Primary 5 coding

As part of our ICT lessons over the last few weeks, some of the P5 pupils kindly agreed to share their knowledge on coding using a programme Scratch with both Primary 5 classes.

They started each session by doing some direct teaching using the interactive whiteboards in the classroom.  The pupils then used the ICT suite where they have been responsible for their own group of pupils to help them learn how to code their own computer programme.

All the pupils have been really engaged and love using Scratch and it has been excellent to see the children sharing their own knowledge and skills with their peers and taking ownership over their learning.

Edinburgh Trip – Day 2

Today began with a great walk to the Edinburgh Castle.  It has stayed nice and dry for us all day.  We enjoyed a walk around the castle before heading to Camera Obscura, where we had lots of fun!

After lunch we set off for Laser Quest, where everyone showed their competitive side.  Mr Sandison was the winner!

We ate in Mr Basari’s, probably over indulging again!  The more competitive games at Ten Pin Bowling. It was lovely to watch everyone having so much fun 🙂

After a quick shot at the amusements we headed back to the Hostel for a wash and an early bed before a 0700 start tomorrow.
