This afternoon we have been learning about the special people worshiped in Islam. First, we discussed Allah (glory to him) and learned about his creations. To do this we went on a gallery walk around the classroom and made a note on our whiteboards to feedback to the class. We then coloured in all of his creations.
We then introduced the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and talked about the important role he plays. We then learned more about his life and his family.
This week we have been sharing the story Goldy Luck and the three Pandas as an alternative text to Goldilocks and the three bears. This has led us on to learning about Chinese New Year.
We created a list of all the facts that we could think of relating to Chinese New Year and China. Some of the children remembered learning about Pandas.
We tasted different Chinese food. We talked about how it was safe for the children to eat it even though it was different to what they normally ate. We made a tally of the food we liked.

To celebrate Chinese New Year we have tasted some delicious Chinese food today. We read the story “I love Chinese New Year” and listened to some Chinese music. We spoke about cultural differences and had a go at eating our food with chopsticks, just like they do in China. We have also looked at what animal it was the year we was born, after learning that this year is the year of the dragon, and explored some different Chinese items in our tough tray.

Big shoutout to Koby who has got our yellow T-shirt this week. Koby has produced some beautiful work around our current text, Goldilocks and The Three Bears, and has done a fantastic job at retelling the story. Koby has also been working extra hard during his speech therapy, remembering to speak slower to pronounce words more clear. Keep working hard Koby!

Today we practiced saying a sentence and then writing it. We talked about writing on the line, spaces between words, capital letters, full stops and pinching Fred fingers.
The progress in the children’s writing this term is fantastic.
