Happy Monday! 😁
Today has been a great first day back for Crew Elmer despite us all being very tired first thing this morning and wanting to be back in bed! 💤
Star moment of the day: ⭐
Today’s star moment has got to be our Expedition lesson this afternoon. I was blown away with the children’s enthusiasm to learn about Boudicca and Julius Caesar as part of our Expedition learning on ‘Why remember the Romans’. The children loved reading the interesting facts and watching the different video clips including the Horrible History songs. I was also impressed with how well the children took notes. 😁👏⭐👍🙌 The children are going to use these notes and the knowledge that they gained from today’s lesson to help them to create a fact file on either Boudicca or Julius Caesar. Keep an eye on our blog because I don’t think that you will want to miss these!
Todays HoWL average is: 3.1
A great score to start this half term! Well done Crew Elmer! 🙌⭐🤩
This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0
How can we develop this tomorrow?
Crew Elmer need to make sure that they keep up the good work and remember their HoWLs at all times of the school day.
Today’s HoWL Hero:
Today’s HoWL Hero was Laila. Laila was praised by a few crew members for working hard and for being kind at lunchtime outside on the playground. I chose Laila for HoWL hero for working hard in maths this morning. Sometimes Laila struggles with maths, however this morning she just grasped the concept being taught really well and demonstrated an excellent understanding of division. After being shown the ‘bus stop method’ once she picked it up and was able to apply this technique to answer a range of division calculations independently. She also got on to the reasoning and problem solving questions and completed them all! She was incredibly proud of herself and so she should be! Well done Laila! 👏⭐
