Willowbank School, KilmarnockWe have been busy taking part in our MOVE group to work on our individual skills whilst interacting with our friends and having fun along the way.
All pupils have been confident individuals and successful learners when using their equipment to work extremely hard on their standing and walking.
All the boys were successful learners when completing their listening comprehension tasks. There has been great improvement over the seven lessons.
The boys were all effective contributors when coming together to make haggis bon bons. They all enjoyed tasting their hard work. Jack was excellent at reading the recipe to the boys. Everyone worked hard at completing the cooking tasks as independently as possible.
The Sunflowers have had lots of Halloween fun this week. On Wednesday it was the first sensory assembly for some of our boys. There were lots of activities set up in the hall and we moved around them. We made ghosts with hand prints, made sensory bracelets with coloured pasta, dressed up and were dooking for apples. We had pumpkins to carve in the classroom which was fun. On Friday we make our own witches and Miss Hill used toilet paper to make us look like mummies.
Our party is this afternoon keep a look out for another post with photos from that.
Responsible citizens using the drill to create our pumpkin all the boys loved this experience. We also used a hammer and cookie cutter, boys with their toys, great fun.

Skeleton X-ray art work, the boys all enjoyed getting their hand painted and found it very tickly. We had to think about the bones in our hand to add these onto our pictures.
The Sunflowers class enjoyed our recent social education outing where we went on the school minibus and drove around Kilmarnock looking at different homes. We looked at the police station and took a picture to compare it to the house PC Plum lives in. We took a picture of a local shop to compare it to Penny Pocket and Suzie Sweet’s shop. We looked for different coloured house just like in Balamory.
We had a special McDonalds Drive Thru treat too!
We made four different smoothies, Orange, Pineapple, Banana and Blueberry. We followed our pictorial, written and sequencer recipes. Were all responsible for making a different smoothie. We did a taste test at the end and the most popular smoothie was the pineapple one.
