Ramadan

ramadan

Today, as part of our RE topic, we have been learning about Islam and Holy month of Ramadan when Muslims fast for 30 days. We acted out a typical day for a Muslim during Ramadan and thought about how it would feel to go without food and drink all day. Everyone thought it would be very difficult to do.
We also learnt about how important the moon is to Muslims. Ramadan is the 9th month of the Islamic calendar and the months are determined by the sighting of the moon.  We looked at the different phases of the moon and what they are called.
