Primary 6/7 have had a fantastic first week back with lots of great learning activities in class. On Friday morning, we discussed our week in school and decided that we would like to share these thoughts about our learning this week:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We enjoyed making our competition entries for the Gala Day programme competition because of the freedom we were given to choose different ideas around the movie theme
• We enjoyed our activity with Mrs Denholm to design our own sustainable school
• We enjoyed continuing to prepare for our first class debate this week as we considered what our arguments are going to be and how to argue back to the other team’s arguments
• We enjoyed our writing activity as we were able to write about our own opinions of the class novel that we read last term
• We had lots of fun in PE this week
• We had great fun in buddying as we played games and got to spend time with our buddies again after the break

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning)

• Some of us felt that writing was a wee bit tricky as it was tempting to summarise the story from the book when we had to make sure we were including our judgement about the book and how the author had written it
• A few of us found the work with train and flight timetables a little tricky in Maths
• Some of us found the Gala Day poster difficult because it was hard to choose which movie images to use

Our lead learners were Paige, Rose, Lily and Oscar.  The had decided on the following three targets for the class; to be responsible outside in the playground, not to make silly noises in class and to be respectful to all adults in school. They identified lots of children in class meeting the targets that they set, which is great news. Well done for a great week, P6/7.
