winter ready

 

In anticipation for any snowy days, the children at Second Level are well-prepared for any closures! All children have (or will be given in the very near future) their Glow log ons, a home learning activity grid and a selection of websites you may wish your child to complete at home. The activities vary in challenge and offer a range of different approaches to the curriculum.

Paper copies of log ons, the activity grid and websites can be found in your children’s homework diaries. Or you can click here!

Breaking News…. P6/7

Leave a comment

P6/7 had a fantastic time applying lots of skills at the Sky Academy in Livingston. We created an in-depth and highly professional news clip highlighting the plight of endangered animals across the world and the actions we can take to save them. Sadly the clip is too big to upload on this blog but each child was lucky enough to receive a USB wristband with the clip stored on it. We will show off our hard work in assembly next week. We also have a responsibility to ‘keep the magic alive’ for other prospective journalists!

We’re P6/7, reporting for Bankton Primary. Good afternoon!

This post has been written by our ‘Bloggers of the Week’ – Findlay and Gabriel. 

This week we have finished our Learning Pits. Here is an example by Emma.P and Cynthia. This gives you strategies when you are stuck with your learning.

Guess who won the Dojo points? Its was Niomi with a spectacular 44 points!!!

Xander won star of the week for having a growth mindset.

In Number Talks we learned loads of new strategies in mental maths like making a friendly number.

Our reading homework was to do an illustrator task using a book we have read. They were all really spectacular. Here are some                                                                                                                                                                          011

010 005 009

This week in health and wellbeing we are learning about the green cog. The green cog is behaviours. We used the movie Inside Out. We drew around some P1s for the outline of the characters. We added behaviour words to them.                                                                         019 016

That’s all from us. See you next week….

P6/7 Week of Fun Learning

Leave a comment

This week’s blog below is written by Niomi and Laurie-Anne (P6/7). Each week we will have a ‘Class Blogger of the Week’ and two pupils will write the blog. It is the responsibility of the whole class to record our learning during the course of the week by taking photos on the class ipads and making notes on what they would like to be put on the class blog for the ‘Bloggers’ to upload each Friday. 

This week we have been working on Learning Pits and our growth mindset as well as mistakes.

We have also been working on Number Talks where we don’t put our hands up instead we used hand signals that we have been taught.We had to think of as many strategies as we can to solve Maths problems.

Our topic this term is Human Rights and Democracy and our class novel is the Hunger Games.

It is very fun learning in P6/7. We are having a great time. We all are adapting to our new classroom and teachers.

One more thing we have to say is our new whole school Health topic is called Emotion Works. We can’t wait!

Go P6 Go!

P6 had great fun today carrying out their interval training! Meeting Liam Davie was really inspirational too.

Here we are in action, we were quite exhausted by the time we had finished 7 minutes later – perhaps we need to work on our fitness levels?

It was a big thumbs up from all of us!
