Reading in the library!

Crew Thompson love visiting the library every Friday afternoon! We love changing our old book and having a browse for a new book to read at home! When we have chosen our new book (or carrying on with the book we currently have) we love to find a comfy spot to read before heading back to our crew. We love Library Fridays!!📚💕

First aid training

This morning, Crew Thompson attended first aid training where we learnt all about choking and burns. We learnt about the two different types of choking and what we had to do when someone was choking. We practiced giving 5 back slaps and 5 abdominal thrusts to the choking person. We also learnt how we should treat burns and who we should call in an emergency.

Adapting song/music

Yesterday, we continued with unpicking poetry (a song) and worked as mini crews to rewrite it and adapt the verses. We want to be able to generate as many ideas as possible so that when we write our own poetry for the final product, we have lots of background knowledge to pull from. Some great collaboration and communication demonstrated within mini crews.

World Oceans Day! 🌊🌎🐠🦈

Today, in LKS2 as part of Crew, we celebrated World Oceans Day! We began by watching the clip below to learn all about what it is, why it is so important that we protect our oceans and how we can help.

We then shared what we had learnt from the clip and created a class ‘chotting’ sheet. We then used this to create our own ‘World Oceans Day!’ posters to inform others around school how we can protect the Worlds oceans. As you can see, we had lots of great suggestions such as, buy less plastic, put your litter in the bin, recycle, and use reusable bottles, straws and cup cases! We hope that people will consider our oceans more as a result!
