Golden Jubilee Learning Experiences Begin

Golden Jubilee learning experiences have begun in ernest this week.  Primary 1 pupils visited the Winter Gardens at Duthie Park to investigate a variety of plants and flowers.  They met Clare and Arthur who helped them to spot and name a variety of brightly coloured flowers and to create a crafty flower. Primary 1 took photographs with their DSs and they drew pictures of what they saw.  The photographs and drawings will be used to inspire them to create a 60’s floral pattern for fabric.

Ellon Primary School Blog Progress

This blog is very much a work in progress. The website development group are leading this initiative.  They have met with Ms Rossvoll and also Mr Robertson from Education Scotland.  They are in the process of learning how to share their learning, achievements and contributions within school, the community and the wider world through the blog.  They have learned how to add a blog post and how to edit images using Picnik. This week they will learn to capture and share sound files.  The group will move on to develop their skills in taking video, editing, compressing and uploading to the blog.  Once the group has an awareness of these skills the school blog will go live.  The website development group will share their expertise with their class to enable them to contribute to the blog. We look forward to going live after Christmas.
