Resources

We want to make it as easy as possible for you to be able to run Prayer and reflection Spaces regularly in the life of your local School and in the wider community. Click on the links below to find useful template documents for organising a prayer and reflection space, information on our resource kits that are available to borrow and activity ideas that you can download and use in your Prayer and reflection Space. The Prayer Spaces in Schools website also contains a wealth of ideas of activities which you may find helpful as you plan Prayer and reflection Spaces regularly. 

Classroom prayer & reflection kits

We have developed a selection of prayer and reflection activities, designed to be used in a classroom setting, when a usual BeSpace is not possible due to the restrictions in place, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The prayer and reflection activities are similar to those we would use in a school BeSpace, but slightly adapted to fit the classroom setting. You may be familiar with the STOP theme (sorry, thank you, others and please) from previous BeSpaces. The activities can follow this theme, but rather than setting up a special space for a BeSpace experience, the activities can be carried out by the students in their class bubble, at their desks. The lesson, activities and feedback should take approximately 45 minutes, the length of time a class is usually in for a BeSpace session.

The introduction to the activities (in the lesson plan) could be led either by the class teacher or TA, or by someone from the local church either online or in person. Or you can use this introduction video by Kirsty. (Click HERE). The teacher or TA would then need to distribute the pre-prepared, individual resources needed for the prayer and reflection activities to the children, who can remain at their desks.

We have small kits with the items needed that we can provide for you. If you prefer not to use BeSpace kits, the activities from set 1 and some of the additional activities could be run using resources from within school only.
