Class bubbles has definitely reduced the poorer behaviour but are we just burying our heads and not dealing with the problems? Staff in the playground further enhancing relationships, focused activities in the form of football, netball, climbing frames etc so kids can burn off steam rather than wander around aimlessly at times. I actually wonder if extended breaks would be a change idea we could try. I feel if we get our playground right it was majorly reduce the issues it brings back into classes. Could the staff outdoors be part of the school day? Obviously 15 min breaks and a lunch is required so need heads together to think of a way around this.

I think we should be getting pupils to contact local companies for donations of pallets or wood, so that during lunch we could have a class making a wee den/shelter house for each class, children do need areas to gather and feel like it is theirs to take care of.

I attended the Goblin twilight around Science and have 3 excellent power points; science, art and persuasive writing that look at embedding the goblin project as an IDL.  The science element talks about the 6 Simple Machines, introducing children to the notion of forces and understanding how things work e.g a seesaw, a pulley, a ramp etc.  Children could be educated around these simple machines to foster curiosity around the loose parts play and attempt to make things as opposed to sitting in a tyre etc.
