Last Wednesday, we invited our relatives and friends to our class to see our showcase of learning on our IDL context of “Travelling Ted visits Mid Calder”, to help us celebrate the school’s 40th birthday this year.

Through our IDL context we have developed our sense of place as well as our understanding of our local environment. We have studied and located the key features and landmarks of Mid Calder and discussed the different journeys we make. We have also explored the stories of “We are going on a bear hunt” by Micahel Rosen and “Leaf man” by Louis Ehlert, utilizing our outdoor environment and things we have collected to enhance our learning.

We were all very excited to share our learning with our families and friends and we were able to confidently say what we had learned over the past 6 weeks. Thank you to everyone who was able to visit and well done to the children in P1W!
