Today we have dove into a thought-provoking P4C session centred on the biblical story of the Widow’s Mite. By looking closely at the story, the children challenged themselves to think beyond face value, exploring big themes like generosity, monetary worth and personal sacrifice.
Using their best critical thinking skills, the class debated what truly gives a gift its value. They collaborated brilliantly, listened respectfully to different viewpoints and showed impressive reflection throughout the discussion.
We then created our own philosophical questions in true P4C style. After a class vote, the winning inquiry was: “Should we judge someone by how much fortune they give?”
Take a look at the photos below to see our young philosophers in action!
