Writing Boot Camp

Here we are with Mrs Wright practising Robot Arms; one of the many spelling tools we have in our tool box to help us with our writing.

On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week we have been spending most of our day taking part in Writing Boot Camp. It sounds like very hard work but we have been having so much fun! We have talked about what makes a good writer, what tools we can use to help us with our writing and what recipes we should follow to cook up a terrific piece of writing!

The Key Competencies

This term we are focusing on the Key Competency of participating and contributing. First we talked about Gregory Smith the remarkable boy who has made a significant contribution to helping children in need around the world. Next we talked about brilliant Bridgette who is setting up a book swap initiative based on the Lilliput Libraries. The book swap will be open Thursday and Friday. What a great contribution Bridgette! We then talked about the wonderful contribution our parents make to Outram School. We are very excited that the new recipe book will be launched on Sunday. Then we talked about Aleisha Cotton and Kelsey Hoggard and the wonderful contribution they made to some schools in Samoa. We looked at examples around Outram School where we have seen children participating and contributing. This week we looked at the contribution that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is making.
