Diggable Technology in the Pine Room.

This week we are highlighting Diggable Technology in School , this also ties in with Article 17 of the UNCRC which states all children and young people should be able to access information, particularly from the media.  Just now we are using technology every Wednesday to access school information via Teams for Assemblies, and we also get to see our friends in other classes on the big screen – Well done Mr Campbell, we think you should get a Diggable Technology Certificate next week!!!

In the Pine Room our favourite pieces of Technology are our AAC Devices, we use it to communicate in different ways, telling the Pine Ladies how we are feeling or making choices.

During Morning Group we are effective contributors and communicate our news to each other using our Big Macks.

Now at home how do you use your technology – do you listen to music on a phone, watch movies on an iPad, skype family members on your computer? Bring in some photos please from our information wall.

We have been successful learners in Science and taken our knowledge outdoors and planted our lettuce, spinach and some onions – in amongst our flowers!!!

In Social Studies we were working on SDG 17, sustainability and being part of a team.

Finishing out IDL Art ready for our wall display.

Practicing for Sports day.

Have a lovely weekend everyone.

Fun Week in the Oak Class

This week in the Oak class we welcomed back some more pupils to our blended model.  We are counting down the days until we are all back together as a whole class.

This week we celebrated St Patrick’s Day and Red Nose Day.

Everyone was also successful learners during our literacy tasks.

Our Theme for Red Nose Day was using laughter as means to help us all through difficult times.  Lockdown has been hard for everyone, and we need to think about what we enjoy doing and what makes us happy.  We were effective contributors and shared with our friends the activities that make us laugh.

Some of the answers were hearing other people laughing and the others were listening to our favourite stories being read in an animated way.
