La Bibbia con i PlayMobil

bibbia-playmobilHo trovato in rete un divertente sito che riporta immagini dell’Antico e del Nuovo Testamento realizzate con i Playmobil. Simpatiche e divertenti ambientazioni da scaricare, stampare e mostrare ai nostri alunni più piccoli.

Oltre ai brani della Bibbia, sono state ricreate scene relative alla vita comunitaria cristiana, ad es. il matrimonio, e un tributo alla comunità ecumenica monastica di Taizè. La navigazione non è semplicissima, ma cliccando sulle varie immagini e sfogliando le pagine del libro virtuale, si raggiungono tutte le foto disponibili.



Video: Chi sono i “Nativi Digitali”

Video intervista a Suor Caterina Cangià, Docente dell’Università Pontificia di Scienze per l’Educazione “Auxilium”, conosciuta anche come Sisternet o Sorellarete. Salesiana, esperta di nuovi media, si occupa da anni di didattica multimediale. Fa piacere vedere come in rete circolino video di questo genere, i religiosi infatti sono da sempre attenti all’evoluzione della società e pronti a rispondere alle nuove sfide che riguardano in modo particolare il mondo dei giovani.

Giochi per bambini sulla religione e un Sudoku originale

sudokuGiochi per bambini dell’infanzia e per bambini della primaria da svolgere online su questo sito. Si tratta di memory, puzzle e un sudoku veramente originale realizzato con le immagini religiose.

A questo proposito si potrebbe pensare di realizzare un sudoku di classe con un cartellone e tutte le tessere da inserire al posto giusto, magari tematico, legato a uno dei periodi liturgici o ad altri argomenti svolti durante l’anno scolastico (ad esempio i Sacramenti, le Parabole ecc…). Il sito è in lingua fiamminga ma i giochi sono fruibili perchè riportano solo immagini.

Humor: la Pasqua ebraica su Facebook

pasqua-ebraica

Joseph is going to Egypt.

Joseph and Pharaoh are now friends.

Elijah is a bit tipsy, but off to a good start. 30,000 households down, and it’s only 6:30!
Pharaoh is sad to report that my father has entered immortality. I have taken his place in government and will do my best to honor his name.

Joseph Congratulations to you, my master.
Pharaoh Who are you, and why are you writing on my wall?
Joseph I meant no disrespect, my master.
Advisor He is an Israelite. There are many of them. I do not know whether they are with us or against us.
Pharaoh Let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they join with our enemies in time of war.
Rabbi Eleazar ben Azaryah finally figured out why we’re supposed to tell the story of the exodus at night. It’s because it says “all the days of your life!”

Ben Zoma Huh?
Rabbi Eleazar ben Azaryah You see “Days of your life” means days only, but “ALL the days of your life” means nights, too.
Ben Zoma Oh, I always thought that referred to after the coming of the Messiah.
Pharaoh sent The Israelites Bread of Affliction.

The Israelites This stuff tastes awful.
The Israelites This year are we slaves, next year may we be free!
25 things you didn’t know about me by God
1. Guilty pleasure: Smiting people.
2. I had another universe once, it was so much better than this one. But I got really wasted one night and lost it in a game of craps. :( I’m never doing that again.
3. In my old universe, the really cool one, the dominant species was a race of hyper-intelligent beetles. It was so cool. Unfortunately, when I lost that universe I also lost the beetles-as-master-race patent, so now I have to settle for primates.
4. I picked up this universe at a 50%-off sale. I thought I was getting a bargain. But as soon as I took it out of the box at home, I figured out why: space and time are both a bit bent in places, and most of the mass is missing. I wish I had saved the receipt.

Advisor Uh-oh. These are the fingers of God!
Pharaoh OK, I give. 10 plagues is enough.
Rabbi Jose The Galilean Which means that when God later smote them at the Red Sea with his hand, they got 50 plagues.
Rabbi Eliezer No, I think it means 200, since each plague was sent with fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble.
Rabbi Akiva Dude, you missed a comma. Fierceness was its own plague. So that’s five plagues per finger, or a total of 250 plagues.

Libro: “Il Tempio di Gerusalemme – Storia e Letteratura del luogo più sacro del mondo”

tempio-di-gerusalemmeIL TEMPIO DI GERUSALEMME – STORIA E LETTERATURA DEL LUOGO PIU’ SACRO DEL MONDO di GOLDHILL SIMON

Una storia del Tempio non può essere una semplice descrizione architettonica, né soltanto un resoconto di rituali religiosi. È necessaria una sorta di archeologia tutta speciale per studiare questo grande edificio, un’archeologia che porti allo scoperto non tanto rocce e polvere, quanto gli strati sedimentati della fantasia, della politica e del desiderio umani. Dopo la sua distruzione definitiva nel 70 d.C., la storia del Tempio diventa un viaggio attraverso le meravigliose e bizzarre vicende di un edificio immaginato, ma che rimane presente non solo nell’ebraismo, ma anche nelle conquiste di Gerusalemme dei califfi islamici e dei cavalieri crociati, con le loro violenze e romanticismi. Nel Tempio hanno radici anche il mito e i riti della massoneria, le fantasie degli avventurieri vittoriani (e anche il motivo per cui in inglese gli avvocati si chiamano barrister…).
