This half term our focus in Religious Education lessons is on Hinduism. Year 3’s big question  is How can Brahman be everywhere and in everything?

This week Year 3 were privileged enough to receive a visit from Manisha, a practising Hindu. She shared a story abut how Ganesh got his elephant head and answered lots of questions about the religion in greater detail.

Year 3 then selected information from a range of sources to create a plan for their acrostic poems about Ganesh. By working collaboratively, Year 3 were able to discuss and improve their lines of poetry.

After completion of their poems, each pair spent time with their peers to assess each others work and offer suggestions for improvements.  Then after rehearsing, each pair presented their poem to the rest of the class.
