In RE this term, we are looking at recognising the qualities of inspirational leadership and to contemplate some unanswerable questions.
Today we focused on Abraham, who was the founder of Judaism and was the first to make a convenant to God. We learnt that Abraham was the first person to teach the idea that there was only one God; before then, people believed in many gods. Abraham is a significant character in other religions - not only Christianity but Islam too. Muslims know Abraham as Ibrahim, and regard his as an important prophet of their faith. We watched a short video clip of God's promise to Abraham, God's Promise for Abraham | Stories of the Bible (youtube.com) then completed a comic strip of our own interpretation of the story! In Science this week, we have been learning about how the sun, moon and earth move. We were fascinated by how we only ever see one side of the moon, even through it rotates on its own axis.
We spent some of our lesson in the playground recreating how the moon rotates and orbits the earth, at the same time as the earth rotates and orbits the sun! |
