Cool to be kind was the theme of the week and this year’s focus was CHOOSE RESPECT!! Here is how we linked it to our lessons:<\/p>\n

Wordboost – We used a powerpoint about ‘Cool to be kind’ to select our BOOST words for the week.<\/p>\n

Writing – We were inspired by this poem, ‘If’, to think about friendships and what we would want a friend to do for us. Check out our Twitter page to see our X Factor Poetry Plenary.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Art – We had to represent the word ‘Respect’ visually in any way we chose for an upper area display.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Groupwork – We worked in teams to make posters about what we had learned about the ‘Science of Happiness’. We have been trying out some of the suggestions.<\/p>\n\n

RE – We researched Saints who were great examples of showing kindness and respect to others.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Assembly – The House and Vice Captains from our class were involved in planning, preparing and delivering an assembly about this week’s theme. They did a great job and had a captive audience!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Pupil Voice:<\/p>\n

Brooke – I liked doing the poem of friendship as I liked trying to use rhyming words.<\/p>\n

Harley\u00a0 – I liked adding and subtracting decimals this week.<\/p>\n

Ambra – We did a friendship poem I liked it but it was challenging.<\/p>\n

Lauren – In school this week we have been doing Respect pictures and in PE we have been working on our fitness.<\/p>\n

Aria – We did some artwork for the word Respect.<\/p>\n

Bea – There was a Sumdog competition and our class came 16th out of all the West Lothian classes who had entered. Matt in our class came 9th overall in West Lothian. Well done Matt!<\/p>\n

Teacher voice:<\/p>\n

A fantastic week for all in P6\/7. It was great to meet so many parents this week to discuss the progress of all the children. I am very proud of them all!!<\/p>\n

A special mention to all who participated in the Sumdog challenge for homework – great teamwork and dedication to get on the leaderboard. It was great to also have one of our pupils, Matt, in the top 1o!!!!<\/p>\n

Another special mention to Ailie who was nominated for Hot Chocolate Friday as she had prepared so well for her JRSO presentation at assembly.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Finally, I received an email this evening to inform me that Bea and Toni have made it into the top 20 in the West Lothian Name a Gritter competition. I have put details of how to vote for them on the school app and I have also emailed everyone in our class. All the teachers have been posting their votes too for them!!! Good luck girls!!!!!<\/p>\n

Have a great weekend everyone!<\/p>\n
