The Widow And Her Coins

Kia Ora Bloggers! Today in RE we have been learning about The Widow And Her Coins. It will all be exlained in the scrit below.

All: Hello and welcome to channel 6 news! 

Quinn: Today we have a news report about the widow and her coins. This is a story about a widow that gives all she has instead of just a little bit of money she wouldn’t notice is missing.

Sidney: One day Jesus was watching people put donations in the offering box when a poor widow came and put in 2 small coins.

Ruby: Jesus told his disciples to gather round. He said; this poor widow went and put in more than the others yet she only put in 2 small coins.

Quinn: She put in all she had, but the others put in a small amount of money they have just had in their pocket. People were probably watching and judging because she put in a small amount.

Sidney: The point of this is putting in more of what you have is more but putting in a small amount of what you have is a small amount.

Ruby: What are some ways we can be like the widow? 

Quinn: If someone needs help and you want to go and play you should help them.

Sidney: If you see someone with something different or someone less fortunate than you don’t judge them just accept them.

Ruby: Don’t worry what other people think of you, just think good of yourself.

Quinn: Don’t be jealous of other people because you are you and you can’t be afraid to be yourself.

Sidney: Think of other ways you can be more like the widow and less like the people who judge.

Ruby: That was the gospel for this week. Have a great week, be kind and remember, don’t judge people for who they are!

Quinn: Bye and thanks for watching...

Super Fun Lego Building

My favourite Lego activity was the car racing because it was fun to keep on going back and changing things up and me and Izzy won 2nd place. I also liked testing the car and the way we designed it and turned it into a long bus with tables and a spa.

My least favourite Lego activity was the tower building because it kept falling down and we didn’t know what strategy would work best for building the tower. At the end the tower fell down and we had no tower built for the end photo.

The activity that tested my perseverance the most was the tower building because it kept falling over and the strategies we were using didn’t work. 

The most challenging activity was the car one because we had to keep changing it to make it work and at the end the car broke but we fixed it just in time and it started to come apart before the race but we made it work.

I enjoyed working collaboratively with others because I like working with new people and my friends are really easy to work with because we know what eachother likes and how to work together.
