Today we started to think about how and why some Buddhists meditate relating our discussions back to all our work on spirituality. We listened to part of a clip where we listened to the music. We closed our eyes and sat very still and quiet. We discussed what we thought about whilst listening. We then found out that the clip was called ‘meditation’. We discussed what we already knew about meditation and then children were introduced to the fact that Buddhists use meditation as part of their spirituality. We then watched a clip on Buddhist meditation where we wrote facts onto our white boards then created an anchor chart as a whole crew. We then listened to a variety of Buddhists speaking about a range of different things. We thought about when and how some Buddhists meditate, why they meditate, what might be hard about meditating and what the benefits may be. We then demonstrated our knowledge through an independent activity.
