Great fun had by all this morning as practiced our timetables. Children were able to play board games that allowed them to use their timetable knowledge but also demonstrate their be kind howl. So lovely seeing the children working together while also supporting each other to be successful.

A carousel of maths in MI
Before we started transition week, we got to work on some times tables practise. We took part in a carousel of activities including bingo with Mrs McClare, rapid recall of all our times tables, times tables rockstar work and a number card game. We worked against a timer, pushing ourselves whilst concentrating on each task. Great work Crew MI 🙂
Transition – Crew Mcloughlin 22/23
We have had a lovely first day settling in to Crew Mcloughlin🥰. We focused on our be kind HoWLs and how we can be the best version of ourselves. We also generated character traits that we want to see in our crew. We learnt that sometimes we may need to help each other along the way to ensure we present these, empower each other and by doing this we will create the best crew in school🤩.
What a great first day the children have had! I cannot wait for the rest of the week now.
Transition – New Crew Shields
It has been a lovely day in Crew Shields. We have spent some time reminding ourselves of the expectations which most children had remembered from Year 3. This led us into watching a short video where we inferred it was about bullying and the importance of being inclusive. We generated a range of qualities that we look for as a crew and as a good person and then children created a jigsaw piece with their chosen quality. It was great seeing the children working collaboratively and I’m looking forward to the rest of this week.

Crew MI 7.7.22 Pancakes…
We’ve been cooking again today. Today, we really enjoyed making healthy pancakes. We worked in groups and took it in turns to measure and mix the ingredients. When the mixture was ready, we each made our own pancake and had it with fruit and yoghurt. Delicious!
Food labels – Can we identify the healthy options?
As part of our learning, we have explored the labels on food packaging. We have learned about the traffic light colouring which helps us make healthier options when buying food. We had a go at ranking the foods from most healthy to least healthy. Some children were shocked by some foods they though were okay but they are actually really high in sugar.
Massive shoutout to Millie, who has brought us in loads of food packaging (pretty much a weeks worth of packaging) and to the other children who contributed some food packets. I love how Crew Shields are always willing and eager to bring in resources from home to support the learning in class while also taking the pressure off myself to find everything. This is most definitely what crew is all about! 💖
Pancakes – the end of our cooking journey
Over this week we have cooked a starter, main and some healthy dessert options. Today, we have enjoyed some pancakes as we discussed that everything should be eaten in moderation so we’ve had pancakes with maple syrup and raspberries.
As with everything else we’ve baked this week, we’ve had a gluten free pancakes today. We actually preferred the gluten free option. It has really surprised us that in most cases we have enjoyed the gluten free version.
