In running club we decided to measure our progress by completing a good old fashioned bleep test, something we found difficult in the beginning! However, with determination and some good breathing techniques the children reached level 9 🏃♂️🏃♂️ an amazing achievement 🥳
With all the wet weather we have been experiencing, we have had lots of bugs crawling around our outdoor area. We have REALLY enjoyed digging for worms, rescuing them from puddles and seeing how many worms we can find!
Another week where we have been able to celebrate lots more Reading Champions in school! It was great to see so many children stood up in Achievers Assembly this week being celebrated for their awesome reading at home. It was lovely to see the beaming smiles on children’s faces and to listen to them talk about how proud they felt. Thank you again to those adults at home who are taking the time to listen to their child/ren read very night.
This week we also celebrated the Crews who collectively read the most at home last week. Crew Marsh won it for KS1 and Crew MI for KS2.
Well done to all of our Reading Champions and their amazing adults at home!
During our expedition lessons this week, we have completed our first draft of Martin Luther King. When we finished we hd a gallery walk to allow us to appreciate the hard work everyone had put in to their art work. We then discussed critique and how we could make them even better next time. Although they were a first draft, I’m extremely proud of what they have produced and it was lovely hearing them express how they were proud of themselves during check out. Keep an eye out for the next draft…
In xp outdoors this week we have been making water caterpillars. the children really enjoyed this and watching them wiggle when placed in the water.
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.
In Crew Pashley, this week for our Crew Challenge children were given different pictures that they then had to describe to their partner. All children enjoyed describing it to their partners and seeing what drawings they ended up creating.
