In Crew White, as well as preparing for our SATs, we have been learning about human life cycles. We have learnt particularly about the emotional and behavioural changes, along with the physical changes that the body goes through.
We produced double page spreads to show off our understanding, thinking about our audience and the purpose of explaining and informing.
After a week the beans started to sprout! Look how excited we are 🙂
This was them after 2 weeks! Look how tall they are! Notice the difference with 4 days? WOW! We measure each day and write it on our chart. We’re excited to see how much they grow over the weekend.
The seeds we harvested from our tomatoes have even started to grow! Amazing!
Over the past week, the children have sequenced the stages of plant growth and made and labelled their own flowers, all doing a fantastic job! Not only did they love creating the flowers, but they were also enthusiastic when talking through how plants grow. They are showing great interest and knowledge within the Growth and Change topic.

Today, Crew McLoughlin successfully initiated their scientific investigation by drafting their title, aim, hypothesis and variables before diving into active testing. To determine if exercise directly impacts our heart rate. They conducted a controlled experiment measuring heart rate at resting, low intensity exercise and high intensity. By documenting their pulse before and after activity, they were able to gather their findings.
They loved writing about what the big bad wolf did to the straw house .
Crew Godley have been working hard in maths, developing their understanding of how to calculate percentages of amounts. In particular, Sharni-Mae has shown great determination and focus, approaching each challenge with a positive attitude and growing in confidence when applying her skills to solve problems. Well done, Crew – keep up the fantastic work!
