P3 RME - Senses in shabbat
Good Morning! Can you believe that we only have 3 weeks left of school and you are nearly Primary 4!!
It has been a while since I’ve seen you and I’m so looking forward to seeing your smiling faces again.
Today we are learning to develop an understanding of some of the Jewish Customs on Shabbat and we are focusing on what senses are used during Shabbat.
What are our senses? Smell, sight hearing, taste and touch. When we are learning about Shabbat today we are going to think about times we need to use our senses and which senses we use. We are going to be learning a bit about the Jewish customs that happen on Shabbat . Does anyone know what Shabbat is? God made the world in 6 days and he had a rest on the 7th day.(Jewish People call this Shabbat)
It begins on sunset on a Friday and ends at nightfall on a Saturday. We are going to be watching some video clips about what happens in Shabbat and we are going to be thinking about what things we use our senses for.
Step 1 :- We are going to watch the BBC Bitesize clip of celebrating Shabbat at home. What things happen that we need to use our senses for? Remember to talk to someone in your house about it if you can,

What senses did you see being used? I saw hearing, taste and sight.
- Hearing – listening to blessings being made.
- Tasting – wine or grape juice from the kiddush cup.
- Tasting – Challah bread(sweet, almost like a cake)
- Sight – watching the Shabbat candles being lit.
Step 2:- You have a picture showing a family having a Shabbat meal. You should write hear, taste, smell, see beside the features in the picture that you may recognise from the Shabbat video clip. You can then colour the picture.
