We have had a terrific Tuesday in Crew Wilson!

Highlight of the Day:

This afternoon we have been in the festive spirit and worked collaboratively to create some reindeer food, just in time for Christmas. We had to carefully mix oats, seeds and magic dust together to make our recipe, then tied each bag with a sparkly pipe-cleaner. We even wrote a little card to who we were going to give it to! We can’t wait to scatter it all on our own garden on Christmas Eve to feed Santa’s reindeer!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: This Howl goes to Mia today for sticking to her pledge from Crew and demonstrating her positive attitude towards her learning, well done Mia!

Get Smart: This Howl goes to Daisy and Dalton today! Daisy for her fantastic sentence in writing and Dalton for his brilliant maths work, well done guys!

Be Kind: This Howl goes to Perrie for working alongside her friends so well and always being considerate, well done Perrie!

Howl Average:

3.2 – A slight dip but some absences have brought our score down. We will be making more pledges in crew tomorrow so we can work hard to get smart and get those fab fours!

A very busy day!

Highlight of the day

Today we have had a very different day. The children have done so well when waiting for adults and during transition times. They have shown that all the work we have done to be a crew is paying off!

Work hard: Lylah and Bronwyn 7👏

Get smart: Harriet 👏

Be kind: Heartley 👏

Our HOWL average was 2.8 today. We can do better tomorrow Crew Welburn.

A very busy start to the last week. We have been editing  our stories and dividing by 3. My favourite part was seeing the children busily creating a draft of their finished product, before creating different parts of their polished piece. I am sure we will really enjoy sharing these.

Today’s HoWL average 3.2

Our HoWL target is: 3.1

How can we develop: Follow instructions carefully to learn new skills and get smart

Homework.

Last week 50% of our crew read all week and completed their homework. These lucky crew mates had a lucky dip on Thursday.

Some great work today though the highlight has to have been during expedition and the ideas we came up with when designing our own stained glass windows.  We were able to assess our own work against a criteria and even managed to peer-assess with consideration and good feedback.

Today’s HoWL average is: 3.0

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

I wonder if…

I wonder if we can really take pride in our work and think about our presentation during our learning, especially in maths.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Get Smart HoWL Hero today is Tyler!

Some great work from Tyler today and even more impressive is his time management to ensure that he was able to complete it all.  Considering that we’ve only just started to focus on our 7 times tables, it’s clear that Tyler is ready for the challenge!

My star moment today was seeing the children make their DT prototype. The children really concentrated on what they needed to do to achieve a good example. 👌👍😎

Average is: 2.9

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.3!

How can we develop this tomorrow?

We seem to have a lot to say this week! Make sure you save your chatting for break and lunch times!

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Be Smart hero today is Mia!😁✨👌👍

Mia has really impressed Miss Smith and I today in math, she has answered all of her questions independently and got on with her work quickly and efficiently. Well done Mia, we are so proud of you!

Happy Monday everyone! Here is day 9 of nursery advent calendar of songs. This was one of our favourites to sing about yummy mince pies 😍 Messiah was the perfect Santa, rubbing his tummy saying ‘mmm that’s just right’, well done Messiah!

Seems as the children have been extra good and on the nice list, they had another visit from Santa today 🎅 We listened for the reindeers on the roof and we heard Santa’s bell 🔔✨ We sang some Christmas songs with Santa and got to have our photo taken before getting a special treat. Not long now until the big day!

Hope you enjoy today’s song, come back tomorrow for day 10.

Well today in crew we had a new addition. A new member to join Crew Kent. The children were being really kind and ensured our new starter was well looked after and all shared personal information about themselves during our crew circle. This may have overwhelmed our new crew member, as the rest of the crew shared lots! 😂🥰

They then made me burst with pride as they performed their final dance piece for the school website. This is to follow soon!

They have had real resilience this half term during their dance sessions and have worked so hard to produce a beautiful final dance piece. Here is a sneak peek of their final performance. 🕺💃

Well done Crew Kent. 😁
