Good morning! I hope you all enjoyed the beautiful sunshine we have been having! I love the sun and it has really been making me feel happy.  I hope it helps you to feel happy too!

Today we are going to be thinking about what makes people happy and what makes us happy.

Step1:-  watch the following video

One of the characters is happy and the other one is sad. How does the yellow character make the other one happy?

He does something to make him laugh, gives him an ice-cream and a hug.

Step 2:- Talk to someone in your home about this. What makes you happy? It might be watching your favourite film,reading, dancing or playing football.  I am happy when I am doing Zumba, eating cake(yummy!), reading books and listening to my favourite music.

Step 3:-  Now think about what people make us happy.  What do they say? What do they do ?

My friends and my family make me happy, oh, and my Zumba teachers! They might say something nice to me, do something nice for me or tell me a joke. They might hug me, make me laugh, chat to me, give me presents and take me out for dinner.

What about you?

Step 4:- Is there anyone you can think of who would choose you to make them feel happy?  I hope my best friend’s would choose me and my mum would definitely choose me.

Step 5:-  Look at the sheet below. Draw some things around the sunshine that make you happy and people who make you happy.  If you can’t print out the sheet, don’t worry! You can draw a sun in your jotter and draw pictures round about it.

Good Morning P3. I hope you enjoyed some of last week’s sunshine.  I certainly did!

Last week we finished our work on the Six Main Muslim Beliefs. Remember the Arabic word for God is Allah .  Today we are going to be reading a story about the Muslim Prophet Muhammad.  There are lots of stories about him that help Muslims understand how much he loved Allah and always tried to do what Allah wanted him to do.They show how much he cared about animals as they are all part of Allah’s creation and deserve to be treated with kindness.  We are going to be focusing on the story of the crying camel.

Step 1:- watch the little BBC video clip which shows a young girl briefly telling her brother some of the stories about Muhammad.  The first one is , Muhammad and the Ants(We know this story!) and the second one is about the camel.

Step 2:- Read the powerpoint or pdf document of the story which will give you more details and help you do your task.

The story shows us Muslims belief in Allah as the creator and how it is the responsibility of humans to act as caretakers of all animals.  Muhammad taught the man how he should be concerned about Allah’s creatures before being concerned about his pleasure.

Step 3:-  Complete the Crying camel sheet.  Colour in the picture of the camel and write 5 sentences telling me about the story.  Remember the capital letter at the start and the full stop at the end of each sentence.  If you can’t print the sheet then draw a picture of a camel in your jotter and write the sentences underneath it.

eg,  1.The Prophet  Muhammad was walking  through the gardens and heard a strange noise.

2.He saw a camel standing in the hot sunshine, tied to a wooden post.
