REMOTE LEARNING TAKE 2: DAY 2

Today is day number two of 7.27’s remote learning experience. I have taken the children’s views from their Jamboard into account and have created an interactive poster for them to show their learning for today.

If we had been in school today, this morning would have seen the start of outdoor learning with Mrs. Kelly for three periods. The class would then have had three periods of either recovery time in the kitchen, or recovery time with me – where we would have hosted the ‘Mearns Film Festival’ to watch your creations.

For this reason, today’s learning has been designed closely to what we should have been doing in school, and we will still celebrate the Film Festival when we return as the children worked so hard on their projects.

It seems everyone enjoyed their learning today! Here is a snippet of what some pupils got up to…

Aatish, Wint, and Zaina completed some film reviews of their favourite moving images.

Ibrahim took his learning outdoors today and created a map of his local area. Very detailed!

Amaya also undertook some outdoor learning and sent a hilarious video of her completing an obstacle course that she designed.

Delisha went outside and investigated which 2D and 3D shapes she could make with natural materials. She also created an amazing animation too! What a busy day of remote learning.

In the image below, you will see that Olivia took part in a scavenger hunt in her garden with a little help from her Mum hiding some rocks for!

Jamie decided to build on his filmmaking skills by planning and producing an animation. Well done Jamie!

Lea has also created an animation which is BRILLIANT but unfortunately too large to upload, so I will post a screengrab of her film instead.

Lucy spent a lot of the day writing and working on her film as well. Unfortunately it is too large to upload the whole thing but here is a little taster of it…

Some people chose to bake as well. I said that I would have a go at the banana bread recipe, as I had some bananas going off, and I didn’t disappoint. Below is my bread in the oven and then once it was out and cooled. I must admit, it doesn’t look great but it tastes amazing. I had to drizzle some extra chocolate on top to make self-isolation a little bit ‘sweeter’!

Jemma baked banana bread as well, she did this completely independently with only a FaceTime to her gran to find out how to work the oven and mixer. Amazing! Jemma also confirmed that it tasted scrumptious.

Here is Olivia’s banana bread mix before it made its way to the oven.

Not everyone made the same thing, Lewis and his family baked some brownies together. I think that’s something that I’ll be trying next time. Sounds delicious.

I hope everyone continues to stay safe. Let’s see what tomorrow brings!

Well done everyone. Day two – complete!
