Bob Marley Sing Along

Crew Robson loved watching the Bob Marley Sing-a-Long in Crew this morning.

There were lots of children who were eager to join choir in KS2 next year and participate in Young Voices next year!

Do you want to make a pizza?

Yesterday the children in Crew Robson practiced their chopping, grating and spreading skills to make their very own pitta pizzas. They really impressed me with how they worked together to support each other. It was lovely to see them enjoying their fruits of their labour too! Great work Crew!

Our Guitar Lessons !

Today in Crew Wilkinson, we had an awesome guitar lesson, and we’re excited to share. Some students loved learning a new chord, while others enjoyed strumming along to a song.It was exciting to hear music come to life!

Equivalent Fraction Families

To bring our unit on fractions to a close, we have been exploring equivalent fractions and identifying as many families as we can. To begin with, we created our own fractions walls and then used these to follow the lines to help identify which fractions were the same (of equal value). We then realised that we could use our times table knowledge to support with this and created some fraction flowers using this skill.

Book Talk and Increasing Fluency

This week, we have been focusing on a new book by Marcus Rashford called “You Can Do It”. We started the week by looking at the front cover and the blurb and pulling apart as much information as we could from what we could see and read. This helped us to understand a little bit more about what the book was about before we began to read any of it. Lots of us thought it might be a book about football due to the fact he is such a famous footballer. However, after reading the blurb, we were surprised to discover that it is actually about injustice and the injustices he has experienced first hand. Following this, we have pulled out a summary section on the first chapter and identified tricky vocabulary, making sure we can read all of these words and understand what they mean to support with our fluency. We also looked at our automaticity words and challenged a partner to read these automatically in a random order. We have then taken part in echo reading alongside our teacher and had another go at our words per minute challenge to see how close we are to the year 6 expected standard of 185 words per minute.
