Yesterday afternoon, we braved the cold to go on an adventure. We had to use a series of instructions to guide us around the playground where we found some clues. When we returned to class, we worked together to figure out what they said. When we had finished, we discovered that the clues made up the guiding question.
Our expedition working wall is an important feature in our classroom as it shows the journey of our learning. Therefore I needed some help to add some pieces to it. We’d planned to make some art using the the rubbish we’d recycled on Monday, however, we wondered how hygienic this would be. Although, we weren’t able to use the rubbish we collected we’d done a good thing by tidying up our environment.
Today in crew we explored how we are kept safe at school, this is something we revisit daily. The children created an anchor chart to show all the ways we keep safe. We also looked at risks in everyday life such as crossing the road or helping our grown ups in the home.
In Crew Godley, we were challenged to become human springs! We had to work with a partner and lean against their outstretched arms. We then had to push back and forth several times in a comfortable, rhythmic manner. Once we had mastered it with our partner, we then changed partners and tried to see if we could get into the same rhythm.
We found it quite tricky to begin with, but we showed great resilience and tried really hard to work with different people in our crew to get it right!
This afternoon, Crew Shields set off with their litter pickers to start cleaning up our environment. We collected lots of rubbish which will be put to use in our next expedition task. What this space…
Crew MW absolutely love going to the library, even more so when we decide to get comfy on the cushions and read a festive story with the lights off!
We followed a festive mindful meditation tutorial.
We enjoy taking time to regulate by following mindful meditation videos. It makes us feel nice and calm and ready to learn first thing on a Monday morning. 😌
I made a little snowman,
I made him just like that!
The sun came out and melted him,
And now my snowman’s flat!
Today we celebrated the start of our Christmas festivities with a good old fashioned party! From musical bumps to pass the parcel, we had a wonderful time 🎊
