Crew Haddock really enjoyed their cojo crew challenge.
This morning in XP Outdoors, we planted our sunflowers outside in bigger pots to that they could grow big and strong in the bright sunshine! We carefully took our plants out of their small plant pots, made a small hole in the compost and patted our sunflowers firmly into their new pot. After that, we watered them to make sure they had had a good drink, and now we will keep our fingers crossed that they carry on growing!
Crew Thompson love the opportunity to go out and litter pick on our school grounds. We enjoying cleaning our school field and looking after the environment.
Wow! Mick really put us to the test today as we completed several different challenges. We had to work as a team to complete the variety of strength and fitness activities. We worked super hard to complete each activity but found carrying the tyre above our heads quite tricky.
In challenge crew, we had to use nonverbal ways of communication to give clues to others about the number on the card. Some ways we did this were by clapping or jumping. We then had to group ourselves into whether our number was low, middle or high. After a few goes we got really good at it.
This morning for Challenge Crew we worked in small groups to complete ‘The Group Hop’ challenge. This required us to use our coordination and communication skills. We worked in small groups and began by standing in a straight line, we then placed our right hand on the shoulder of the person in front of us and gave them our left leg/ankle to hold. We then had to see how far we could hop along together without toppling over! We then challenged ourselves to see who could hop the farthest! It was great fun but we definitely encountered a few hurdles! During our debrief we realised that communication was vital and that we had to work as a team to be successful.
In crew we did cojo
This morning in Crew we discussed having a positive attitude even when things are tricky. We talked about how we all find different things hard and for some of us this is drawing. We had a go and following a how to draw video and practiced showing perseverance!
Crew Robson showed great communication and team work to complete their crew challenge this morning. Well done everyone!
Crew Godley had a great time trying to build the tallest tower using only paper and cellotape. We worked in groups to find ways to make our towers tall but also sturdy so that they could stand up on their own.
