Jewish families celebrate Purim by making biscuits in the shape of Haman’s hat. These are called Hamnstachen. They look a little like folded jam tarts. For your lesson today, try making some of these at home. I’ll also try to do some too.

Reception – an activity that is popular to celebrate Purim is to create a crown to wear. Your task this afternoon is to create a crown and show me it at our Teams meeting at 2pm. I’m looking forward to seeing your crown and maybe your biscuits too!
Years One and Two – watch the powerpoint and answer the questions about Esther and Purim. I’ll be on Teams to check your answers and admire your biscuits at 2:30pm!
