Sharing Our Learning
P7/6 loved their second outdoor learning session with Rob (and Jax!) from Kids Gone Wild. We developed our independence and problem solving skills when building a zip line and setting up hammocks. We are developing our teamworking skills and showed this when working with a partner in the bouncy net. We are also learning about assessing risk and challenging ourselves in ways we feel comfortable while staying safe.
Our school were visited by the fire service to discuss fire safety and safety on Bonfire Night. We then got to go out and have a look at the fire truck. We learned lots of important things and had a lot of fun inside the fire truck.
The children are ‘tres bien’ at speaking French in P2/1! This week Camenbear visited our classroom to help us learn how to chat to people we meet. Everybody had fun bringing lots of soft-toy friends on a make-believe aeroplane, and Pilot Camenbear flew us to France to practice our new words and phrases! We said ‘Bonjour’ and ‘comment ca va?’ to friends we met, and they answered with ‘bien merci!’ or ‘ca va mal’ before everyone said ‘au revoir’ and got back on the plane home to Longridge.
We applied our knowledge of place value to complete a range of different activities. We collaborated in groups of 3 and rotated around each station applying our knowledge of partitioning numbers, ordering numbers, using dienes to make 3 and 4 digit numbers, greater than and less than.
The children enjoyed another cooking lesson with Alex from Fauldhouse Community Development Trust and soup was on the menu this week! It was a fantastic opportunity to develop skills in chopping as well as learning how to bring a liquid to boiling.
