World Book Day

7th March 2024Ruth Shields

A day to celebrate books! 🎈📚

Today we have talked about and discussed books. We took part in some quizzes, one of which was run by the National History Trust. This was really enjoyable as it was football themed and has lots of famous faces taking part.

We had a teacher swap which meant Miss Hamill came to read us our class text and Miss Shields went to read with Crew Thompson.

This afternoon, we had some time to do some word searches and colour our own bookmarks. It was lovely to see most people dressed up. We had a few Harry Potter characters with us today.

World Book Day in Crew Thompson🌎📚

Wow! What a fun filled day we have had in Crew Thompson! 🥳 We started the day off with a reading wordsearch to get our brains warmed up. We followed this up by taking part in the National Literacy Trust quiz online. This really quizzed our reading and football knowledge but we all did really well! We then reviewed our current book so that people can use these when looking for a book to choose to take home. We also visited the library and swapped our reading for pleasure book. We really enjoy visiting the library and seeing all the book available to us. Then, we took part in a draw-a-long and attempted to draw ‘The Gruffalo’. We all tried super hard with this and listened to the instructions really carefully. We have had a super day filled with lots of reading and some super great outfits! 🎩🧸👗

World Book Day 📚

7th March 2024Laura Hamill

Crew Hamill have had lots of fun today for World Book Day and so many of us got dressed up as our favourite characters! We began the day by joining a Zoom Meeting and taking part in the World Book Day Quiz which was so much fun. They tested our knowledge on all things football and reading! There were some tricky questions but we gave it our best go. We have also coloured some book inspired quotes and our own bookmarks which have been personalised with our names. We are going to use these in our reading books for when we read at home 🏡

Science Experiment – Results! 🧊

6th March 2024Laura Hamill

Today, Crew Hamill completed their science experiment in which we investigated the impact of temperature on ice. We used the ice we had created in our last lesson and put them in three different places – on the radiator, on the table and in the freezer. We’d predicted that the ice that was left at a higher temperature would melt quicker and we were correct! We checked each block of ice at 30 minute intervals throughout this afternoon and measured how much of it had melted each time. There was almost double the amount of water in the cup that had been on the radiator as there was in the cup that was left at room temperature on the table. The cup in the freezer remained solid! This showed us that the temperature really does impact on the speed at which ice melts so the rising temperatures are a huge factor on climate change.
