Now that '07-'08 religious education is done I’m already looking forward to preparing for next year.

Seeing as Papa Benny has declared '08-'09 the Year of St. Paul I would love to incorporate this in my curriculum for my 8th graders.

Under the link for St. Paul’s Basilica is another link called ‘St. Paul’. That takes you to a lot of information about Paul and his journeys/works that should come in handy for us RE teachers. I’m really excited about this.

I just purchased two Journeys of Paul tube edition games for my class. This should be a great activity for them to play toward the end of each class session. I plan to take digital photos of their gameboard set up each week before we close class so that they can pick up where they left off the following week.

If anyone comes across other ideas for incorporating the Year of St. Paul into the religious education curriculum please share them in this thread.

Thanks!
