Tom and Lily Are in Love KS3
The Key Stage 3 resource focuses on a fictional couple, Tom and Lily. Having first learnt about marriage and relationships through the work sheets and discussion material, the task of the pupils is to decide if Tom and Lily should get married. The resource includes background information for teachers including a section on marriage in different faiths. The pack is aimed to provide PHSE lessons for half a term and includes suggestions for related drama activities.
