It’s been the first week of the summer holidays and this year we have sun and success; hurrah for the weather and Andy Murray!
I’ll be updating the blog over the next couple of weeks with a backlog of pics from our adventures during last term. I’ll also be doing the same as last year where I’m going to complete the P4-7Â class reader, The Otterbury Incident, chapter by chapter so look out for those. I think I may set some competition around that too.
If anyone is bored over the holidays here’s some stuff to do. Please note, none of this stuff is compulsory (you don’t have to do it), in fact I would rather you were out having fun and enjoying the good weather, however sometimes there’s nowt doing in the hols:
Good luck with any of the above. Post a comment below if you are stuck.
Otherwise, enjoy the weather, take care of yourselves and have a great summer.

Here is the first example of a Scots story that we have been learning in class called the The Boy and the Bunnet.
We’ve learned the story, worked on some of the Scots and drawn and painted, using water colours and ink, the characters and settings. The art work was then scanned and we made digital layered collages to make scenes for a story board, which we use when telling the story. Below is a telling of the story by Fergus and Mark, with the mentioned art work as illustrations. We have also had a go at Garage Band to make a backing track. The next step is to write the story in a similar way as explained in Pie Corbett’s excellent Storytelling into Writing . We’ll then use the iPads again to publish our stories as illustrated books or comic strips.

Another Art Club and another go at Brushes 3. This time we took photos brought them into Brushes 3 and then changed them:
This was the second Brushes session during Art Club, this time inspired by Keith Haring:
As promised back on iPad mini day 1, here are some of the Roy Lichtenstein inspired pieces. This was our first go with the Brushes 3 app on the iPad minis and with a time limit of 20 minutes, any comments are welcome:
