Year 1 RE, by Mrs Bailey
Date: 8th Nov 2024 @ 11:30am
As part of our RE topic this term we have been thinking about what is meant by the idea of something 'precious'. We thought about gifts we give that have a cost to them and gifts that we don't pay for.
We realised that we are all a gift to our family and friends.
We wrote some gifts that we are going to give that don't cost anything and put these in a gift bag.
Some of our gifts:
I will be kind.
I will tidy my bedroom.
I will share.
I will be helpful.
I will smile at people.
