The children have been using their Taekwondo skills on a board today. Great to see some lovely team work and encouragement for each other.

Well done to Chloe and Kaylum who were the stars today

Challenge crew in MI

We had such a fun time in challenge crew this morning, taking part in a variety of team building activities which also required effective communication. The first activity allowed us to learn more about each other 🙂

Crew Challenge

Our crew thoroughly enjoyed their crew challenge this morning. The communication and collaboration was wonderful to see. The children worked in mini crews to complete different jigsaws. Each and every child played a crucial part to ensure their group stayed focused, persevered and motivated. Our debrief involved a discussion around resilience and how it is an important skill when we are working collaboratively or when we are challenged so we can be the best version of ourselves.

Impression questions in reading for MI

Today we really explored how to answer 3 mark questions around impressions. We recapped how we use APE to answer these type of questions, ensuring we use evidence from the text to support answers. We looked at a given example and unpicked the amount of marks the answer was worth linking to the impressions and evidence given. We tried hard to use the rules of critique when doing this. We then tried to give our own impressions of a character, using the text to support us.

E-safety in MI

Today we celebrated E-Safety day thinking about how we keep ourselves and others safe online. We enjoyed discussing this years theme, ‘Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online’ There were lots of great discussions around this topic which raised many different ideas and allowed us to really challenge our thinking around certain themes. We then decided that we wanted to showcase all of our thoughts together around staying safe online. We all took one of the stands we had thought of as a crew and showed our ideas on online safety. Here you can see our final version altogether. Some great discussions, ideas and posters today MI 🙂
