Primary 5 have been really busy setting up our learning environment and creating our class charter. Pupils chose a ‘Minions’ theme and we had a lot of discussion about what rights were most important to us and how pupils and staff will work together to make sure all of P5 are accessing these rights.
We have been busy talking about children’s rights, and agreeing on our responsibilities for our class charter. P2/3 chose a busy bee theme!
We all signed our charter as a promise to remember our responsibilities.
The rights P2/3 agreed were most important for their class charter were –
Term 1 –
Outdoor Learning
Indoor –
We designed our own coat peg pictures!
Our class trip top Lochthorn Library
We enjoyed our visit to the library and choose our own books to read.
Visitors in class –
Our school cleaning staff visited us to tell us about their jobs. We know we have responsibilities to help look after our classroom too, and make it a nice environment to play and learn in.
We are counting up to 100 days at school on ten frames on our rocket!
At the beginning of Term 1 we spent time getting to know each other better. We took part in team building activities, getting to know you bingo and created self portraits in a Minecraft style. To become familiar with our new classroom we did a class scavenger hunt. We shared what our hopes were for Primary 4 and created a display with our hopes on a hot air balloon.
At the beginning of P4 we took some time to learn more about children’s rights. From our learning we chose 4 articles to focus on as a class to ensure our class is a place we can all learn. From this we created a class charter and we chose a Pokemon theme. As a class we have agreed what the children will do and what the adults will do to ensure our rights are met. We all have a responsibility to make sure our rights are met.
We have been busy learning all about our rights. We worked together to create our class charter.
Meet Muddle!
In Primary 1/2 we use the Colour Monster stories and displays to help us understand and talk about our emotions. Muddle has joined our class as a worry monster. His feelings are all mixed up and he knows how that can make things feel difficult . We write or draw our worries and pop it in his mouth, the next day they are gone!
We have a worry flow chart behind Muddle’s seat which we discuss in class. Muddle has helped us talk about our worries and reminds us who can help us in school and at home.
In Primary 1/2 we have been learning about our role as global citizens and discussing everyday things we can do to help our environment.
We came up with 5 ideas each and then made a “Promise to our Planet”. These include recycling, saving power, being careful with our water use and respecting nature.
Article 29 – Your education should help you use and develop your talents and abilities. It should also help you learn to live peacefully, protect the environment and respect other people.
