Digital Learning & DYW Week – ‘The Apprentice’ Challenge

What were we learning?

To create a solution for a design challenge.

How would we know if we were successful?

  • We would be able to work as a team to share ideas and make decisions fairly.
  • We would be able to make sketches of our ideas.
  • We would be able to use digital technology to create them.

What did we do?

We were challenged to create a new character for a computer game. We sketched our ideas on our own first, then worked as a group to pick the best parts of each person’s plan. We then used the ‘Cartoonify’ website to practise creating our characters digitally. When we were happy, we worked with Miss McLaughlin to finish and save them. We voted as a class to pick the two teams who would represent us in the ‘Apprentice’ challenge and they did really well at Friday’s assembly.

Everyone did an amazing job – check below to see all of the different characters we created!

 

Primary 2… You’re HIRED!

Until next time…

Science & Digital Learning Week

What were we learning?

We were learning:

  • About how the Earth gets daytime and night-time
  • How long it takes for the Earth to spin.
  • How long it takes for the Earth to orbit the Sun.
  • How long it takes the Moon to orbit the Earth.

How would we know if we were successful?

  • We would be able to present this information in the form of a film/iMovie.

What did we do?

We used papier mache to make models of the Sun, Moon and Earth. Then, we worked in groups to plan the different jobs we would have for the film. We practised our script with our group and our models and then Miss McLaughlin filmed us.

Watch our videos below. Did we include all the right information?

Check in with us next week to see what we are learning!

Until next time…

Pumphie Pals – Have your say!

At our Pumphie Pals session this morning we used How Good is our School to create key questions to help us reflect on our year. We then used this time to answer the questions reflecting on what went well and how we could be even better.

This information will be collated along with our staff and parent/ carers views to help form our priorities for next session.

What were we learning?

New songs about things like forgiveness, friendship and differences.

How will we know if we were successful?

  • We can listen carefully to the song instructions.
  • We can sing in a loud, clear voice.
  • We can perform the actions.

What did we do?

Chloe and Glyn have been working with us all week! We learned lots of different songs (‘I’m so Glad’, ‘Never Give Up’, ‘Bullies ain’t Big’, ‘Hey, Hey, I’m OK!’ and ‘Let’s all be Friends!’). These songs gave us lots of different messages, such as to be kind to others, to be forgiving, that it’s good to be us and to keep trying. They try to makes us more confident. Every day, there was a different challenge, including the ‘Chubby Bunny’ challenge and the Rap Battle wih Mrs Campbell and Miss Mulhern. Yesterday, we got to be like real rockstars and record our own CD! Next week, we even get to dress up and star in our own concert! We hope to see you there!

Check in with us next week to see what we are learning!

Until next time…

You will have an opportunity to see some of the learning which your child has been involved in this session and to help them to set targets to improve and progress.

FLT is a great chance to spend time sharing learning with your child, talking about their progress and next steps and understanding more of what they are learning before parent appointments – any member of the family is welcome.

Your child will shortly receive a slip in their school bag, please complete the slip  and return to school so we know who to expect on the day.

Hello little ones! Just posting to give you a little update on Molly!

We visited the doctor on Friday afternoon as she was still feeling unwell. The doctor checked her over and asked us to describe her symptoms:

  • sore throat
  • aches in her legs and arms
  • fever
  • headache
  • sore stomach
  • not feeling hungry

For now, the doctor has prescribed Molly lots of rest and to keep drinking water. If she doesn’t feel better in a few days, she might have to take medicine to help.

Molly is looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow, but we will have to keep a special eye on her!

See you then!
Miss M 🙂
