LAST CHRISTMAS POST!!

Back on Track!

It's been very quiet on the Blog recently ..... but we're back!

We're also at http://carronshore.edublogs.org/ - the class helped to choose the template. What do you think?

The videos didn't travel well and a lot of other things need fixing ..... we're working on it!

It would also be nice to stay here where we know how thing work! :-)


...... And our reply to our Dingwall friends will be posted soon (we got it wrong today!!)

Proverbs

We've been learning about 'Proverbs' in class. Proverbs are well-known, wise sayings. Many are centuries old and are handed down from generation to generation. We made cartoon pictures to illustrate the proverb meanings.

Famous .... by default!

Mr Barrett from Priestsic6 Primary helped us put a great 'Google Earth' link on our blog when we first set it up ... and now he's been shortlisted for an Edublog Award for the best wiki! (I've now cast my vote)

I noticed that Carronshore Primary is mentioned on his wikispace (I'd asked him for help to put the link on our Blog and the link is still there .... so we're famous!).

The sad thing is that I ended up taking the link off our Blog because it was blocked at school and the children were never able to see it. I've resored it again and have put a link to it in the margin on the right as well ..... we'll need to ask the 'powers that be' to unblock it so that the pupils can enjoy it!!

The Titanic - A Report

Yesterday in class, we learned about two types of accounts - first hand and reporter accounts. We read the two examples in our textbook then we found a partner. One partner was the person who was there and the other was the reporter. We made a 'Radio Broadcast'.

Try this link for a News Broadcast!

More to follow when we've found out more about the disaster!!

Idioms

We learned about idioms in class this week and made cartoon examples to show the meanings. Laura helped us to put them on the Blog. We used 'Bubbleshare' to display them. Laura helps in our class each week. We like Laura!

Poems and Reports!

Doesn't it make you feel good when you think you've been heard? Thank you Thomas! You explain our poem criteria very well! Link

Marc, thank you for your Report on our school ... First to complete it (and I agree that it is a great school to be in!) I'm really looking forward to reading the other finished reports!

Thank you too, to Laura, for all her help and hard work today ( see you next week) ... we'll work on getting the other 'Bubbleshare' pics displayed before your return!!
