Into the Mouth
Do you want to make a pizza?
We loved making our own pitta pizza today in our expedition lesson. We followed a recipe created by KS1 children at Carcroft in 2023. They were delicious!
Reasons To Read.
Today, we lead our own learning in Crew Wilkinson. We used the text, (Malala Yousafzai: A Voice for Education)to create 3 Reasons To Read questions for our partner to answer. We used our skimming and scanning skills to help us create our questions.
Do you want to make a pizza?
Yesterday the children in Crew Robson practiced their chopping, grating and spreading skills to make their very own pitta pizzas. They really impressed me with how they worked together to support each other. It was lovely to see them enjoying their fruits of their labour too! Great work Crew!
Finding the imposter!
A recap of vocabulary in our reading activate! We loved it!
Investigating our outdoor area
To support our expedition, we had a discussion around a tray of items that Miss McGlone had brought in for us to look at. There were binoculars, insect pots and magnifying glasses. We talked about what each item was used for and how we could use them in our outdoor area. Working in small groups, we took the items outside and took it in turns to see what we could discover using this special equipment. Unfortunately, we didn’t find many bugs or insects – just a worm who tried his best to escape from Hunter’s fingers! We noticed birds in the trees and flying through the sky by looking through the binoculars and we saw lots of plants growing in more detail after looking at them through the magnifying glasses. We are going to continue to use our equipment throughout the year to see what wonderful things visit our outdoor area in the different seasons!
Life Cycles of a Butterfly
The children have really enjoyed learning about the life cycles of a butterfly. They have been using their fine motor skills to create their own butterfly life cycle. The children can now recite the stages using actions.
Our Guitar Lessons !
Today in Crew Wilkinson, we had an awesome guitar lesson, and we’re excited to share. Some students loved learning a new chord, while others enjoyed strumming along to a song.It was exciting to hear music come to life!
Equivalent Fraction Families
To bring our unit on fractions to a close, we have been exploring equivalent fractions and identifying as many families as we can. To begin with, we created our own fractions walls and then used these to follow the lines to help identify which fractions were the same (of equal value). We then realised that we could use our times table knowledge to support with this and created some fraction flowers using this skill.
