Another amazing day for the new Cocoon I!!

By Alishia Pearson2nd June 2020

I am so lucky to be working this such a lovely little group of children! They have had another great day today using Chromebooks.  We were able to finish off our music learning from yesterday and then  use our knowledge to build a one page information site based on their chosen Roman instrument. After that, we got stuck into some coding and game making on Scratch – they have all made a wonderful, working chase game with added sounds and scoring!

I’m so proud of how hard they have worked on their games and how they all were curious Cleo’s and stick-ability Stans.

I feel however overall Brendan has to be our learning legend today as he went even further by adding in text and even a background change in his game as well as supporting and guiding a friend in class on how to ‘de-bugg’ a problem he was facing. Grate job Brendan.

Here is a snap shot of their learning today.

Fabulous first day back!

By Alishia Pearson1st June 2020

We all started the day a little uncertain but by the end we all left happy and smiling 😊. I’m so pleased and proud at how well my little crew have dealt with today and even more please with the amazing work they have produced! Massive well done!

We’ve looked at our new school norms and created our own posters, compared some music over time and looked into Roman instruments in more detail! Great job, I am going to award you all the learning legends! What can do Colin’s we have had today!

 

Class 12’s learning legends …..

By Alishia Pearson14th May 2020

Learning legends today are to all in class 12 who have completed their expedition learning today – I have honestly been blow away by their efforts and response.

Today, we were learning about search engines, how information is found, ranked and then organised for us, all in under a second of pressing enter on what we want to search.  I would have loved to have taught this lesson in the classroom and played lots of practical games to demonstrate how this process works – but thy have not let me down at all!

They have all had to be a Stickability Stan and Exploring Eddies today with this – it was very trick to learn and understand by their selves but they have done the most awesome job!

Here is a small selection of a range of responses from today’s learning!

Learning Legends today in class 12

By Alishia Pearson11th May 2020

There has been so much fantastic learning today all round in class 12 and I am very proud of you all.  However, I have decided that the learning postcard today will go to both Ollie and Alex for their expedition learning.

They have been a true Can-do-Colin in their learning today about the importance of E-safety and keeping personal information safe and ‘personal’ for a good reason.  They have reflected brilliantly at the end and demonstrated how they intend to stay safe online.

For anyone who would like to watch this E-safety video which is what my class have used today then feel free and share with friends and family.

More VE day fun!

By Alishia Pearson11th May 2020

Brendan and his family have been very busy! They look like they always have so much fun and explore so much together – it is so lovely to see and read about!

I thought I would share the family’s VE day fun with you, afternoon tea, 1940s dress, bunting making, dancing, music, making their own accessories, camouflage play and so much more I’m sure!

Great stuff – so much fun!
