Spirituality Week 2020

Theme: The God who speaks

Wednesday 20th May

The God who speaks through Scripture

Reading biblical stories about Jesus’ power to heal can hearten and encourage us. Reading these stories can offer hope. Here are two stories from the bible which show Jesus’ healing power which shows us that Jesus has compassion for the sick.

Reception, Year 1 and 2

Jesus Heals the Ten Lepers

Luke 17: 12- 16

“As he was going into a village, ten men with leprosy came toward him. They stood at a distance and shouted, ‘Jesus, Master, have pity on us!’ Jesus looked at them and said, ‘Go show yourselves to the priests.’ On their way, they were healed. When one of them discovered he was healed, he came back, shouting praises to God. He bowed down at the feet of Jesus and thanked him.”

Read by Sofia, one of our Liturgy Leaders

 

Activity: Make a thank you card today for some in your family who helps you. Give the card to them or post it to them if you have not been able to see them from a while.

 

Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Touching his Cloak

Matthew 9:20 -22

“A woman who had been bleeding for twelve years came up behind Jesus and barely touched his clothes. She had said to herself, ‘If I can just touch his clothes, I will get well.’ Jesus turned. He saw the woman and said, ‘Don’t worry! You are now well because of your faith.’ At that moment, she was healed.”

 

Read by Louise, one of our Liturgy Leaders

 

Activity:

Make the sign of the cross and say our Mission prayer.  Read the story from Matthew above.

Draw a large cloak like the one Jesus was wearing and inside it write the following prayer or create your own.

Father,

I pray that my faith in you grows.

I feel you with me.

Give me the courage to ask for your help,

the way the sick woman did.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

Amen.

Choose 2 sounds that you heard and find a way of representing using your voice or objects you have around the house. Think carefully about what sort of instrumental/vocal sound or combination of sounds is best for what you are describing.

 

Finally, perform your soundscape to a member of your family. Can they guess what sounds you’re trying to recreate?

As we (my dog Hodge and I) approach the playing fields, Hodge is straining to pull away. “What’s the matter with you?” I grumble, tugging hard at his lead. “We’ll be there any minute anyway.” However, the moment we squeeze through the gap in the hedge and onto the grass, he plonks his bottom down and wags his curly tail furiously in his best ‘what a good dog!’ position.

What do you think happens next?
Write the next paragraph of the story.

Spirituality Week 2020

Theme: The God who speaks

 

Tuesday 19th May

The God who speaks at Prayer Stations

Prayer Stations are – literally – stations! They are places where people can stop and reflect. Usually, there is something to prompt reflection and, quite often, something for people to do. They are particularly useful for people who are very sensory – who find that God speaks to them through what they see, hear, touch , smell or taste.  They can be used as part of a focal point – at the back of church or in a school entrance or in people’s homes.

Read by Elysia, one of our Liturgy Leaders

 

For each station, click on the play button underneath each image to hear the House Captains leading you in prayer.

Station 1: Mikey   Station 2: Evie   Station 3: Jude   Station 4: Owen

Station 5: Giovanna   Station 6: Jonathan  Station 7: Jack  Station 8: Maria

 

Station 1

The God Who Speaks Through The Cross
Station 2

The God Who Speaks Through the Ordinary
Station 3

The God Who Helps Us

Station 6

Good Morning Year 4!

We hope that you have enjoyed a good start to this week. As always, we love to see what you have been doing. Alice, William, Lola, Sami, Sandro, Darcie-Louise and Mia  have kindly shared pictures of their hard work.

Let’s see what they’ve been up to:

       

Well done on all your fabulous photos- it is LOVELY to see what you have been doing!

Also, congratulations to those of you who managed to get the resources to do the Science experiment. It has been lovely to see some of your photos! If you have not already been in touch, let us know how you got on. Did any of you manage to bounce the egg that was in vinegar? Those eggs became very soft and rubbery! You will find out why, this week, if you do not already know. If you were unable to do the experiment yourselves, you will be able to see lots of pictures on the PowerPoint and you can let us know what you think.

Spirituality week got off to a wonderful start yesterday. Thank you to William and Darcie-Louise for your sheet of hearts showing all the special people who belong to Year 4.

Today’s task for Spirituality week includes audios of different prayer stations for you to listen to that have been organised and composed by Year 6 House Captains and Liturgy Leaders. We are sure that you will really enjoy listening to these. Let us know which is your favourite!

We want you to share your learning with us and tell us what special things you have been doing at home on your own or with your family.  Keep posting!

A reminder: you can keep in contact with us by sending an email to: year4@popepaul.herts.sch.uk.

Continue to try your best in doing your learning each day. Remember, read through each activity for today’s learning and keep your handwriting neatly presented as you complete each task.
