A Gift to the Child: A New Pedagogy for Teaching Religion to Young Children.
Hull, John M.
Religious Education, v91 n2 p172-88 Spr 1996
Describes the main features of a new method for teaching religious education to children. Compares this method to other British religious education approaches. The "gift method" approach begins with the child receiving some easily understood component of a religion (song, prayer, material object) then progresses to a more complex understanding. (MJP)
