2D's RE days

2D have had a lovely couple of days learning more about the Easter story and the feelings in the story. We read a couple of stories where the feelings change from sadness to happiness, and talked about different times that we have felt sad, then happy. It's been so interesting!

Yesterday we thought about what a church might look like at Easter and the music they might listen to, thinking about the change from sad to happy. We made a list, then looked at pictures to figure out what was actually there. We found a lot of flowers, a lot of crosses (or crucifixes), and lights and candles... but we didn't find any Easter bunnies or chocolate! We talked about how a Christian's view of Easter is different to what we know now.

Finally, we spent the afternoon making decorations that would be suitable for a church during Easter and decorated our balcony to resemble a happy church on Easter Monday when Christians believe Jesus rose from the dead. We posed for some (very sunny) photos in front of our pretend church. Have a look and let us know what you think!
