We had a fantastic Careers Marketplace this afternoon to end our DYW week. We can’t thank all our volunteers enough. The children loved going round and interviewing people about their jobs. #dyw#metaskills#dywweek
Recently finished Gavin’s most recent book - Life Will See You Know.
I highly recommend it to everyone and anyone! A brilliant way to look at some many different things in today’s complex world. Very funny but also emotional at the same time. Go read it!!
P1-4 - Book Week Scotland.
Our book for the week is Me and My Fear by Francesca Sanna.
Today we used it as a stimulus to learn about rights. We discussed the difference between needs and wants and how about the ‘right to play’ is.
Today we had a wonderful Outdoor Day! We started off creating natural pictures of animals, using resources we found around the school ground. One group even made a whole scene.
Huge thank you to every single primary school in South Ayrshire. A pleasure to be able to speak to all your teachers today. And of course great to be back in the shire and see so many familiar faces 🫶
We are super proud of Mrs Hollick @hazleheadacad, winner of the Aberdeen City Council Diversity and Inclusion Award for her work with @hzh_alliance and @LGBTYS!!!
@BloomingEdu@EduSparkWorld@padlet I love the compliments board idea. 🥰 Going to pick a different pupil each Monday morning and have all their classmates add a compliment to them. They will then get a print out at the end to remember how their classmates feel about them.
After listening to @thespeakmans with @VickyPattison, I loved their secret of turning a negative into a positive using the phrase ‘but, luckily’. I spoke to my class about it today and they all created their own positive statements that are usually negative. #growthmindset
@thespeakmans@VickyPattison It fitted in so nicely with a course of work we are doing and the kids loved it! We had great fun coming up with lots of great examples. Of course you can share it. 🥰
