IDL: Ramadan and Eid

We have been celebrating and learning all about Islam, the month of Ramadan and the festival of Eid in the Beech class recently.  we have made beautiful decorations, studied the pillars of Islam and explored virtual mosques.

We also made the Ramadan crescent moon and star out of a paper plate and put a special challenge on the star for a friend to complete.  An important part of Ramadan is taking time to help others and being kind.  We set a ‘be kind’ challenge on our star for a friend to complete before the end of Ramadan.

 

We also explored Arabic writing and language and completed a craft activity twitch our names written in Arabic.  We used Islamic art techniques and colours to decorate our names.

We made a traditional chicken curry to help celebrate the end of Ramadan and the start of Eid.  We took some home for our family to try and the feedback was really positive!

We also really enjoyed making our own Egyptian style bread to experience what food would have been like in ancient times.  We also enjoyed working with sand by creating sand pyramid art and sand clay!

We were very successful learners this week during topic time.
