Willowbank School, KilmarnockWe made reindeer family stone frames for a gift to take home and surprise our families. Confident individuals all round when making these frames. Everyone had a strong opinion about the stones they wanted used for their family, who they wanted in their family frame and even the position / order of their stone family.
The Transition boys were Confident Individuals in the cookery room this week. They were set the challenge to independently make one serving of beans on toast. They boys successfully and safely portioned the beans, used the microwave and toaster and spread their own butter. Their reward for achieving this was…….a lovely plate of beans on toast!
We completed a jigsaw map of Scotland for our IDL topic. We identified all the cities within Scotland and highlighted the city we are learning about, which is Edinburgh.
Confident individuals all around, we listened to the city name and found the correct written word. They had to look at the big map on the smartboard and find the same location on their map once they completed the jigsaw.
The Stars class enjoyed rebound therapy today. Everyone wore a happy smile as they worked hard.

Massive congratulations to four of our Transition boys who recently received their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.

We used active learning in numeracy today to bring direction to life. We had fun moving the cars and the adults in the directions that were called out and shown on the cards.
We were successful learners when given gestural prompts for the given direction.
We chose a partner to play a game with, we were confident individuals when choosing a partner, choosing a game and we played the games with minimal adult support.

The Stars class explored Article 23 – ‘If I have a disability, I have the right to special care and education. We compared a special school in Dubai with Willowbank and found them very similar. Their weather was far better though!
