We enjoyed taking part and watching the class talent show. There is such a variety of talent in the class. We started with a magic show, had various dance groups, some singing and some fabulous artists.
As I listen or watch, I can identify and discuss the purpose, key words and main ideas of the text, and use this information for a specific purpose. LIT 1-04a

We read the book Silly Billy about a boy who worried about everything. His grandma told Billy about making a worry doll. He could then tell the worry doll all of his worries.
We explored some of the things we worry about and we all made worry dolls that we could tell our worries to. We also discussed who else we could tell our worries to and in class we made sure we all knew how to use our worry box. Let’s hope we don’t have any more worries.
I am developing an awareness of the ways in which followers of world religions celebrate different times of year and can relate these to my own life and community. RME 1-06b
We have been learning about the Christian festival of Harvest and also the Jewish festival of Sukkot. We made our own Sukkahs.
Jewish people like to thank God for looking after them.
Sukkot is celebrated in the Autumn, it is similar to the Christian festival of Harvest.
It is a time to remember the time the Jewish people spent in the wilderness, being lead by Moses, when they escaped from Egypt.
To remember and celebrate Sukkot, Jews build a sukkah.
A sukkah is a special hut with a wooden frame. The roof is made from branches and leaves because the stars can still be seen through them.
It is nicely decorated with candles and fruit. People like to hang fruits from the roof and hang pictures and decorations on the walls.
During the Sukkot celebrations Jews like to spend as much time as they can in their sukkah. They will eat, sing, tell stories and even sleep in their Sukkah.
