This morning, we have watched a short film all about Black History and we have listened to three inspirational and powerful stories. Following this, as a class we explored two lovely books called ‘Little Leaders’. We have read a couple of back stories so far about inspirational black people and we plan to read some more this afternoon. The children have drawn a picture of somebody who inspires them (family member, friend, fictional character) and we have discussed why they have chosen this person. We have also studied Rosa Parks in our Reading lesson this week and answered various questions about why and how she made a difference. We discussed how things can feel unfair and what we could do in these situations. The children wrote a short paragraph about a time they experienced unfairness, how they felt and whether they spoke out about this or not.
