Learning together
Another busy morning in the Nurture Room. Snakes and Ladders is always a favourite 😊.
Mrs Doolan helped to set up the farm, while Miss Sutherland challenged the boys to a game of SNAP. She lost!!
It was all ‘fun learning’ 😆.
Nurture is fun!
Space Time…
Today we developed our knowledge of the stars. We know that the stars create patterns called Constellations.
Look up into the night sky …..can you spot The Big Dipper?
How many stars join together to form The Little Dipper?
2016 Christmas Nativity and concert …
Its amazing! Well done everyone.
Nativity!
Meeting an author during book week!
At the weekend, the end of book week, Miss Robb traveled through to Glasgow to a book signing by Tom Fletcher.
Tom Fletcher is 1/4 of the band McFly (which Miss Robb is a fan of) but he has also wrote a few children’s books with his band mate Dougie Poynter. P2/3 enjoyed reading ‘The Dinosaur that pooped a planet!”.
However Tom Fletcher has just published his first children’s novel ‘The Christmasaurus’. P2/3 are very excited to start reading the story and Tom said he hopes we enjoy it! Im sure we will!
AAL team to the rescue!
Mrs Conaghan was very kind to come into P2/3 class and read them a story about ‘Scaredy Squirrel’ on EPIC.
P2/3 loved the story and wanted to be able to use EPIC to find more stories about scaredy squirrel. Very kindly the AAL team from P4/5 came in to show us how to use EPIC on the ipads. They helped us to set up our profiles, choose what books we liked and how to read them.
Thank you AAL team!
Growth Mindset Feedback
P2/3 created squirrel pictures using Autumn leaves from outside for their tails. We were really proud of our squirrels and so we took them to show Mrs Conaghan and P4/5.
We then took part in a feedback session about what we did really well with our squirrels and what we could try to do next time. Using their own feedback, some pupils in P4/5 then went on to try and make their own squirrel pictures also using leaves and came to show us in P2/3.
All squirrels now share our Growth Mindset feedback tree which is in Miss Robb’s P2/3 class.
Dont they look great!
Teamwork
This morning, we worked together to complete jigsaws. It was fun. We helped each other by pointing out ‘the hair colour’ and finding the ‘right bit’.
We shared the lego and did a great job, building 2 friends who help each other.
