Text marking / Book talk

During our last 2 lessons in reading, we have been familiarising ourselves with text marking. This is a skill we are teaching and guiding the children with as it is important children can text mark in a way that will support their understanding.
This is a skill we will continue to develop during the Autumn term with the aim that children will be more independent in the Spring term.

An unbe-leaf-able science lesson! 🪴

In science this week we were very interested to learn about the difference types of plants and explored their characteristics. On our tables, we explored ferns, conifers and flowering plants. We then dissected a flowering plant and narrated the parts of a flower. Some of us even challenged ourselves to green standard to become successful at the end of the lesson and made our own classification key to classify the plants. Great work Crew Mcloughlin, we have budding scientists in the making!

Celebrating good attendance

Crew Shields got to celebrate their food attendance last week by having extra playtime. Some of the children chose to play football while others played tiggy tyres maths. If they fell off the tyres then they were asked a maths questions. Great fun had by all.
