Mental health week continues….
Today we explored how bullying can affect our mental health. We looked at different scenarios and discussed these as a crew. We conferred that bullying happens over a long period of time, continuously. We looked at the scenarios which led to discussions around how to treat each other to ensure we all felt mentally happy and safe.
– Koa suggested that by using kind words to our friends that everyone would be happy to come to school.
– Thomas said that if he saw unkind behaviour that he would talk to a trusted adult to help him.
– Evie said that if someone is bullied they might feel upset and lonely.
– Riley suggested that if we saw a friend being left out we could be kind to them and invite them to play a game.
I am so proud of how caring Crew Godley are!
Mental Health continues in MI
Reflecting on all the work we have done this week on mental health. We came up with different words for mental health.
Mindful Eating
In crew this week we have being looking at mental health. Today the children looked at food and had to take the time to appreciate each bite. They had some fruit and had to think about how it looked, taste, feel, hear, see an smell. so we used our senses to find these out
Beautiful Work
Today I was absolutely blown away by the beautiful work Crew Godley produced in writing. We wrote our second plot point of our story, All Afloat Noah’s Boat. Noah was getting soaked by the rain and had to usher all the animals onto the boat, it wasn’t an easy task!
Who would you find on Noah’s Ark ⚓️
Today we continued with our collage skills to create our Art work in the style of Henri Matisse, we created animals which Noah invited onto his ark. We thought carefully about the colours and shape of the materials we used to create some beautiful pieces! We were very proud!
Arrays everywhere!
This week in maths we have been exploring arrays to support us with our multiplication and division, it was a little tricky but with some perseverance we finally cracked it! We worked hard to use what we already know to support our learning, our practical resource came in very handy to solve some problems.
Exploring Henri Matisse
This week we have been artists, exploring the collage techniques of a Henri Matisse, a French artist.
Firstly, we had a gallery walk and shared our notices and wonders about his work. We collected ideas and created a giraffe in preparation for our final piece where we will collage different animals to place in Noah’s Ark! We thought carefully about how how we could manipulate materials to create shapes.
