We're learning about Special Places in RE this half term. Moses spoke to God in the tent (Tabernacle) he built, we read the story of this in the Bible  in Numbers 7:89. Today we have  started to create our own Prayer Tent; the children draped fabric over a play tent we had, in order to make it a more special tent. The children were then tasked with the idea of collecting items they felt would help further create a Prayer Tent. They chose a Bible, a cross, 3 electric candles, cushions, a rug and a teddy. We had heard how in the tabernacle the lamps are lit and kept burning as a symbol of the presence of God. Year 2 were the first to create and go in our tent to talk to God through prayer.
