Gap filling in arithmetic

Today we looked at and unpicked our last arithmetic paper. After some modelling, we used our purple pen to have another go at the questions we got incorrectly. Some great partner work shown 🙂 MI you really are showing great improvements in arithmetic, keep it up!

Fun in Crew MI

It was challenge crew yesterday morning and it was too funny not to share. The children worked in pairs to take it in turns to give instructions on how to draw something. They soon realised that they had to have good communication skills and be really clear and specific with their instructions to make sure their partner knew what to draw. It was such a great activity which we call enjoyed. We were all laughing our heads off! Here are the results… some are better than others!! Have a great extended weekend.

PE – Gymnastics

Some great examples of gymnastics during PE.

Children had to jump from the bench and practice using pike, straddle, tuck, star, half turn and full turn after they jumped.

Shadows

During Science, we have been investigating how we get shadows. To achieve green standard, children had to explore if they could prove whether light travels in straight lines or not.

By the end of experiment, children were confident that light travels in straight lines and that we have shadows due to an object blocking the light source.

Y6 home learning

Over the long weekend, we are asking children to read chapter 3 and 4 of our class reading book ‘Clean Getaway’. We know they’ve been really enjoying reading this in class and would like to give them the opportunity to read for pleasure at home. Happy reading! 📖

Engaging in Expedition

Crew Welburn have started Case Study 1 in expedition this week – How can I help my body to grow? We begun by looking at the skills that we need to work on in our crews to look after our bodies, and to develop our independence. We began by talking about how we brush our teeth and why we need to look after our teeth, and then we moved on to how we can be more independent when getting dressed – especially when we are putting on our gloves! We all showed the grown ups that we can turn our jumpers the right way around and put them on with no help, zip up our coats with no help, and every single one of us had a go at putting on our gloves without needing the grown ups to do it for us! 🧤

Popular Play-dough!

We had an exciting delivery today in Crew Welburn…Some new play-dough resources had been delivered to help us with our fine motor skills so that we can make our fingers nice and strong! It was a very popular area of provision all day, and the grown ups were all really impressed with how well the children were challenging themselves to use the new tools and to use their fine motor skills, and focussing on what they were doing

February half term camp!

We have exciting news again, Active Fusion are hosting camps at out school in February half term (Monday 13th – Friday 17th February). Camps will cost £6 per day and children we need to bring their own pack lunch. The reason camps are charged this time is because Active Fusion are not receiving any funding from the government.
