RE in Year 3

-

We have started our Advent topic in RE called Visitors. We will be following this topic for 4 weeks in preparation for the celebration of Jesus at Christmas. This topic emphasises the coming of God, in the person of Jesus, 2,000 years ago at Bethlehem. Jesus was not a passing visitor though, but one that dwelt among us. The joyful expectation of Advent encourages us to take steps to recognise the coming of God into the world today and to believe that in the future this same God will come again in glory.

To explore our new topic we first enjoyed the story 'A Visitor for Bear' before engaging in a whole class discussion about how we prepare for visitors to come around and why it's important to do this. There were some amazing ideas and it was a great display of how conscientious the pupils in year 3 are.

"We make a really nice meal for visitors to our house." - Raveena

"I try to get toys out that I think they'll like." - Jack

"I will make tea and make sure we have cookies to eat." - Johaan

"We tidy the house so it's nice and clean." - Noel

"I make sure to ask them about their day." - Ivy

We then wrote this wonderful VISITORS acrostic poem as a whole class before writing our own.
