This week, we have been baking and decorating some cupcakes for Red Nose Day, and while doing this, we had discussions around fundraising and how baking and selling was one of the many ways we could raise money. We used visuals and videos to explain what Comic Relief is, and the children completed tasks based on money and feelings.
We learned about logos, designed one and painted it before sending them off to Comms to be made into a Podcast Logo. The winning entry was Alyssa with her beautiful, symmetric Butterfly! Her pointillism technique was amazing just like everyone else’s logos in Crew Ramsay. Here is our beautiful work…
We loved presenting our learning to families and friends yesterday and the children took such pride in their product. We hope our parents and carers were just as proud and loved listening to our podcast. We are proud to say we now have our own Carcroft Spotify channel for future expeditions across school!
Today, Harlow, Hunter and Rose did a fantastic job reading stories out loud to their crew. Each of them chose a story they were excited about and took turns sharing it with everyone.
Harlow read with great confidence and expression, helping to bring the story to life for the listeners. Hunter did a brilliant job reading clearly and taking his time with tricky words so the story flowed nicely. Rose also read beautifully, using a strong, clear voice and showing great focus as she shared her story.
It was wonderful to see them all being brave and proud to read in front of their crew. Everyone listened carefully and enjoyed the different stories that were shared.
Well done, Harlow, Hunter and Rose – you were fantastic storytellers today! 🌟
Today we had a visit from Miss Burrows from XPD who spoke to us about religions. We asked her questions about religions in Doncaster and then she showed us some artefacts from her department. We loved learning from Miss Burrows and hope she comes again soon!
Today we have been using the Base Ten to multiply by ten and then record the abstract equations! We were able to see the commutativity of multiplication. We also explored the division facts associated with these multiplication facts.
In today’s handwriting lesson we looked at ‘the misfits’. I was blown away with how the children showed great listening skills during the input and then showcased their beautiful work by producing this handwriting. They all worked extremely hard and this really does show! Great work Crew Ramsey keep it up 🙂
We watched a video of Dorothy seeing colour for the first time in Oz and then created some inspired drawings. The children were given autonomy to create whatever they wanted with the theme, ‘the colours of Oz.’ Here they are enjoying some creative literary time!
We have been learning about the 2 times tables using bricks to visualise what this looks like. We noticed doubles! We then wrote out the abstract form and noticed the commutativity of multiplication… check us out!
For our first day back we enjoyed an extended crew session in Crew Ramsay. We spoke about the beautiful Work in our class last half term and celebrated these with the new unveiling of our Beautiful Work display. These children have worked on their pledges and showcased real growth and perseverance! We then enjoyed a challenge in groups playing The Leaning Tower of Feet-za! This reminded us to reflect on our work/challenges and strategise for improvement, always. Great work guys!
