Growing and Changing Challenge!
* SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS, RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS *
The Moonbeams class had a challenge of placing pictures in order starting from youngest to oldest. They had to look really closely as it got hard to tell after the teenager stage!
We all managed this task well.

Pinocchio Drawings!
* SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS, CONFIDENT INDIVIDUALS *
The Moonbeams class listened to the story of Pinocchio as part of our Italian fairytales.
We decided to try and brave drawing a picture of Pinocchio. It was very tricky and we had to do it step by step, one pencil line at a time. When we were finished, we added some colour. We are really proud of these drawings and think they all look really great!

Maths Streaming – Numicon Fun!
* SUCCESSFUL LEARNERS, EFFECTIVE CONTRIBUTORS, RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS *
During Maths streaming, Miss Gemmell’s group tried to complete some problem solving challenges. We used new equipment called numicon that we have in the school.
The pupils loved using the matching boards to try and complete the numicon patterns then the class split into two teams and had a challenge of covering a blank numicon board using the numicon shapes. The teams worked really well together and managed to complete the task!
