On Friday 6th October 2017, P5, 6 and 7 pupils from SLC 3 went to the Sportsability event at Ayrshire College in Kilmarnock. We got to take part in lots of different sports such as athletics, rugby, football, sitting volleyball, netball and dancing. We had such a great day trying out different sports and send a big thank you to all involved in organising the day. We can’t wait until next year!
In SLC 3 we have been working with Ross Macfarlane to explore the story of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory through drama. Ross has been helping us to think about the characters in the story and has been giving us great, active ways to practise new types of punctuation that we can use in our writing.
In our sessions, we have thought about what the characters in the book are like. Here we are pretending to be someone from the story. Can you guess who?
We have also been bringing some scenes from the book to life. Here we are imagining that we are opening the door to the Chocolate Room!
Here is Justin being very pleased to be in a room full of chocolate!!
We have really been enjoying working with Mr Ross and exploring the story!
Evie was able to identify and talk about the colours she was putting into her dream jar. She was pouring them in independently and confidently.
Pupils had to listen carefully and follow instructions to create their dream jars
The finished product!
Pupils playing time bingo – o’clock and half past. Pupils had to read the written time on the card and match it to the clock.
Justin learned about quarter past and quarter to using a matching activity.
