French – Crew Hamill and Crew Thompson

3rd October 2023Sarah Mcglone

This week we have been looking at how we greet people at different times of the day (good day, good evening, good night). Once we had mastered our pronunciation and practised matching pictures with the correct greeting, we tested our new knowledge by playing a game of corners. There were pictures up around the classroom showing different activities at different times of the day. Miss McGlone said a greeting and we had to decide which picture matched the time of day for that greeting. We then moved to that picture and waited to see if we had chosen correctly!

Crew MW’s weekly library visit 📚

2nd October 2023A Welburn

Crew MW took our weekly trip to the library last Wednesday. We enjoyed our milk and snack while we sat and read a story called ‘There’s a dragon in your book!’ by Tom Fletcher. We then voted between two stories to bring back to our classroom to read at story time the next day. We loved our trip to the library! 📚

Science continues in MI

2nd October 2023Stacey McClare

Today we looked at and discussed the life cycle of a plant. We used a video clip to get us going then worked in mini crews on an activity to assess our knowledge of the clip. We then had a go at acting out the life cycle using the terms we had just looked at in mini crews. We then created a class anchor chart to show this. We have some great actors in MI!

Writing

Today, we have been writing PP4 of our writing. We have had to spend time practicing how to compose sentences that make sense as well as how to use the chotting to support our writing.

Text marking / Book talk

2nd October 2023Ruth Shields

During our last 2 lessons in reading, we have been familiarising ourselves with text marking. This is a skill we are teaching and guiding the children with as it is important children can text mark in a way that will support their understanding.
This is a skill we will continue to develop during the Autumn term with the aim that children will be more independent in the Spring term.
