We experienced what it felt like to entertain other people just like Bob did on the moon. We then practised our teaching skills to explain to our partner how to draw the moon.

Excellent Expeditionary Expert Experience! 🧍🏠🌊🌏
Today, Mrs Adams delivered an excellent presentation to all of our LKS2 pupils about her experience of flooding in 2007 when she lived in Bentley. Prior to today’s session we have been learning about flooding in our Expedition lessons as well as The Write Stuff lessons where we are writing a narrative based on the picture book, ‘FLOOD’. Before Mrs Adams shared her story with us, each crew generated a list of questions that we would like to ask to know more, such as: Did you have to leave your home? What impact did it have on your life? How did it affect the area where you lived? Did you lose anything in the flood? etc. We were all blown away with the thoughtful questions that pupils shared. Mrs Adams did a great job of answering all of our questions as well as providing us with lots of extra details and facts. Thank you so much for your time Mrs Adams! 💕 The children got lots from it and it is sure going to help with our Expedition and writing learning next week!
Design an alien 👽
In our book The Man on the Moon Bob thinks there’s no such thing as aliens, but we know different! Here is what we think they might look like! I can’t wait to read your character descriptions!
Poetry
Today, Crew Shields have been practicing reading their poems aloud in preparation for them being recorded on a Monday. We have each other critique and explained the importance of speaking in a clear voice, at a reasonable pace and adding some expression in. We’ll have more time to practice to each other and in front of the class so when Monday comes, we’ll be ready to smash it.
Bob had his lunch on the moon 🥪🌕
At 12pm Bob/Crew Marsh enjoyed their lunch on the moon. We had fruit, a jam sandwich and milk. Yummy!
LKS2 Celebration of Learning Event 🌍⛰🧑🎤🎶📖
During Hook Week, as part of The Write Stuff, all of the pupils in LKS2 wrote an invite to invite all family members to our COL event. We then created a shared invite and sent this to our COMMS Team at XP alongside our ‘rasterbator’ creation. Last week, we received our final products to hand out to our grown ups! We were super impressed with them! Hopefully your child has given you one and we would love to see you all on Wednesday 12th July at 2pm.
Planning – writing
Once we had finished assessments, it was time to get cracking with our writing in preparation for the final product.
Today, we critiqued a model text and gave praises, notices and wonders before starting to plan out what we’ll write about in each stanza.
We’re looking forward to writing the poems and then sharing them with the community.
Super letter formation! 🖊
Arya has really been enjoying her phonics lessons and has been using role play to work on her letter formation. She has been teaching the ‘m’ lesson and did a beautiful representation of Maisie, mountain, mountain – you can even spot Maisie stood next to the two mountains! Excellent work Arya!
Beautiful work in Crew Marsh!📝
I have been so impressed with the beautiful work that children in Crew Marsh have been producing in display.
