RE

In our RE this week will be reflecting on what we have learnt over our Celebrations unit and gathering children's responses.

Talking Together

Reflecting on the meaning and purpose related to Celebrating and using the pictures from previous weeks, ask the children if there is anything they wonder about celebrating. What is special about celebrating or celebrating together?  Children might be able to remember:

  • What a celebration is.
  • Different elements of celebrations.
  • Different ways of celebrating.
  • Who the church/parish family are.
  • Some of the celebrations of the church/parish family
  • Something of the story of Jesus being presented in the Temple.
Please note down children's responses and upload onto Tapestry.
 
Please write down your child's response to what they have understood and celebrated from their own experience and the experience of the church community (if they have any).
 
Ask your child to reflect on how they will respond to celebrations in the future, 'Next time I am invited to a celebration, how will I show that I am happy to celebrate with others?' For example, send a note to accept the invitation, participate well in the celebration or after the celebration, send a thank you note.
