Assembly 18th June – Celebrate!!

Good Morning! So I thought we would celebrate the last House Card Winners of this school year 2020 – 2021 on FANTASTIC FRIDAY!

These names might be the winners this week but let’s remember that every week we have celebrated achievements at Royal Mile Primary School – Well done to everyone who has stayed on green, earned housepoints and received stickers and postcards. Well done to the JASS AWARD winners, whether they have achieved a full award or a just one part (you can finish next year) Well done all of us – through all the changes and challenges of this school year we have remembered to look after ourselves and each other.

Next week we will be celebrating and sharing our special memories from this year! What a year it has been – and we should all feel really, really proud of ourselves and each other!

So to get us started here are the House Card Winners https://youtu.be/cwKcXEJohG8

In Outdoor Learning this week P4 all groups visited Holyrood Park to play games and develop skills in giving and following directions. We played ‘Secret Stone’ where we worked together as a team and developed and tested strategies. We played ‘Find my Tree’ with eyes shut then played again using direction vocabulary. We introduced quarter turns and used them with prior knowledge of clockwise and anticlockwise.

Group 1 are the final group to explore and use the terms Agree, Build and Challenge for the talking and listening game ‘Would you Rather’. We used sentence stems to scaffold the discussion. For example:

Agree: ‘The reason I agree with……is because…..’

Build: In addition to ……..’s point, I’d like to add……….’

Challenge: I disagree with…… because……..’
