Primary Hinduism
Many RE teachers find it difficult to integrate learning about the Eastern religions, and in particular Hinduism with its amazing internal diversity. Primary Hinduism presents a comprehensive and modern version of Hinduism in line with the non-statutory framework for RE from a Hindu perspective. Through stories, illustrations and fun classroom activities it provides an ideal introduction to Hinduism by examining the variations between and within religions. Each chapter concludes with a summary that distinguishes between learning about and learning from religion. Most importantly, Primary Hinduism promotes a greater understanding of how beliefs guide actions, what they mean to those that hold them and how they are relevant to pupils' lives.

The six weekly themes are:• God is love • Love God • Love one another • Love your enemies • Love your neighbour • Love yourselfWomen of FaithFocusing on six women - from the Old and New Testaments. Each of them tells a remarkable story and offers a distinctive example of faith.
