The King’s Crown

Today in our writing lesson we listened to the story ‘The Queen’s Hat’ by Steve Arnold.

We enjoyed the story and then talked about how Queen Elizabeth sadly passed away and now we have a King. We then became illustrators to design a front cover for our new story that we will write over the next three weeks. Everyone worked hard and showed resilience, even when faced with challenges.

Crew Robson presents – The King’s Crown!

Practising our map reading skills

To hook into our new expedition we used our map reading skills to complete a task around the school grounds. At each checkpoint there was a word which together formed a sentence. This sentences was a clue about our new Summer Term expedition.

Huge shoutout to Penelope, Aaliyah and Lily-Marie who were the first group to unscramble the sentence. Great work girls!

Meeting Paddington

To hook into our new expedition we have been learning about Paddington Bear. We learnt that he came on a boat from darkest Peru to London and the family he left behind. We also learnt he loved marmalade sandwiches so we couldn’t resist trying some!


R.E

In R.E today Crew Robson learnt and talked about how to be a good samaritan. They could sit in a circle and discuss what a good samaritan is. Here is some of their work.

Labelling Body Parts

In our expedition lesson we took our learning outside into the sunshine.

We used chalk to draw around each other and then labelled as many body parts as we could. It was lovely to see everyone so engaged. Well done crew!

A new week, a new book!

To hook us into our new book we used our sense of touch. Mrs Robson allowed us to put our hand into the box and see what we could feel. This was our first clue to our new book. We came up with lots of adjectives to describe what we felt.


Next we completed a jigsaw of the front cover to reveal the name of the new book. We used our prediction skills and made links to books we already knew such as Little Red Riding Hood.

Finally we had another guess about what might be in the mystery box. We opened it up to reveal a turnip. Aimee in the kitchen had kindly cooked some for us to try too!
