Overview  –  explanation  of  the  content  of  the  unit  and  how  it  explores  the  Salvation  Topic  and  development  of  the  Human  Person  
This  unit  of  work  explores  work  as  a  reality  of  human  existence  and  God’s  original  plan  that  work  means  joining  in  God’s  care  for  individuals,  
society  and  creation.  Through  work,  God-­given  personal  talents  and  skills  are  expressed  and  developed  and  people  are  able  to  live  with  
happiness  and  fulfilment.  Students  will  be  introduced  to  the  basic  ideas  about  work  originally  intended  by  God  and  how  Jesus  is  the  model  for  
how  God  originally  attended  work  to  be.  Students  will  identify  the  gifts  associated  with  different  types  of  work  and  what  gifts  enable  them  to  
work  at  home  or  at  school.  This  unit  of  work  also  encourages  students  to  celebrate  God  who  loves  every  human  personally.  Students  will  
explore  ways  Jesus  loved  God  through  working  and  will  identify  specific  Bible  stories  where  Jesus’  work  for  God  is  present.  Students  will  also  
delve  further  into  forgiveness  of  sin  and  prayers  of  sorrow  that  are  prayed  by  Catholics.  Students  will  have  the  opportunity  to  write  their  own  
prayers  of  sorrow  to  seek  forgiveness  for  their  own  wrong  doings.  Through  learning  about  contrition  and  prayers  of  sorrow  students  are  able  to  
begin  to  prepare  themselves  for  the  Sacrament  of  Penance.  Students  will  read  Gospel  stories  that  identify  Jesus  forgiving  others  to  show  we  
must  always  forgive  as  Jesus  forgives  us.  The  unit  also  explores  the  Two  Great  Commandments  and  how  we  are  called  by  Jesus  to  love  one  
another.  Students  will  reflect  on  ways  to  love  one  another  just  as  Jesus  loved  us  and  will  continue  to  wonder  at  human  work  as  God  plans.

Catholic  World  View  
According  to  the  Catechism  of  the  Catholic  Church  the  sacrament  of  Penance  and  Reconciliation  is:  
1422  "Those  who  approach  the  sacrament  of  Penance  obtain  pardon  from  God's  mercy  for  the  offense  committed  against  him,  and  are,  at  the  
same  time,  reconciled  with  the  Church  which  they  have  wounded  by  their  sins  and  which  by  charity,  by  example,  and  by  prayer  labors  for  their  
conversion."4  
It  is  called  the  sacrament  of  forgiveness,  since  by  the  priest's  sacramental  absolution  God  grants  the  penitent  "pardon  and  peace."6  
It  is  called  the  sacrament  of  Reconciliation,  because  it  imparts  to  the  sinner  the  live  of  God  who  reconciles:  "Be  reconciled  to  God."7  He  who  
lives  by  God's  merciful  love  is  ready  to  respond  to  the  Lord's  call:  "Go;;  first  be  reconciled  to  your  brother."8  
 
Teacher  Witness  
The  Sacrament  of  Penance  and  forgiveness  is  present  through  my  life  as  I  ask  God  for  forgiveness  through  prayer  and  ask  God  for  the  
forgiveness  of  my  sins  through  confessing  to  the  priest  at  Church.
