Year 2 had a fantastic time today exploring prayer in different ways. We watched some videos showing how Christians in Ethiopia live and what they do when they go to church. We thought about how their church was very different to ours. We discussed that even though the church was different, we still had the same beliefs. We then wrote prayers for people around the world. We also thought about where Christians live and looked on a world map and found out that Christians live all over the world. After this, the children reflected on what Jesus looks like to them and drew some fantastic pictures. We talked about how Jesus might look different to different people and that’s okay.
In the afternoon, we thought about tree rings and how they show the growth of a tree, then thought about how they’ve grown since they were born. Then they wrote some lovely prayers saying thank you to God for helping them to grow. Lastly, we made some seed bombs and thought about how the seeds will grow and flourish if we look after them, just like the children grow and flourish with God’s love. A very busy day to end the half term.
