The children used their super skills to make their own polar bears using white clay.
Keeping Safe 🏫 🏠
Today in crew we explored how we are kept safe at school, this is something we revisit daily. The children created an anchor chart to show all the ways we keep safe. We also looked at risks in everyday life such as crossing the road or helping our grown ups in the home.
Young Voices 2024 🎤
We have arrived for our rehearsal at Sheffield Arena for Young Voices 2024!
French – Crew Shields 🇫🇷👖👚
We have been looking at items of clothing and identifying any cognates or near cognates with the translations. We then discussed the different nouns for clothing items and how the determiner changes depending on whether it is masculine, feminine or plural. We applied our new knowledge by completing a written task that required us to think about the rules of the French language and whether the determiners we had chosen were appropriate for the noun. We worked really hard and the discussions we had in our groups were really helpful.
French – Crew Hamill, Crew Thompson and Crew Mcloughlin 🇫🇷🖼🎄
We have used our French knowledge of shape, colour and size to complete a number of different activities to help to embed our learning.
Colour splat – Who can splat the correct colour in the fastest time?
Listen carefully – Who can identify the correct colour and hold up the corresponding block? Can you listen to the sequence and create the matching tower?
Shape matching – Who can identify the correct shape AND the correct colour? Can you work as a team to be the quickest team to do this correctly?
Christmas craft – Using the shapes and colours we have looked at, can you create a Christmas image? Could you describe the shapes you used to create your image in French?
Festive library visit 🎄🎅🏼📚
Crew MW absolutely love going to the library, even more so when we decide to get comfy on the cushions and read a festive story with the lights off!

Mindful Monday 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♂️
