Primary 6/7 have had a fantastic week with lots exciting learning and more visitors coming into school to inspire us and help us with our learning. On Friday morning, we discussed our learning throughout the week and decided that we would like to share these reflections about our learning:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We enjoyed our Scottish dancing again with the S6 sports leaders as we continue to prepare for our Burns Supper
• We enjoyed writing our own poems using Scots language
• We all engaged brilliantly with the Edinburgh University students who came to work with us in Computing Science with the Microbits
• We really enjoyed the Pupil Voice sessions on Friday morning as we discussed the importance of equality and diversity in school and helped the younger learners in our school community take part in the discussions
• We enjoyed lots of our learning in Maths this week, especially working with dragon data on Friday morning with Mr Hamilton and the Maths lessons that had with Mrs Donald and Mrs Egan

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

• Some of us felt that we need to keep working hard on learning about our famous Scottish people to make more progress with our projects
• A few of us felt that learning and remembering the dance steps for our Scottish social dancing was a bit tricky
• Some of us are finding it a bit tricky to learn our Scottish poem for the recitals in class next week
• We know that we need to keep working hard on practising singing our Scottish songs for the Burns Supper next week

Our lead learners were Alieu, Olivia, Lily and Jessica.  They were looking for examples of the following targets that they set for the class; be resilient in football in PE, don’t talk back to the teacher and don’t be silly.  Our lead learners saw lots of the children in class meeting those targets, which is great news. Well done for a wonderful week, P6/7. Looking forward to another fin packed week next week!
