Sharing our expedition in reception

We loved having the opportunity to welcome our parents into the classroom this afternoon, and to share our learning journey so far with them! Our children spoke about their expedition, ‘We’re on the move!’ to their parents and shared everything they have learnt so far. The children were really proud of their learning and loved having the opportunity to show this off to their parents 🚗

Sharing our Expeditionary learning in LKS2 🌋⛰🌧🌍📖

This afternoon we welcomed lots of our grown ups into school to show them our current extraordinary expedition work, ‘Earth Shattering Events’, ‘What happens when nature strikes?’. We enjoyed sharing the work that we completed during Hook Week (making a volcano, earthquake simulation, walking through water and Earth Day celebrations!), as well as the Science (rocks and soils) and Geography (mountains) coverage from Case Study One.

We also got the opportunity to share our fabulous writing including our Lava recount and our broadcasting scripts.

Thank you to all of the grown ups (and newborn babies!) who came to share their child/rens learning this afternoon. It was lovely to see how proud the children were of the beautiful work that they have been producing.

We look forward to sharing the rest of our learning with you all in July at our COL Event on Wednesday 12th July! We hope to see you then! 😁

Feature Finding! 🔍🕵📖📝✏

This morning as part of our Expedition/The Write Stuff learning in Crew FE, we looked at the features of scripts. These included, a title, setting the scene, a list of people, a list of props, stage directions, a new line for a new speaker and the names written on the left, as well as a range of punctuation including brackets, colons and bullet points. We also discussed the audience and purpose of scripts. Next week, we are going to be writing our own broadcasting script informing others of the catastrophic earthquakes that occurred in Syria and Turkey earlier this year as part of our Expeditionary learning, ‘Earth Shattering Events’, ‘What happens when nature strikes?’. We will also hopefully be performing and recording these using a green screen at the end of the week, and hope to share these as part of our COL event later in the term! 📽

From cloud watchers to weather reporters

We have extended our knowledge from watching and identifying clouds, to making a weather report of our own. We did some research online, watched our local weather reports and then made a draft copy. We then critiqued our draft and made changes to create a final piece which some of us enjoyed filming. I think we may have some future weather reporters in Crew Robson ☀️❄️🌈☔️

King Charles has lost his crown 👑

We have been writing about the journey that King Charles took around London to find his missing crown. The children wrote sentences for each step of the journey and then we decided to put together a collection of videos to showcase our final piece! We’re so glad that the King found his crown and as you can see, he’s very happy too! 👑

Awesome Authors! 🌟📝

Last week in Crew FE I was blown away with the fabulous writing that the children were producing! They have shown that they are able to use expanded noun phrases with prepositions, onomatopoeia and time fronted adverbials! Great work Crew FE! I am excited to share this with your grown ups next Wednesday afternoon and I am sure you are too!

Stay and engage!

What a lovely afternoon we had with our parents in Reception! We really appreciate everyone coming in and working with us to support their children in junk modelling vehicles to enhance our environment! As usual, the children loved having you in school and they now have some fantastic skills to junk model independently in provision 🚗

Easter Fun in Crew Welburn!

Crew Welburn have had lots of fun taking part in their Easter activities this week! From our brilliant bonnet parade and chick baskets, to the bouncy castle this afternoon, we’ve all had such a fantastic end to our week!

We hope you all have a lovely Easter break 🐥
