All of our resources use this lovely learning theme to support children across all areas of learning. Each activity can be adapted to suit children's individual attainment and encourage their next steps in learning. While they were busy playing shops I observed them talking about prayer mats (which they didn't know about before this activity), I also heard a child mention they were 'off to the mosque'. If you are making the pancakes from scratch, do this first. Stir together the yeast, warm water and sugar and leave the mixture to stand for a few minutes until it becomes foamy. Whisk together the flour, semolina, powdered milk, baking powder, salt and egg to make a thin batter. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to rest for one to two hours in a warm place until the mixture becomes bubbly.

When tiny bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, the surface is no longer shiny, and the bottoms are a light golden colour, the pancake is ready (it only needs to be cooked on one side). Leave to cool, then cover with plastic wrap to prevent pancakes from drying out – this is the key to perfect qatayef. When it’s time to fill the pancakes, the edges need to be pinched together. If the pancake is dry, the edges won’t seal.Ramadan is a very important part of the Islamic calendar. It happens in the 9th month of the Islamic Calendar. Every year the date is different. We used blue tac and added them to the windows and even used our homemade light box to enhance the colours. The children really loved the vibrancy of colours that appeared as the light shone through their pictures. These engaging activities and resources will be great to use when supporting your classes understanding of the Story of Ramadan. All of our resources are teacher-made and offer top quality, age appropriate learning. Arrange the filled qatayef in one layer on the lined freezer tray place in a freezer bag, securely closed, then freeze for at least two hours. (For ease, each freezer tray should only hold one type of filling.) It’s important to freeze the qatayef so they hold their shape and don’t break open when fried.

From teacher-led learning aids which will ensure your class stay focused during adult-led sessions, to appealing continuous provision enhancements; you are certain to find the perfect activities for your class. By teaching young children about different ways of life and beliefs, they are more likely to be tolerant and respectful to all irrespective of their cultural or religious connotations. Eid activities for early years encourages exploration of this special time in the Islamic calendar. For the cheese and walnut or cream-filled qatayef: combine the sugar, a half-cup water, orange blossom water and lemon juice in a small, heavy-based saucepan. Bring to the boil and boil until the syrup is clear. Set aside. I really do love sharing with children different religions, festivals and celebrations. They really find them fascinating. So far this year some of the cultural trays we have enjoyed are Shrove Tuesday, St Davids Day, Handas Suprizeand Easter. Educating children about the story of Ramadan in an age appropriate way will help them to support other communities, and take an interest in beliefs which differ to their own. You might want to encourage children celebrating the event to share their experiences with their peers, giving them a platform to discuss their home-lives and religious beliefs.For the cream-filled qatayef: take your fresh (un-fried) qatayef, and fill with about a tablespoon of cream. Fold over to enclose the filling, and pinch the edges to seal. Place on a serving plate and garnish with pistachios or nuts of your choice. For the cheese and walnut filling, drain the akkawi of any excess moisture in a colander. Combine the walnuts, sugar and orange blossom water in a bowl. Embedding teaching and learning about various cultures, beliefs and traditions will help children to develop a greater understanding of the world and our diverse society. To fill your qatayef, line a number of small trays with baking paper – the trays should fit your freezer. Here at Twinkl, we are committed to ensuring that learning is accessible and engaging for all children. Our Story of Ramadan resources use a range of teaching and learning techniques to support each child's individual learning journey and preferred learning styles.
