Year 5 R.E. - Sorting the Nativity Story into Matthew's Gospel and Luke's Gospel
In R.E we are learning about the Bible story of the Nativity. We have compared the story in the Bible to what we already know about the Christmas story, and found that some elements are in Matthew's Gospel (the three wise men) and some are in Luke's Gospel (the shepherds)! We then thought about why the two accounts are different, and the Gospel's audience and purpose .
