RE

Remote learning

As you will have seen from all of the parent mail which has been sent out, our online remote learning has moved to Microsoft Teams. From Monday 18^th January, all work will be posted on Microsoft Teams whereby children can access teaching videos, find their work for the day and even hand in their work virtually.

If you have any questions or queries about this, please contact the school office where help will be available.

Keep up the good work everyone, we are extremely proud of you,

The Lumbertubs Team 😊

Welcome to RE at Lumbertubs🎉

The true meaning of Easter for Christians ✝️✝️ ( 16.2.2021-4.4.2021)

This is what Christian's believe happened and how they celebrate at Easter time:
Shrove Tuesday – pancake day, use up all ingredients 🥞
Ash Wednesday – ⛪️ church services ash on head, marks beginning of Lent - 40 days - Jesus in the dessert 🏝🌞being tempted to turn on God - giving something up
Palm Sunday- Jesus out of dessert – welcome Jesus back waving palm leaves 🌴
Last supper – Maundy Thursday - Jesus & friends/ disciples , Jesus washes their feet 💦picks out Judas, 🍞bread – his body, 🍷wine – his blood – Jesus says goodbye 👋
Arrest of JESUS - Jesus is caught ⛓
Jesus was crucified – Good Friday - Jesus was nailed to the cross ✝️and died.
Easter Saturday - His friends put him in a tomb and covered it with a large rock. 🌑
Jesus rose from the dead – Easter Sunday – Jesus rose from the dead! He had come back to visit his friends. He told them to teach others about God’s love. “Tell the people to believe in me, even if they can’t see me.”
Ascension – ⬆️ And then Jesus rises up to Heaven to live with his Father.
Pentecost – ⬇️🌍 holy spirit sent down in Jesus place on Earth – Like an invisible friend, in different forms – doves 🕊🕊🕊🕊

Today, Christians go to ⛪️Church to pray 🙏and because England 🇬🇧 Is a Christian ✝️country we all celebrate 🎊and have time off at Easter as well as eating Chocolate eggs, hot cross buns, egg hunts and sending Easter cards etc. New beginnings ✝️✝️

Activity✏️ design a timeline of Jesus’ final weeks on earth 🌍
This could be done with mini drawings, words, numbers. Remember no one is to draw God as no one knows what he looks like

I hope whatever you are doing you are doing it at home :)
