Sell It

For writing for the last couple of weeks of term, Miss McLeod's and Miss Bannan's writing groups have been working on a 'Sell It'. Sell it, is where we had to choose an item that nobody would necessarily want to buy, and write a script to persuade viewers to buy the item then film an advertisement. When we were filming we learned that we had to keep persevering through this as it takes more than one filming session to get it right!

Here are some of the completed advertisements.

Play- Challenge yourself and have a go!

One of our school People Powers is 'Play'. We have been learning about showing 'Play' through challenging ourselves and having a go.

In one of our Power Time lessons we had lots of balloon challenges that our teachers set for us and we used collaboration to get the balloons from one side of the room to the other (without them touching the ground).

We also sat in a circle and challenged ourselves to pass a ballon around the circle in different ways. We found it easiest to pass it around with our elbows because we had more control, but hardest to use our chins because our chins and necks weren't big enough to hold onto the balloon.

We definitely had lots of fun learning about showing 'Play' by challenging ourselves and having a go! We try hard to show 'Play' in our learning as well. 

When do you challenge yourself?
