RE
This unit is Religion and Rituals. In this unit about religious rituals, the class will learn about what rituals are and how they differ to routines. They think about the non-religious rituals they do every day or at special times and then learn about some important rituals in religions. The class will explore the rituals associated with prayer for Muslims, worship for Hindus and Holy Communion for Christian.
I hope you have a brilliant week!
