FAOL- World Book Day

The Daisies were successful learners during World Book Day. We  participated in a book swap, and chose what books we would like.

We spent time in the sensory room and had great listening to different stories while relaxing in our pajamas and costumes.

We were confident individuals when taking part in our costume parade and enjoyed seeing everyone fantastic costumes and favourite books.

On Friday, we enjoyed a visit from author Greta Yorke who read ‘The Tartan Witch’. We were effective contributors and took part in lots of sensory activities linked to the story. The daisies especially enjoyed making a magic potion!!

Fairtrade Fortnight

We have been learning about Fairtrade this week. We had a Fairtrade assembly by the Snowdrops. We were confident individuals in making our own special Fairtrade delight for the Fairtrade Bake Off yesterday. We made cake pops with ‘rice krispies’ and made them look like sunflowers. The boys were fabulous at this. They waited their turn and listened to instructions. We even made extra so the we all could take one home.

AND WE WON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was our whole school Fairtrade day. We went to the hall and played fairtrade corners and pass the banana.  We were also very lucky and had a fairtrade hunt. We had a huge surprise at the end when we met a monkey in our school sensory room. He danced with us. We had great fun.

We have been learning all about similarities and differences as part of our LGBT mini topic. We have been reading ‘Giraffes Can’t Dance’ and exploring what makes each of us special and unique.

 

We enjoyed being successful contributors and taking part in an LGBT showcase with the other primary classes to share our learning, then took part in lots of purple sensory and art activities too.

LGBT – Purple Friday

Today is Purple Friday. We are having whole school activities. This morning all the primary classes came together in the hall to share their learning and activities completed about their LGBT  book.  All classes also shared their song/jingle about family. Some classes shared a video and some classes performed it live. The Sunflowers had made rainbow pizzas and shared this. The Daisies shared  similarities and differences from their book Giraffe’s Can’t Dance. The Snowdrops performed their family jingle live with makaton signing. The Bluebells performed their song live. The Sungazers class has symbols to show the audience so we could participate too. The Stars showed a video of their song as some of their friends were on their outing. The Moonbeams had a board to share their learning and have used technology to complete their rainbow flag.

 

The secondary this morning completed the purple activities in the atrium. Some of the activities included sensory colour find with water beads and purple rice. This was a favourite. The Oak and Transition prepared a purple string art activity which looked amazing. The Sunflowers and Daisies made some purple lacing picture for their friends to enjoy.

Fun in the Snow

We enjoyed accessing the playground this week and exploring the snow. We were successful learners and counted our footsteps when walking in the snow, and used instructional language to tell others if we wanted to go faster or slower on the sledges.
