Crew MI have carried on with their non chronological reports today and are really thinking about their sentence structure. We are trying hard to use a relative clause, brackets and dashes. Our confidence is starting to improve and we are producing some great writing.
We have also worked hard in our maths lesson today where we have looked at line graphs. We did find this challenging however we really thought about what the question was asking us and managed to solve the problems!
We have really tried to focus on our HoWL score this week in all 3 areas (work hard, get smart and be kind). Our crew have been determined to make sure we are making the right choices to show what beautiful work we can produce when we are focused. Slight disappointment this week when we reflected on our HoWLS as some crew members have found it tricky this week to keep on top of those 3’s. However, I would like to praise those children in Crew Godley who have achieved the golden 4’s this week! Keep up the great work I am so proud of you 😊
We have continued our work in art, by continuing to focus on the work of Quentin Blake, we have critiqued our work this week and I was blown away by the maturity of the children, they had some very thought notices, praises and wonders.
Over the next week, we will be creating our own heroes in the style of Quentin Blake. We can’t wait! We are ever so excited to be lucky enough to have a visit from Natasha Clarke. She is a talented local artist, who is going to help the crews create portraits of famous heroes as part of our finished product. You can see some of her amazing artwork here.
In maths, we have been investigating 10’s, identifying ten more and ten less. Using our equipment has really helped us and the crew were eager to extend this in their morning tasks 🔟
Have a great weekend everyone 😊
What a great week we have had in KS1 celebrating maths week. We’ve all worked hard to produce beautiful work by challenging ourselves to complete some fantastic maths. We’ve incorporated our maths into al, aspects of the curriculum and taken part in some some great sporting activities whilst also using our number knowledge ⚽️ Keep up the great work KS1 and enjoy your weekend ☺️

It’s been a really busy day in Crew Gerrard. We’ve enjoyed our extra 15 minutes of break time that we earned on our Howl-opoly spin. I know we loved spending more time out doors! 😃
This afternoon we then worked on consolidating our knowledge of column method, with addition and subtraction. This was great fun and it was great to see our Crew work collaboratively to help others gain more confidence and ‘get smart’.
Enjoy the long weekend Crew G and see you on Tuesday for another busy week! 😆
Crew Mcloughlin showing off their reading skills!
This week we have been showing great perseverance by solving long division with the coin method. Some children even coached to help everyone in Crew to get smart! Teamwork makes the dream work🤩
What a great Expedition lesson we had this afternoon, as we continued to learn about human and physical features as part of Case Study 2: Geography. We looked at London to see how it differed from Kabul, Afghanistan (in our previous lesson). We used maps and images of London to see what features we could spot.
I was really pleased with the hard work I saw and how calmly we participated with popcorn and think pair share, during our active lesson. Keep up the good work Crew Gerrard! 😆
What a busy day in Crew MI! We started off the day with a team building activity in crew where children had to work together to transport balloons around the room without dropping them! We showed such determination doing this.
We have also started our non chronological report by writing our introduction today. We found this quite challenging at first however we supported each other and are happy with the work we have produced. We used our fix it time well and acted on feedback effectively.
See you all tomorrow!
We would just like to thankyou 🙏 to everyone involved in ensuring our Walkathon event was a roaring success. We have made a great start towards our £1500 target.
Currently, our total stands at £840 👏, with some sponsorship still to arrive in school. Please could any remaining sponsorship be sent into school this week.
We would like to praise the determination shown by all the children as they worked hard to complete their laps.
Super crew work by all!
