Celebrating St. Andrew’s Day

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!

St Andrews Day

The Daisies have enjoyed learning about St Andrews Day. We have been successful learners listening to Scottish music and using a talker to select what instrument we think we heard. Some of the children even tried some Scottish dancing. We were responsible citizens working together to find visuals and match them to a picture on our St Andrews treasure hunt. We made the national flower of Scotland during art – thistles. We finished the day with following a recipe to make porridge for our afternoon snack and loved choosing our own tasty toppings.

St Andrew’s Day

*Confident Individuals*  *Effective Contributors* *Successful Learners*

The Snowdrops have enjoyed learning about the story of St Andrew and creating lots of lovely Scottish crafts.  We made Scottish flags by tearing, scrunching and sticking white and blue tissue paper onto our templates.

We also had great fun dipping toy cars into different coloured paints and rolling them in different directions to create our own tartan pictures!

Successful Learners – ILP work

There was a hive of activity in the Transition class when everyone was working on their ILP targets and showing that they were Successful Learners. We had a group setting the clock to show when programmes start on the BBC. Mr Nicoll thought he could pick awkward times but everyone successfully demonstrated them on their clock faces. We had success with lace tying, fine motor skills and writing motor skills. We even had some great vocalisation from our resident Tenor.  Well done everyone, a superb effort by all.

Successful Learners – Cookery

It was Potato Salad Take 2 this week, as the second group had their opportunity to cook. Skills on show were, research before cooking, microwaving, cutting and mixing as they made potato salad with low-fat, free from mayonnaise. A tasty treat was the payoff for such hard work.

Responsible Citizens – Community Travel

The Second half of the class had their opportunity to fly a kite this week, but……… there was no wind! Instead the group took the opportunity to demonstrate safe travel in the community and prove that they are Responsible Citizens. Well done everyone, I’m sure the wind will pick up soon!

Effective Contributors – Dance

The Transition class took a break from rehearsing out Xmas show this week and just danced to keep moving and improve fitness. We had use of all the equipment and moved our bodies in many different ways. The whole class listened to Mrs Feeney very well and were Effective Contributors to each dance routine. A favourite was the wings, just a shame we couldn’t really fly!

Confident Individuals – Polybat/Table Tennis

The Transition class were Confident Individuals when focusing on their Polybat/Table Tennis skills this week. We took the lesson outdoors (before the wind came) and successfully transferred skills learned in polybat to table tennis. Some pupils even managed to score points against Mr Nicoll!
