Help us to stay safe! HANDS - FACE - SPACE

Crew Longley – 20.11.2020

This week the children have been learning about William Booth and the The Salvation Army as part of our expedition ‘What’s the most valuable gift you can give?’ We have been looking at research about his life and creating posters about the work of the Salvation Army. Miss Shelly has once again been blown away by the creativity shown in dance lessons. I know the children have really loved this session. In computing, we have been working hard to find and correct bugs within algorithms. However, I have been blown away the most by some of the vocabulary that is now starting to be seen in the writing sessions. We really do have some budding authors!

Today’s HoWL average is: 3.0 👍

Our Weekly HoWL target was: 2.8

How can we develop this next week?

Next week, I would like to see the children continue to learn their multiplication facts. This will really help them to get smart in lessons.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Be Smart hero today is Sophia!

I have been amazed with Sophia’s maths work this week. I am sure she will be at home telling everyone about how hard she has worked and just how smart she has been in this lesson.

Learning Legend: Kaitlynn.

Kaitlynn has been a but of a dark horse with her learning this year. She has grown in confidence across all subjects and her presentation sets the tone for others in the class.
I have really loved seeing her working hard with a partner to reach her eureka moment and go for gold. I am especially of the effort Kaitlynn has shown to get smart in maths. Well done!

Home Learning:

This week 10/16 children have achieved the target of reading 4 times (with a signature) and completing the homework tasks. These children had their lucky dip treat today. Well done!

It would be fantastic if we could get to the point where we head every child receiving a lucky dip treat!

99 Club:

I would like to say well done to the following children, who have achieved the next level of the 99 club challenge:

22 Club – Lydia B, Lydia S, Shiloh and Kayden

33 Club – Chase.
