The Stars Class have noticed the trees are changing in the garden. We collected different coloured leaves and made colourful autumn prints with them. We had fun exploring a Nanny McPhee story bag and handling the props.

The Royal Bank of Transition
The Transition boys had money on their minds this week. They were Successful Learners as they improved their money identification skills ready for a treasure hunt. Storm Ali had other ideas though, so the treasure hunt was moved indoors.
The Calm Before the Storm
The Transition boys managed to brave going outside before Storm Ali arrived to do some literacy work. The were all Successful Learners when asked to find objects around our Sensory Garden and spell out what they had found using their magnetic boards.
Scottish Maths Week
The Stars Class were busy doing lots of maths activities this week. We explored number, colour, symmetry, shape and measurement using duplo and enormous bricks.
Transition boys were successful learners by spelling their names onto the whiteboards. Well done boys!
Transition Boys Are You Ready !!!
Transition boys were successful learners racing each other in teams of 2 using colour hoops.
We had fun this afternoon doing some shape and movement activities. Lyle and Valo practised their positional language using a beebot, Skye and Dave sorted some different shapes and built jigsaws and the girls went on a shape hunt around the school! We were very successful learners!
We led assembly this week which was on the theme of friendship. We told the story of ‘Rainbow Fish’ then showed everyone all the friendship activities and art work we’d done. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.
We have started to compile an ‘All About Me’ booklet as part of our new theme, Nanny McPhee.
Around the World….and Garden!
The Stars Class enjoyed making Mexican Quesadillas at HE and had a colour treasure hunt in the garden. We were able to match all the colours. We made a poster to highlight UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, article 15, ‘You have the right to choose your own friends’. We are getting to know our new classmates and created playdoh faces to display.
Good Week Back For The Stars Class
The Stars Class have been getting to know each other by talking about friendship and doing activities together. We made a birthday board based on ‘The Greatest Showman’ and compiled a Class Charter. In the Garden we harvested carrots and courgettes we’d grown and made a tasty stir fry at H.E.
