We had the best time at The Rowan Tree in Armadale. The staff were so kind to us & the hot chocolates were tasty! A special thanks to Eilidh & the manager for making our trip special. @DedridgePC #lifeskills

Practicing life skills in Rowan class & for our big trip to Edinburgh for a theatre show! 🎭 @dedridgeps

We read ‘The Dot’ by Peter Reynolds and decided we could be artists from just one dot too! Lots of fun drawing under the table! @dedridgeps

Rowan class have been enjoying using the #makeymakey boards to play music and games! They can connect the circuit independently now too!👏 @dedridgeps

This absolute star from @dedridgeps learned how to sew on buttons and do a running stitch today! Mr Willy Wonka is taking shape! @WL_STEM @lou_pollock #sewing #textiles

@charliersmith1 Keep wearing that crown! 👑 One day at a time xx Here is Ralph, this is a rare min of the day he isn’t bounding about!

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

Mr Willy Wonka’s visit caused up a stir! Since led to writing, a very detailed smart board drawing, what’s inside the box activity and maybe some chocolate eating 🙊🤫 @dedridgeps

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

Making rainbows, building towers and creating chocolate slime! #charlieandthechocolatefactory @dedridgeps #science #STEAM

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

Mr Wonka’s challenge of the day! I was amazed by the children’s resilience to not give up with this, it was tough! Changing state from liquid - solid - liquid again! @dedridgeps #charlieandthechocolatefactory #science #finemotor #creativity

@kmaryfrench @mels_hami12 @VisitScotland @SeeWestLothian @itsourlandscape @dedridgeps We had to visit the park too! @dedridgeps

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

@kmaryfrench @mels_hami12 @VisitScotland @SeeWestLothian @itsourlandscape @dedridgeps Our class visited on Friday and there was lots of conversation of animal life cycles, nocturnal animals, reflections, state of matter with the icey weather and changing seasons signs! Lucky to have it so close by @dedridgeps

Decorating our classroom and displaying the books we created on @BookCreatorApp #dedridgedoesinteriordesign @WL_STEM @dedridgeps

Today I came back to my desk and found some Gruffalo crumble that Rowan class @dedridgeps had left for me. Yummy! 👍🏻 #DedridgeDoesItDifferently #TakingOurLearningOverTheRainbow

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

After reading the story ‘Mixed’ - the children wanted to mix their own paints. We talked about warm and cold colours - where could our book take us next 🤔 @dedridgeps

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

We really enjoyed the book ‘Mixed: A colourful story’ in class. We used https://t.co/lYbNWgKYpg to draw our own mixers and brought them to life using the Chatterkid app. @dedridgeps #weallmatter #dedridgedoesdiversity

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]

What a special year. I’m going to miss this bunch lots. I’m a lucky teacher! @dedridgeps

[Louise Pollock @lou_pollock_]
