Aberdeen Clan have been learning about the history and recent changes to our local area. We enjoyed sharing our knowledge of East Calder landmarks and places of interest before plotting them on a map. Next, we will be using historical evidence to explore different types of housing in the area and compare the lives of people in the past with our own.
Dundee Clan performed their clan assembly, ‘Save the Rainforest’, today to the whole school and to our families. Dundee clan have had a fantastic time learning all about the rainforest. We have explored where rainforests are in the world, why they are so important, what the issues are affecting them and what we can do to support them. We have loved exploring the rainforest and are sad that it is time to move on to new learning. Some of the children are going to continue spreading the word and learn more, and have started a club together. We hope everyone enjoyed our assembly today. We enjoyed preparing it and performing it for everyone. I wonder if our song is still stuck in your head! We can’t stop singing it!
Aberdeen Clan had a wonderful time celebrating together at our Christmas party. We had fun playing games, dancing, and sharing a snack dressed in our party clothes!
Dundee clan’s trip to Dynamic Earth was fantastic! We enjoyed a tour around the centre finding out about our amazing planet. We loved the 4D cinema, the planetarium and the rainforest section. There was so much to explore. We were also able to show off our knowledge about the rainforest in the rainforest workshop, showing the leader what we had already learnt in school. Mrs Scobie was very impressed with everything that we had remembered.
We have absolutely loved working on our enterprise project creating Christmas craft to sell to other clans. We decided on the crafts we wanted to make and sell, working together in groups (like little hard-working elves) to complete as many items as we could, alongside creating a persuasive poster and price list. We have worked on skills which will support us as we journey through our lives such as teamwork, creativity, focus, concentration, resilience and perseverance. We had a great time selling our crafts and used our skills of persuasion during the sale.
Dundee Clan had a fantastic time at their Christmas party. We created a playlist together with all of our favourite party tunes and loved dancing to them. We played musical bumps and corners which was great fun. We enjoyed some food and a drink together in the café which was well-deserved after all that dancing. We are well and truly in the Christmas mood.
Aberdeen Clan had a fantastic time on our recent visit to Dynamic Earth. We especially enjoyed the planetarium, 4D experience, and sharing our rainforest knowledge with an expert during our workshop.
Aberdeen Clan have been learning to recognise money and its value. After discussing the difference between needs and wants, we worked in groups to create our own shops. We had to consider how best to market our products including different pricing strategies. After some window shopping, we were set a budget and had to work out if we had enough money to buy the items on our wish list! We worked out how much more money we would need or if we would receive any change.
Hello Folks,
In Stirling Clan we had the best time on our trip to Dynamic Earth. Some of the clan highlights where our visit to the Planetarium and touching an ice berg. Stirling clan done a fantatstic job recalling all their learning about the rainforest and really impressed the expert in our workshop.
We have also loved getting outside, even if it is really chilly, to develop our fundemental skills in football. Having finished basketball we are learning that there are a lot of skills in team work and communication that are the same. We have been exploring successful shooting, accurate passing and controlled dribbling in our sessions and mini games.
