Ideas for use in class
- The clip would be a lively introduction at the beginning of this topic, presenting an initial overview of ideas, before looking at the theories in more detail. It would be useful to listen to the song once, then listen again, noting down any words that stand out. Students could be asked to split into groups, one to note down the order of events as described in the Bible, and one to note down events/stages of evolution. Ask students to place their own beliefs somewhere along a line between the two theories. What are the thoughts of those in the middle?
