Willowbank School, KilmarnockWe were all effective contributors when we came together for our first group gathering since COVID. We played some fun games and had a dance off. Then finished off the party with and outdoor snack.
Happy Easter everyone.
Drake Music was a great success again this week. The Transition class were Effective Contributors showing Ollie what they had been practicing when he had been off. Ollie was very impressed by ‘In the Jungle’ especially the very high parts in the chorus!
The Transition class had a chance to use different apparatus in P.E. this week. They were Effective Contributors to the lesson, helping to spot each other on the trampoline and helping each other to set up and use different apparatus.
The Transition class had a lovely time at the petting zoo when it visited us for an Easter treat. The class were Responsible Citizens handling the animals very carefully and using quiet voices. The class liked all the animals but I think the duck was a favourite.
Effective Contributors and Responsible Citizens
To end a fantastic week of Easter fun, the Sunflowers enjoyed a trip to the park. We loved playing together in the sunshine and can’t wait for the holidays now. Have a great break everyone, see you soon!
Successful Learners
The Sunflowers have had lots of fun in the sensory garden playing with our frizbees. Each child was able to throw the frizbee and hold it their hands to explore its shape. Some children attempted to catch the frizbee and play throw and catch games with their classmates.
Confident Individuals
As part of this terms 50 things outdoors tasks, the Sunflowers have experienced the sights, sounds and feelings of a rainstorm in open air. Each child was able to play in the rain and some children were able to run, jump and splash in puddles. Everyone put on their waterproof jackets to take part.
Confident Individuals Responsible Citizens
The Moonbeams have had a fantastic week participating in a variety of activities. They loved seeing the animals and having a little hold. Yesterday they were dancing with friends at the outdoor party as well as enjoying an Easter Egg hunt and Easter crafts. Have a lovely holiday!
Yesterday was our outdoor Easter disco. We had lots of fun outside with our friends with bubbles and dancing. We also had our snack outside too. We then enjoyed an indoor egg hunt in the class finding eggs and putting them in our buckets. We then enjoyed another outdoor egg hunt with the Snowdrops I the playground today. We were confident individuals holding our buckets and looking around to see how many eggs we could find. We then sat and counted out all the eggs inside our buckets.
This week we used icing on a spoon and icing in a pen to decorate Easter biscuits. We had to use the muscles in our hand to squeeze the icing out of the pen to create a pattern on our egg shape biscuit. We were confident individuals holding the spoon and then pen to create our design. We were responsible citizens making sure we made sure we left some for our friends to use too. Some of us even tried the biscuits once we had finished making them.
