Willowbank School, Kilmarnock* SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS, CONFIDENT INDIVIDUALS, EFFECTIVE CONTRIBUTORS *
The Bluebells class have enjoyed looking closely at weather as part of our ‘Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs’ theme. We enjoyed performing a dance using umbrellas as a prop. We danced to Gene Kelly’s “Singing in the Rain” and loved doing this.

The Bluebells class were very brave when trying a range of themed foods today. We tried a range of foods that were in our theme film “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”. We tried watermelon, pretzels, chicken nuggets, hamburger, ice cream and even sardines!
All pupils tolerated tasting these foods or giving them a kiss.

During our IDL theme “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”, the Bluebells class have looked closely at the weather. Today, the class had a challenge to see if they could read and recognise any weather words. They used the SMARTboard and matched the word to the picture and then had to sort the jumbled up letters to create the words sun, snow, rain, wind and cloud. Miss Gemmell was very impressed with our reading skills!
We have been responsible citizens and observed Scottish weather and have enjoyed acting as weather reporter each morning to share what the weather is like each day.
We created our own weather symbols, then used the SmartBoard to report the weather to our classmates.
This week we have been very busy.
We have settled back into school and are beginning our new theme ‘Homes and Families’. We have explored the story ‘A Squash and A Squeeze’ and enjoyed making the different characters to create a display.
Everyone also worked hard in Music this week and used percussion instruments to make loud and soft, and slow and fast sounds. We self assessed our work using ‘happy’ and ‘sad’ faces.
