Primary 6 have been creating their own board games, working in groups of four. We planned our games then began to make them. Our next step is to finish making them and then spending an afternoon playing our games.
We also had to write a set of rules for playing our games, ensuring fairness for all.
We have used our HOTS skills and META skills when completing this task.
Mrs Hannay and Primary 6 can’t wait to play these games.
Primary 6 have been busy writing books for Primary 1 pupils. We wrote a story for them, designed a front cover for them and read the storybook to them in the Primary 6 classroom.
We then took the Primary 1’s outside to each them games. We designed these games ourselves.
Primary 6 have had a super successful day. We ran well in the cross country championships at Park Farm, then 4 P6’s represented Heathhall Primary School at the Euro Quiz at Troqueer Primary School. These 4 pupils did brilliantly and won it. They will now travel to Edinburgh to The Scottish Parliament for the national finals in June.
Well done everyone. We are super proud!
Primary 6 have been writing storybooks for Primary 1 pupils. We designed a front cover, wrote the story and wrote the blurb. We are going down to P1 on Friday to read them their stories. Primary 1 pupils will get to keep their books.
On Friday, P6 pupils will be leading sports activities for these P1 pupils. A little bit of fun for the last day of term1! Photos of this will follow on Friday.
The META skills we used were:
Primary 1 invited Primary 6 down to help make bookmarks for World Book Day. We enjoyed having the Primary 6’s down to help with our learning.
The META skills were used were: communicating, collaborating, creativity, focusing, leading, initiative and adapting.
We are going to work together again, this time on music skills.
Primary 6 helped the Primary 1’s to make bookmarks for World Book Day. We partnered up with a younger pupil and helped them with folding and cutting. The META skills we used were: Creativity, Collaborating, Communicating, Leading, Focusing and Adapting.
Primary 6 have been creating posters on cyber resilience and how to stay safe online. We worked on our own on this task. We also looked at scenario blether stations about sharing information online. We had to identify the information in each scenario that should not be shared online.
Primary 6 have been creating gymnastic routines in PE with Mr Sharp. We have been creating movements that flow from one movement to another.
Fraser ran his chess club again today. He was teaching skills on how to play chess, playing on traditional boards and using digital technologies for online chess.
Primary 6 pupils have been choosing a person from history to research and present to the class. We worked in two’s to complete this task. Click on our work to see our learning.
