digital learning – Class of 2015

P6 Digital Leaders

P6 had another busy afternoon sharing their terrific talent with some P1 pupils. They did some sequencing and directions with beebots. Then finished off with some Scratch Junior on iPads.

Thanks again to our Primary 6 digital leaders. You are doing a fantastic job in your leadership role.

Well done 🙂

Primary 4a have been developing their maths skills in STEM this week. They have been discussing inheritance and comparing generations of families. They collected data on a fictional family and presented it neatly into a tally chart. They then used the data to create a bar chart and extended themselves even further by learning to create bar charts using excel! Well done P4a!

Here are some pictures of them collecting data for a survey of their own choice which they will use to create written and electronic bar charts independently.

Coding

Primary 4a are enjoying to build their own simple computer programs. They are working closely with Mr Harris from St Ninian’s to develop their confidence at using Scratch an online coding program. The children are using their problem solving to solve the task given to them by Mr Harris.

Have a look at what 3c have been doing!

Digital Technology Week

P3c were lucky enough to learn about how people use technology in the wider environment. We used ozbots which were mini robots. We designed pathways for the ozbot to follow.

Local Area Topic

As part of of our Local Area topic, we have been enjoying the outdoors and conducting a traffic survey of the different vehicles which pass our school. We then created this information into graphs.

Library Visit

We walked to Giffnock Library and were lucky enough to find out about the different ways we can use the library and each selected a book to take back to class. We found out about the history of the library and had a look through some books about the history of the local area.

Science Centre Trip

A reminder that we will be going to Glasgow Science Centre next Tuesday (5th June). Children can bring a packed lunch if they wish or order a baguette from the school which we will bring with us.
