Monday – RE
Lent
This year lent begins on Wednesday 17th February
Watch this video explaining the temptation of Jesus: https://youtu.be/mc-x4qKY6Wc During Lent, Christians remember Jesus’ experience in the desert by finding some space to be quiet, to think about what God is saying to them and what God wants them to do for him.
The full story of Jesus in the desert can be found in Luke 4:1–13.
Choose either activity or both.
Activity 1: Can you draw a cross. (Template - https://www.j2e.com/st-johns-cofe-primary-school5/Mrs+W+SMITH/Lent+cross+template/) Then using a ruler, make a stained glass window effect. In each piece write a way you can do a good deed. See my example below:
Then, each day choose one way to show love, and colour in that area to make a stained glass window by the time Easter arrives.
Activity 2:
You could make these Lent biscuits (an adult will need to help you so you are safe) and then find a quiet reflection space while they bake.
