Last week 10 children from KS1 represented Carcroft at a basketball tournament at XP.
Archie even won a special medal.
Well done everyone!
The children in Year 2 have loved reading to some of the children in Crew Wilkinson. They are working hard to improve their fluency by reading each day. Keep up the great work everyone!
Today in KS1 we filmed and recorded our song and dance that will form part of our final product.
Geoff from XP came in with all his recording equipment and he is now going to start putting the video together for us. We are very excited to share it will you later in the term!
Crew Hamill had so much fun going out into our forest area to complete our next Scotty’s session. This session focused on creating a shelter that we would be able to protect ourselves from the elements in! We worked in mini crews to use the equipment given to create a space that we could hide from the rain. We then looked at what we could put inside our shelter to make it more comfortable! Well done to Kira and Taylor who earned Scotty’s Heroes this week due to their stewardship for packing away the equipment another crew had left behind!
Crew Hamill have been out in the school playground to show our stewardship and we’ve worked hard to pick up some of the litter that has been floating around!
Last week, Crew Hamill were focusing on how we can recognise and talk about our emotions. As part of this lesson, we discussed facial expressions and how these helped us to decide how someone might be feeling. As a crew activity, we decided to take part in a random act of kindness that we could use to spread a little happiness around school to hopefully help others feel more positive emotions. For this, we created some bookmarks which we have placed in the school library for people to take and use when they are reading for pleasure. We hope that these will bring a smile to some people’s faces!
Here’s a selection of beautiful work from across the XP Trust from this week. To read about other stories from across the XP Trust, visit xptrust.org.
We have been LOVING our times tables stick practice this term, learning different strategies for working out unknown times tables.
Crew Hamill have worked really hard this week on their comprehension skills. We have worked as a crew to remind ourselves the skills needed to solve vocabulary and fact and retrieval questions. Once we’d done this, we worked in pairs to solve some questions of our own.
