Teaching P34 to Blog
Yesterday we worked with Primary 3&4 in order to teach them how to blog. We had to log them them into Glow, and this caused a bit of a problem because all the passwords needed to be changed. Maisie said she had problems because her partner was newer to the school and didn’t know her account. Ciara said sometimes typing passwords was tricky, but pressing the show password button helped.
Next we had to show them where to find the blog on their class Glow page. Alicia said once they were 
on the dashboard some got stuck on what to write about. Elizabeth was impressed with how good some people were at typing. A really top tip our class passed on was to copy the blog before you publish because sometimes the system times out, and you would have to start again if you didn’t copy it first. When P34 were doing the blogs Danni was impressed with how much they wrote and their spelling. In order to teach skills to others, Annie said you need to be good at explaining things and Abbie said you must be patient, as people can take a long time to type. Oliver noticed you need to give people lots of thinking time.
Some of P45 are having problems getting on to their own blogs in school. Mrs Clark will investigate!
Science Club Rockets
Port Ellen Science club kicked off this term with a building session using Knex, Lego and Quad
ro to build a vehicle of some type. Great designs, and an opportunity to see how different materials require different approaches.
Next a collective decision was made to try the Crest science activities from Einsteins Birthday Party Pack, a trial set from the British Science Association. These were great, and involved lots of balloon based experiments, Ewan’s group managed to put a pin in a balloon without bursting it and Anwen was able to use a balloon to move water without touching it.
Next week groups worked in teams to make a balloon powered rocket to carry an item across the room. There were some difficulties with friction and direction though!
Finally we had a science quiz to test the teams knowledge of all aspects of science, the chemists were the winners by a narrow margin.
