Stars Celebration Day Activities

*Successful Learners    *Confident Individuals    *Effective Contributors

We had an exciting visit by the Police where we got to sit in the Police car, heard the siren and tried on their hats and jackets. We enjoyed a Singing Hands virtual concert where we sang our favourite songs and had a visit from ‘Bunny Love’ where we handled, brushed and fed rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks and a tortoise. At Prize giving we all received good work certificates and one Stars class pupil received the Heather Lauder Communication Trophy for improved communication.

Confident Individuals – Drake Music

It was a happy/sad morning on Tuesday. Happy because it was our Drake Music session and sad because it was our last one. The class were Confident Individuals replaying their greatest hits and having a turn of the guitar. The class made a lovely card for the Drake Music tutor.

Science Week in the Stars

*Successful Learners

We have thoroughly enjoyed Science Week where we have been exploring our senses by doing a selection of experiments for taste, hearing, light, touch and smell. We learned that a blocked nose (or if you hold your nose) affects your sense of taste and we particularly enjoyed the sound game and ‘dancing’ rice which showed sound waves.

Kindness

*Responsible Citizens       *Successful Learners

This week we reminded ourselves to be kind to others. We made a tree of kindness, danced to ‘kindness’ music and read the bible story, ‘The Good Samaritan’. We explored how to care for animals so that they are well looked after and happy.

Scottish Activities Morning – IDL – HWB

*Confident Individuals    *Effective Contributors

We enjoyed a Scottish activities morning in class where we recited Robert Burn’s Selkirk Grace before our snack of pancakes. We used rhythm sticks to tap out the rhythm of ‘Donald Whaur’s Yer Troosers’ and danced the St Bernard’s Waltz. We played boccia with tatties, instead of balls, and had fun welly whanging where we hurled wellies at a target. We played the Hokey Cokey my putting ‘oor richt airm in’ and sang Scottish children’s songs.

We played hopscotch in the garden and created a Robert Burns silhouette picture.

Confident Individuals – Drake Music

At our Drake Music time this week the Transition class were Confident Individuals. After our warm up things started to get more complicated! The class listened well and followed hand signals to make different sounds, some high and some low. They then followed colours and shapes to contribute to a class performance of Auld Lang Syne. We are all looking forward to next week!

FAOL – Whole School Projects – Virtual Christmas Showcase

*Confident Individuals       *Effective Contributors

The Stars class practiced hard for our virtual Christmas Showcase. We performed to the song ‘Let it Snow’ by Michael Buble. We brought in hats and scarves and dressed up as snowmen. We created a snowflake backdrop and acted out and signed to the song. We used the parachute to float tissue paper snowballs into the air. Many people said they’d enjoyed our performance.
