Excellent Expeditionary Expert Experience! 🧍🏠🌊🌏
Today, Mrs Adams delivered an excellent presentation to all of our LKS2 pupils about her experience of flooding in 2007 when she lived in Bentley. Prior to today’s session we have been learning about flooding in our Expedition lessons as well as The Write Stuff lessons where we are writing a narrative based on the picture book, ‘FLOOD’. Before Mrs Adams shared her story with us, each crew generated a list of questions that we would like to ask to know more, such as: Did you have to leave your home? What impact did it have on your life? How did it affect the area where you lived? Did you lose anything in the flood? etc. We were all blown away with the thoughtful questions that pupils shared. Mrs Adams did a great job of answering all of our questions as well as providing us with lots of extra details and facts. Thank you so much for your time Mrs Adams! 💕 The children got lots from it and it is sure going to help with our Expedition and writing learning next week!
Crew Pashley Planting Peas
Today, we finished planting our pea seeds in our pots, including setting up our plant diaries to keep track of their progress. We used what we learnt during the Spring term about planting seeds to make sure they were planted properly, so they could grow. We discussed the best place in the classroom to get the most sunlight.
Celebrating Success! 🥇🎉👏🏆
This week in LKS2 we had lots of successes to celebrate in our LKS2 Community Meeting! We had three pupils who all achieved Learning Legend this week for being super mathematicians and blowing us all away with their recent arithmetic test scores!
We also celebrated all of those pupils who have been reading at home the most in each Crew, it was AMAZING to see so many pupils in Crew Thompson that had read 5 times in a week! I wonder if some others might be able to do this next week and if we can have more pupils to celebrate?! 📚
In addition to those pupils who read at home regularly we also chose a ‘Star Reader’ from each crew! This week the reasons were for, making great progress in reading fluency, participating lots during reading sessions and for excellent comprehension skills during assessment week. These pupils also got to have a special breakfast with Mrs Atherton today! I wonder who our ‘Star Readers’ will be next week?
Finally, we celebrated some extra special achievements. These boys have been working incredibly hard out of school! One for participating in a football tournament and the other for writing his own story linked to our Expeditionary learning! Fab work boys! Well done! 👏
XP outdoors
This week in xp outdoors the children have been making a nature tree. They had cut out cardboard with just the trunk of a tree in and they had to collect flowers to make their own tree.
Oliver Twist
The children really enjoyed watching the show. M&M Productions were amazing!
Non-Uniform day 6th July 2023
On Thursday 6th July we will be holding a non-uniform day to support our Summer Fayre. We ask that the children bring in a chocolate donation or a bottle (which will go on our infamous bottle stall – this can range from bubble bath, water, fruit juices or a bottle of fizz) rather than the usual fee.
Thank you for your continued support.
