MI finish their newspaper reports

Some beaming faces today in MI 🙂 Children completed their final draft of their newspaper reports and felt such pride when this was finished. Such fantastic writing! Even though we found the piece extremely challenging, MI showed such determination and resilience throughout the piece.

Cereal boxes needed

After Easter, Crew Shields will be completing an activity that requires cereal boxes. Could we please ask that you keep and send in any empty cereal boxes for us? We will need them for the first week back after Easter.

Thank you.

Miss Shields

Arithmetic progression in MI

Today children in MI completed an arithmetic paper. We have been working so hard on all areas of arithmetic ensuring we are thinking about the methods we need to use. I am blown away by the results today and scores are reflecting the hard work MI are putting in. It is so lovely to see children’s faces when they have shown improvements and it is also fantastic to see children applying all the skills that they have been taught. I am so proud of you all, keep up the hard work 🙂

Sketching techniques

Yesterday, we explored a range of sketching pencils and how they create a different effect when using sketching techniques. When we’d had an opportunity to use each of the pencils, we had a go at applying this to a small section of Edgar Degas artwork.
