Yesterday many of our families celebrated Eid with their friends and family and today we had a party in school. We shared some delicious food together and then we had time to dance! Sitting down and eating together is a time when children have opportunities to talk and to get to know each other. We are reading the story Samira's Eid this week so children will be learning about the festival and hearing some of the vocabulary. Celebrating and valuing cultural, religious and community events is part of the Early Years curriculum for Understanding the World. We like to encourage children to listen to a range of music and to move and dance to it. This forms part of the Expressive Arts and Design curriculum and also because it involves a range of movements it is part of the Physical Development curriculum too. Here are some of the photos from our party and at the end a link to the Samira's Eid story. Maybe you would like to watch this at home over the weekend.
