This term in Year 1, we have been learning about Christianity and the Creation Story. The children have explored how Christians believe that God created the world in seven days, shaping everything from light to animals and people. We discussed why the Creation Story is important to Christians, focusing on the idea that the world is a gift from God.
“Thank you for the world so sweet, thank you for the food we eat, thank you for the birds that sing, thank you Lord for everything. Amen.” – End of day prayer
We discussed why we say the end of day prayer and what this means to us.
We have also been thinking about ways we can look after the world too, such as recycling, saving water, and protecting nature.
Help at home
– Talk about ways you can care for the environment together.
– Try a nature walk and discuss how you can protect the plants and animals around you.
