Yesterday and today we have been looking at describing who and doing. They children diod really well with this and they showed me that they are working hard.

Multiplication Fun In Crew Ramsay
We have been learning about the 2 times tables using bricks to visualise what this looks like. We noticed doubles! We then wrote out the abstract form and noticed the commutativity of multiplication… check us out!
Writing part 5
So today in writing we had to see if we could hold a sentence by remembering what the sentences said the day before. This is how we did
Writing Part 4
Today in writing they copied the sentence making sure they used a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence followed by a full stop at the end of the sentence. We made sure that we had finger spaces in between our words. In activate (do now ) we checked that we knew what who?, doing? and where? .We made sure by completing a task first before our writing.
P.e
Today in p.e they did a circuit which tried out all of their skills
The Student Becomes the Master
Today the students became the masters of their own learning during our maths consolidation lesson on statistics. They confidently explained concepts and challenged each other with thoughtful questions and worked collaboratively to solve problems. Amazing work, keep it up!
Keeping our dinner hall clean
At lunch a member of Crew Haddock decided that he wanted to clean our table ready for the next crew to have their lunch. Makes me so proud to see this
Writing part 3
In writing today the children looked at what where is. Over the past 3 days the children have looked at who?, doing? and where?
Exploring Gravity
Today, Crew Godley explored gravity, researching the famous scientist Isaac Newton, who helped us understand gravity. He discovered that gravity is a force that pulls objects towards the Earth. Gravity is always working, even though we cannot see it. We also explored the work of Galileo Galilei. His most famous observation was that two objects of the same size but slightly different mass (how much “stuff” they are made of) hit the ground at the same time, as far as he could tell, if they are dropped from the same height. This happens because the acceleration due to gravity is the same for both objects.
To test this idea, we carried out our own experiments. We dropped bottles at the same time and carefully observed what happened. The children noticed that they hit the ground together!
We then explored forces in active ways:
- Running downhill to feel the pull of gravity.
- Observing how gravity pulls us back down.
- Dropping objects at the same time to see how they fall.
- Identifying pushes and pulls in everyday movements.
Investigating parts of a computer
In Crew Robson today, we completed a scavenger hunt to solve the clues and investigate the different parts of a computer. We used our knowledge about the CPU, GPU, ROM, RAM and hard drive to solve the clues. We also used played a memory game to match the pairs of cards for the different parts of the computer!
