Willowbank School, KilmarnockSuccessful Learners Confident Individuals
The Moonbeams enjoyed learning about why we celebrate St Andrew’s Day this week. The children designed some tartan and made a Scotland Flag using white and blue foam. As part of our theme we looked at the colours of our Flag and investigated the colours and designs of flags around the world. The children were excellent at identifying the correct flag from Makaton colour signs.
The Asteroids have been successful learners finding out about the life of St. Andrew.
We showed great confidence celebrating Scotland by taking part in different Scottish activities.
We learned about the Scottish flag and the sign for Scotland/Scottish and made our very own saltire using tissue paper. We used this knowledge to hunt for Scottish food produce. When we found the foods with the Scottish flag, we had our own wee Scottish snack. We were very confident and tried some food we’d never had before – well done!
We also enjoyed listening to Scottish music and ‘burlin’ each other around when we did some ceilidh dancing. We also took part in singing/signing some Scottish songs – some words were funny!
