DLW – Friday!

What an amazing week of digital learning at Whinhill! We are so impressed with what has been going on in all of the classes!

This morning we spoke at the assembly sharing some of the great work each class has done. We also presented certificates for ‘Digital Star of the Week’. We also had the hard task of deciding who our ‘Digital Class of the Week’ would be. Our winner is…… P2/1!! We loved hearing all about what Mrs Dougan’s class got up to!

There has also been lots of classes doing more digital things today!

P1, P2 and P7/6 enjoyed using the beebots!

 

GP1-3 had great fun using the tablets.

Well done Whinhill for such an amazing week! We hope to see lots of digital learning happening in the future too! #WhinhillDigitalLearners

Primary 2 became nature photographers! They took the tablets outside and learned how to take photos of our beautiful flowers!

Primary 4/3 and 5/4 continued working on their projects about reading helping our mental health. They filmed news reports and adverts against the green screen! We can’t wait to see their videos!

Primary 4/3 and 5/4 have teamed up and started to plan their digital project! They worked in groups to plan a short play or news report to share the message of how important reading is for our mental health! They will be filming tomorrow!

We’re Back!

Hello we are this year’s Whinhill Digital Leaders! Now we are getting back to normal, we’re excited to be using our blog again!

Next week is Digital Learning Week – Monday the 9th of May to Friday the 13th of May. In this committee we have lots planned! For example: BeeBots, MicroBits, tablets, green screens, coding websites etc. From next week we will be going around all of the classes checking in on what digital learning you have been doing that week and asking you questions. If you are curious what our names are they are: Max, Ollie L, Taylor, Lucy, Brandon, Gabriel, Kyle and Ollie J. We are so excited because we have not been able to do anything like this ever since Covid started – two years ago.

As we are going around the classes next week, the Digital Leaders will be choosing a ‘Digital Class of the Week’. Each class teacher will also choose a ‘Digital Star of the Week’. We can’t wait to start this project and see what all of you are learning!

Stay Digital – Digital Leaders
