An interesting week thinking about optical illusions, shape and geometric patterns. Some of these make my head hurt 😁.

I have been exploring role play in P67 this term. It is eye opening to see the range of different learning that can take place and the discussion that it provokes. I learn so much from the children's interactions.

We have been exploring what travel might look like in the future. We enjoyed hearing some of the debate at the Cop26 conference. We chose how to create our design and we will present them to the class next week.

We had a go at the Inspire Learning 12 Days of Inspire. Today it was an advent calendar on Keynote. We enjoyed learning the different ways we could change the appearance of a slide. We are proud of our results! PhiliphaughCS 🎄.

We went on a Mini-Figure Adventure today. So many skills in evidence during our various challenges. We also remembered to look after our Mini-Figure at all times!

Day 2 of #InspireChristmas and we were making Spot the Differences puzzles on Sketches School. Some were Christmas themed and others were very amusing! A great end to our day 🎄. PhiliphaughCS Inspire Learning

Day 3 of #InspireChristmas was these beautiful Christmas lights on Sketches School. A couple of children had forgotten their IPads but were still keen to give it a go! 🎄 Inspire Learning PhiliphaughCS

Some wonderful snowflakes today using the symmetry tool on Sketches School. We particularly liked changing the backgrounds and making our patterns white. Thanks #InspireChristmas ❄️. PhiliphaughCS

This image generated a lot of discussion during our Number Talks session today. We all got the same right answer but we all did it in a different way. #numbertalks

Lovely afternoon exploring Mauldsheugh Wood Community Wildlife Project and discussing the wonderful learning opportunities for our school. Lots of exciting times ahead. Thank you for having us 🙂.

We started the week using our IPads to take photographs featuring toys outside. We then used the Book Creator App to turn our photos into comic strips. We had so much fun sharing them! PhiliphaughCS Inspire Learning

We had a fantastic afternoon starting to learn about coding with Inspire Learning at PhiliphaughCS. Grateful to have the support of Roddy Graham to guide us through the process and give us feedback on our awesome dance moves. Looking forward to next week! 😁

Lots of great new learning today with Inspire Learning's Live Lesson on Coding. This was my first time coding and the class made sure I was staying on track. Thank you to all involved. PhiliphaughCS

A fantastic final day coding live with Inspire Learning! Clear, step by step instructions helped us make a game for younger children to play. Thanks to all involved. PhiliphaughCS

P6/7 used our new construction toys to build 3D shapes, explored the properties of each shape and used our IPads to mark up the pictures. We will share our work on the Apple TV tomorrow. PhiliphaughCS Inspire Learning

We've been enjoying shape puzzles for our Number Talks this week in P6/7. We decided to make our own and then challenged each other to solve them. We really enjoyed trying to work out the answers 🤔😁. PhiliphaughCS

Philiphaugh CS had a fantastic day at the #inspirelearningfestival. Thank you so much to all who organised it. We especially liked the dancing robots and the Sphero football. Inspire Learning SBC Education

Look how much I learned on Duolingo in 2023! How did you do? #Duolingo365

Day 2 of #inspirechristmas at PhiliphaughCS. Fun with the Microbits. A few children even managed to add a Christmas song into their snowflake display 🙉🤣. Inspire Learning

P5/6 at PhiliphaughCS showed real resilience when completing their #inspirechristmas snowglobes. We listened really carefully to make sure we got each step correct. I think they are wonderful 😊.
