of group drama. There is also the opportunity for pupils to design their own trinity of images, which may form the basis of a greetings card or a larger piece of artwork. Whichever this book is used, the participants will have the opportunity to reflect on and experience the wonderful liturgical season that is Advent
