LEARNING and OUR CLASSROOM

This week the pupils took some photographs of the wall displays in our classroom because they wanted to show family at home where they are learning during the day.

We use this wall to display work that pupils have been proud of and have put a lot of effort into. There will be work displayed from all areas of the curriculum and this wall takes pride of place at the front of the classroom.

Mrs Guy has been the first person to display a ‘favourite mistake’. This wall encourages us to recognise our mistakes as a chance to learn and do better next time…the positive

focus on my mistake took most of the frustration out of my Google Classroom error! The children have been very patient and I hope that the next time someone makes a mistake they will choose to display it alongside the Mrs Guy entry.

In our class we have a Maths wall and a Literacy wall that are working walls filled with prompts that help us with our learning. We have display walls and walls to help us plan our learning and reflect on it. As a welcome, outside our class we have created a beautiful and uplifting display stating that we are all different but we grow together in P4a 🙂

We have bunting around the class that has a contribution from each pupil with a piece of advice for when we feel worried or anxious. The pupils can refer to their own advice or can browse what others have to say. The children have identified rights and responsibilities that they want to focus on this year and have agreed with each other to respect each others rights and help each other to be safe in class.

Do you like our homemade cacti? We have a bit of a nature/plant theme going on in P4a and this was a fun way to display our class birthdays. Can you spot a few real plants including “Wee Spiky”?

We had our first remote music lesson this week and it went really well. The technology worked for us (!) and the pupils engaged very well with the lesson which was exploring different rhythms.
