How could you SWAY?

Leave a comment

Calling all Williamston Learners … Nursery to P7!

Have you heard of SWAY?

How could you use it?

As a learner too… I have loved learning to use Sway. But, I’ll be honest, it has taken me a little while to really like it (And a lot of exploring!). So… my Term 1 challenge for you is…

Can you use Sway? What could you use it for?

There will be a #DigiRecognition for the best class and best learner for Sway this term… could it be you?

 

Here’s a Swayhttp://<iframe width=”760px” height=”500px” src=”https://sway.office.com/s/pHiN0U8S2GAtKcbG/embed” frameborder=”0″ marginheight=”0″ marginwidth=”0″ max-width=”100%” sandbox=”allow-forms allow-modals allow-orientation-lock allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts” scrolling=”no” style=”border: none; max-width: 100%; max-height: 100vh” allowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen></iframe> to let you know how we could all use it… what do you think?

Have a GO! And – SHARE!

I can’t wait to see more.

To all of our pupils, Nursery-P7, staff and families, a huge WELCOME BACK to Williamston!

We want to extend a special welcome to our new children in the nursery and P1 and new families joining our school community too, we feel very lucky to have each and every single one of you.

All classes have been super busy these first few weeks, community building, establishing class rules and charters, recapping literacy and numeracy learning and sharing our knowledge and understanding of each other.

More information to come from classes… but for now… KEEP CHECKING TWITTER TOO for updates.

Book Week Scotland 2016

Leave a comment

We celebrated Book Week Scotland with lots of exciting activities. The focus this year was Roald Dahl. On Monday, P3 and P4 enjoyed fantastic BFG workshops delivered by One Day Creative. We enjoyed Mrs Hollands, Miss Noble and Mr Brice reading the three books shortlisted for the Scottish Children’s Book Awards over the tannoy. The overwhelming winner was “Shark in the Park on a Windy Day” by Nick Sharratt. We took part in paired reading, Authors Live events and designed a new front cover for a Roald Dahl book. We also created props from Roald Dahl books and took them along to the whole school assembly on Friday. What a wonderful way to round off a fun packed week!

Don’t our dream jars look great!
