Children in Year 2 have had a fantastic afternoon learning all about Harvest Time. We started our afternoon by discussing everything we new about Harvest and the children gave some great ideas. Then... it was challenge time. We needed to sort foods that we thought were harvested in the UK from the ones that weren't - it was tricky but the children did a great job!
Afterwards, we took part in a 'blind tasting' where some children had to guess what food they were tasting that had recently been harvested. It was very interesting to see whether the children could guess correctly or not.
Then everyone had a chance to try these harvest foods.
Finally, we talked about places in our world who are not as fortunate as we are, and the children offered some wonderful suggestions of how we could help.
We used all of our Harvest knowledge to create a Koala's Class Prayer. The prayer is made up entirely of the children's ideas, and they did a brilliant job!
