Learning Highlights:
- Making Regulation Strategies spinning wheels. We drew 5 strategies that we can use ourselves to help us to regulate our emotions if they become unmanageable for Health and Wellbeing.
- P7 Transition task was based on Modern Studies and the danger of overfishing in Antarctica. We learned that some ships will abandon their nets which mean that fish get caught and die.
- The class did some Scottish art with a Tunnocks Teac Cake wrapper where they had to incorporate the wrapper into a Scottish themed drawing. Some chose to do the Loch Ness Monster, others did thistles and some people did Scottie dogs. They looked fantastic.
Tricky Tasks:
- In maths we were looking at the properties of different triangles and having to work out the interior angle of scalene, isosceles, equilateral and right angled triangles. This was tricky at first but once we knew that all interior angles in a triangle make up to 180 degrees, it became easier.
- For Writing we started thinking about a narrative story that we are going to plan, write, edit and publish into a class book. There is a lot to think about and keep in mind when writing these.
- In RME we started looking at Buddhism and who the Buddha was, how he became the Buddha and what it means for people around the world.
Our Lead learners this week were looking for kindness, concentration and people working hard and are very pleased with the amount of classmates spotting demonstrating these values.
