I am so proud of Autumn for finishing her non-fiction write, and accurately copying in out onto special paper. Well done for using the handwriting lines to ensure beautiful presentation! You have included lots of facts about hedgehogs and made suggestions on how we can help them ✍️
On Thursday we were lucky enough to take two teams to the South Yorkshire cricket competition in Barnsley. Both teams did really well and made us proud to be from Carcroft School🙌🏻 We even got a tasty ice cream in the lunch break🍦Well Done everybody – you smashed it!!🤩🥳
Today, our KS1 children enjoyed a fantastic football-themed lunch as we celebrated England’s first game taking place tonight!
The dining hall was filled with excitement as pupils tucked into a special menu inspired by the beautiful game. Football anthems played throughout lunchtime, creating a fun and lively atmosphere, and many of the children couldn’t resist getting up for a dance with their friends. There was lots of singing, smiling and excitement as everyone got into the football spirit.
It was wonderful to see so many happy faces enjoying the occasion together. We hope everyone enjoys watching the match tonight and joins us in cheering on England.
Come on England!
Crew Ramsay have worked hard to create a ‘Guess The Baby’ gallery in our hall! We did a gallery walk where we looked at the baby pictures and observed the babies to see if any felt familiar. Then we filled in a class sheet guessing which baby is which child. We noticed that although we grow and change, some things stay the same such as eye shape and distinguishing features. We were also shocked at how different some of us looked as we had changed a LOT!
Today, Crew McLoughlin stepped into the role of a newspaper journalist to create bold and exciting headlines. The Crew showed great creativity and understanding of the novel. This engaging activity helped develop reporting and summarising skills while bringing the story to life in a fun and imaginative way. Well done, Crew, for producing eye-catching headlines worthy of the front page!
Our classroom was full of focused mathematicians, as the children took on a fast-paced angle challenge. The children worked hard against a two-minute timer to correctly identify and label acute, obtuse and right angles.To prove and check their answers, they used a geometry tool; the corner-tester to check for a perfect right angle.
This week in P.E, our year 3 children practice their core athletics skills. They have been focusing on three fundamentals: running, jumping and throwing.
Today, Crew Godley explored the concept of transformation through the chrysalis stage of a butterfly’s life cycle. We learned that, although a chrysalis appears still on the outside, significant internal change is taking place. We linked this idea to their own transition to secondary school.
We discussed how change is not always visible and that feeling unsettled or unsure is a normal part of growth. We then sorted visible changes and internal feelings associated with moving to a new school, before reflecting on the positive habits they want to develop as they prepare for this next stage.
