During todays recording of mAIRwaves classes Tiree and Whalsay discussed things they would like to learn at school this year.

They had a discussion about they wanted to learn in maths and english and then recorded their answers on a document which will be saved as evidence. 

At the end of the school year the pupils will evaluate how successful they have been in their target setting.
