Fun in Football!
This morning in Nursery we had P.E, today we played football!
We listened to Coach and tried really hard to control the ball and take turns.
Our P.E Superstar this week was Lily-Rose! Coach was so impressed with how she dribbled the ball, well done!
Star Bakers and Decoration Makers
Crew Nursery have been making birthday cakes, chocolate crispy buns and party decorations as part of their expeditionary learning this week.
Before making the cakes and crispy buns, the children explored the ingredients and described how they felt. The children liked the texture of the sugar best! After discussing the recipe, the children listened carefully to the adults instructions and measured the ingredients out carefully before whisking and mixing them together. The children showed good turn-taking skills throughout the activity!

THE START OF OUR NURSERY JOURNEY
Crew Nursery have had a fantastic start to their school journey! The children have been Working Hard, Getting Smart and Being Kind for a whole month now and the nursery teachers could not be prouder of them!
Crew MI 1.10.21
It has been a really busy week in Crew MI this week as we have been writing our next plot point in our Harry Potter writing. We have had to work really hard to to get smart with our grammar- trying our best to include subordinating conjunctions to extend our sentences. We are so excited to read their writing as their vocabulary and ideas get better each week. Watch out next week for some pics!!
In reading, we are still enjoying our book and are getting better at finding the answers in the text. We have even tried this week to annotate the story as we read so we are making sure that we are reading for meaning and can pick out key bits in the story.
In maths, we have been getting better at our place value of umbers up to millions and even solved puzzles with Roman numerals. In our magic maths sessions, we have been practising subtraction- we are getting so much better at this!
In our PE lessons this week, we have been practising our football skills; having more control over the ball when dribbling and even practising our shooting.
Next week we need continue to work on being kind to one another and making sure we’re listening to the instructions.
Have a lovely weekend 🙂
This weeks Learning Legends
Today I got to celebrate with all of our super Learning Legends. What a fantastic group of young people… 🤩
This week in Crew Tucker… 1/10/2021
This week has been another busy one for Crew Tucker and the children have continued to make us laugh with their jokes and witty comments and to make us proud with how keen they are to Work Hard, Get Smart and Be Kind.
In writing we have been continuing our Viking narratives, retelling the terror of the Viking raid in Lindisfarne. The children have worked hard to include a range of literary features – fronted adverbials (always followed by a comma!), conjunctions, similes and ambitious vocabulary (words that will make us say, “Wow!”).
In maths we have been learning how to add using the column method. It’s safe to say we found this a little tricky to begin with, but by using concrete resources and pictures to reinforce our understanding the children were able to persevere and make progress. We will be continuing to work on this next week as adding larger numbers is so important in Key Stage Two.
Our HOWLs this week have dropped a little, but this is not because we have not been trying hard; it is because we are getting better at being honest and critiquing ourselves. Yes, we want our HOWLs to be as high as possible, but only if these are a true reflection of how we are doing. This is so important if we are going to strive to be the best versions of ourselves.
Keep up the hard work Crew Tucker and have a great weekend!
TWTP – LKS2 (1.10.21)
It’s been another busy week in LKS2. We’ve worked really hard in Expedition, but the highlight this week has been our Maths. We’ve loved trying to beat Siri and gain better skills along the way! Check out our video below and have a happy weekend Crew LKS! 😆
Crew Building in Crew Welburn
This week we’ve really focussed on kindness and building a positive crew in our classroom. We’ve shared words of kindness with each other every morning, and we’ve worked on our communication skills. We had lots of fun working out how to pass a ball around the crew without using our hands to build up our teamwork skills at the beginning of the week, and then today, we have worked together to build our own obstacle course in COJO. We even challenged our communication skills by blindfolding two of our crew members so that we had to give clear, careful instructions so that they could pass the balls along the course.
