Happy Easter ‘holidays’ Happy Hippos and Lovely Lions. I know this may not be the usual Easter holidays you’re used to but I’m sure you will make the most of it!
We have loved all of your photos that have been emailed in and we have enjoyed speaking to you and finding out what you have been doing over the phone too.
Over the next two weeks we will continue to upload activities on to my maths, sumdog and times tables rock stars.
With lovely weather like this, take a book outside, build a reading den and have fun reading too!

As it is the Easter holidays we have RE themed homelearning for you to complete over the next two weeks.

Friday 3rd April

As part of your RE learning and preparation for Easter, we would like you to focus upon Holy Week – this is when Christians reflect on the final week of Jesus’s life. ​Can you complete ONE of the following activities, to develop your knowledge of this special time in the Liturgical Year?

•Create a PowerPoint that includes information about each station of the cross.
•Write prayer booklet, to thank Jesus for His sacrifice and offer prayers of strength and support to those who are suffering.
•Record the thoughts and feelings of Mary in a journal – how would she have felt at this time? Why?
•Make a stained glass window about ONE of the stations of the cross that means the most to you.
•Host a worship session with members of your household. Can you choose a special image or bible passage to use as part of your reflection on the events of Holy Week?
•Write the words ‘Holy Week’ in large bubble writing and include any relevant religious symbols, signs and Holy
colours to decorate it with.
•Look up the stations of the cross online and read the Bible story. Can you use drama or role play to re-enact each scene and remember what happened?

Friday 10th April

This week, as part of your RE learning, we would like you to focus upon Sikhism. ​Can you complete ONE of the following activities, to develop your knowledge of this faith further?

•A painting of all of the religious symbols found within this faith? Label what each one is called/used for.
•An information poster including 10 key facts about the religion.
•Write a diary entry for a follower of this faith – what would their day look like and how would they pray?
•Build a place of worship for your chosen faith ​(e.g. temple, Gurdwara, Mosque)
•​Create a piece of music that could be used for prayer by the followers of this religion.

•If you could make a set of rules or commandments for this faith, what would they be?
•Create a set of top trump, ‘snap’ or ‘pairs’ cards about this faith, to play with your family members.

Here is also some art inspiration from Mrs Pearson-

Leonardo Da Vinci did a famous painting of The Last Supper.

Can you draw, colour or paint you own Last Supper picture?
Fancy something different:
Make a stained glass window about ONE of the stations of the cross that means the most to you.
OR
Create your own Easter Garden, include a simple cross, cave/tomb, add flowers and/or seeds that will grow over Easter.
