Nativity

In today's lesson we were to create the story of the birth of Jesus in our own individual ways. We were firstly put into pairs and then chose what area of study we were going to do. The list consisted of things like, text messes age, a rap, sports commentary, animation, and many more. Firstly, we chose to do an animation about the nativity, however we found this quite difficult so Mandy introduced us to something called voki. We were very interested in this so decided to use this for our piece of work. We came up with the idea of telling the nativity story in the future from Mary's point of view which worked out well.
Once everybody had finished their work, each group had to present their work on the interactive white board to the class to show how different learning techniques are put into place.

Placement week

Placement week took place starting on the 5th of Decemeber and finishing on the 10th of Decemebr. I carried out my placement in Hirwaun Primary school and was in a year one classroom.
We were given 3 tasks to carry out throughout our placement and they where to keep a log, observation and task 3 was to chose 2 pupils and see how well or not so well they coped with a particular task. After placement I created a folder showing all the evidence and experiences i gained from the placement.
I really enjoyed this week and found myself not wanting leave and realised this is definitely the career path I want to take
