This week we have been thinking about FOREGIVENESS and understanding what this word means. During prayer and liturgy we listened to the time when Peter asked Jesus how many times should we forgive a person, Jesus replied, “Not seven I tell you, but twenty-seven.” We discussed how Jesus will always forgive someone and wants us to do the same. In RE we have been learning all about CREATION and in particular how God made us to be like Him. We thought carefully about how we can be like God and decided that God wants us to look after His world and everything that He has made. The children are really trying to do this by taking care of their classroom, collecting their natural snack waste for the compost, and looking after each other!
CONVERSATION STARTER
We have began our learning of Kidsafe and in this weeks lesson we have been learning all about TRUST and who our trusted adults are. We played a game of trust. We helped a friend move safely around the classroom, demonstrating how having trust means knowing that person will look after you and be safe. Over the weekend discuss who you trust and why… also begin to share what makes you feel happy and what does not.
MAGIC MOMENTS OF LEARNING
This week our topic has been, “All about me”. The children have been practising their partner talk: turning our whole body to face our partner, and to give our partners our looking eyes. We have had many conversations with our partners but one of my favourites was discussing our three favourite things. The children loved sharing what they love and what is important to them and they all created beautiful images of their favourite things with Mrs Summersall!
LET’S CELEBRATE
