Another busy day down the pit for us today as the children were able to experience a little more of what it could have been like working down a mine and having to navigate small spaces while working as a crew.

Today’s HoWL average is: 2.7

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 2.8

I wonder if…

I wonder if we can listen carefully to instructions, especially with our writing, to help us to get smart.

Today’s HoWL Heroes:

Our Be Kind hero today is Lucas!

Lucas has had a great attitude to his learning today and has been positive about everything, even the challenges!  He’s even spread this positivity to the rest of the crew and kept us all smiling today.

We have had a marvellous Monday and great first day back in Crew Wilson🤩

Highlight of the day:

Today Mr Wilson has had a break from teaching as the Crew have led in our Computing session this afternoon, assisting each other to de-bug an algorithm using prior knowledge and their new skills gained from the last 6 weeks. They have worked fantastically together as collaborators, helping each other fix issues and have had some in-depth discussions about the problems they encountered and how to overcome them, it was great to sit back and watch how they work together, well done Crew!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: Debbie-Mae has shown she is consistently aiming for green standard in every lesson today, well done!

Get Smart: Bobby-J has listened carefully to instructions and has provided some brilliant answers to questions in discussion times, great work!

Be Kind: Keira-Leigh has been kind to her Crew today by helping others sound out words when they got stuck with reading directions in computing, and has been a cheerleader for everyone’s achievements  today, well done!

Howl Average:

3.3

This has dropped by 0.1% but the Crew have some whole class and personal targets for tomorrow so they can demonstrate their Howl’s to the teachers and to get those fab fours.

Monday✔

Highlight of the day: 

We have had lots of fun grouping objects and comparing them in maths today. We learnt lots of new vocabulary including more than, less than and equal to and used this to describe and compare the groups.

Our HOWL heroes are…

Work hard: Darcie

Get smart: Tiarna

Be kind: Kairen

Our HOWL average was 3.9 today. This is fantastic!! ✨✨

Crew Shields have had a great day. We were fortunate enough today to have a workshop based on Parliament. The children were given information about the House of Commons and House of Lords. They even had an opportunity to discuss the things they would like to change if they were in charge.

Today’s HoWL average is: 2.9

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow?

To improve further, Crew Shields need to become more resilient when completing their learning.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Be Kind hero today is Georgie!

Georgie has demonstrated some great examples of being kind today. She supports her peers when learning and even helped a child to tie their laces. That is definitely how we show being part of a crew.

I have loved watching the children experience what working in a mine would be like, we went into the hall and acted out mining: going down the shaft, getters (getting coal), stoppers (holding the doors), thrusters (getting the coal to where it need to be).

Today’s HoWL average is: 2.6

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.2

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Tomorrow, Crew Marsh need to make sure they are listening to every instruction.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Get Smart hero today is Mia!

Mia has shown that she has been getting smart by showing me that she has been listening all day. Well done Mia!

Crew Longley have been learning about the UK Parliament and the Lords today. They even got to see where Boris Johnson would be standing later in the day.

Today’s HoWL average is: 2.3

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 2.9

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Tomorrow, Crew Longley really need to how they can be sensible and be ready to work.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Howl hero today is Lydia S.

We have been blown away today seeing Lydia really try to produce beautiful work. Her presentation is really developing. Well done!

Hi everyone,

We have had a good start to the week and I know that we will make sure that tomorrow will be even better. It was a tough choice to decide on HoWL heroes today and the lucky few were:

Work hard: Jolie 🦸‍♂️

Get smart: Sapphire 🦸‍♂️

Being kind: Ruby 🦸‍♂️

Well done guys and let’s carry on improving tomorrow. We’re aiming for 3.2 tomorrow, after scoring 2.9 today in the HoWLs.

Today, we could’ve given anyone HOWL hero… but the lucky 3 were:

Work hard: Lexie 🤣

Get smart: Milena 🎂

Be kind: Mckenzie 😂

🤩 We are super proud to say that our HOWL average today is 3.0! We’ve worked super hard to achieve this and we’re really now thinking about what each HOWL really means.

Well done Crew Kent 👍

A fabulous Friday in Crew Flaherty today.

 

Highlights of the day:

It was lovely to see all the children supporting World Mental Health by donating and/or wearing yellow. The children have enjoyed sharing the things, places and people that make them feel happy.

 

Learning Legend

Our learning legend this week was Thomas  for striving to succeed in every lesson. Thomas has a positive attitude to his learning and applies his new knowledge and skills to his work. We couldn’t ask for anymore. You are a role model to others in your Crew. Well done Thomas, keep up the good work!

 

Handwriting Golden Ticket

Maria enjoyed her shake and cake this morning for improving her handwriting over the last couple of weeks. Well done Maria!

 

HOWLs

Our HOWL average for the day was 3.1. A great score today, well done Crew

Our weekly Crew average was 3.1. Unfortunately a little lower than last week. Let’s improve our listening skills next week and I’m sure our Crew average will increase.

HOWL heroes

Work Hard

Jorge has been working hard to complete his work and stay focused on his learning.

Get Smart

Lacey-Rose for listening carefully to instructions.

Be Kind

Millie for being a kind member of her Crew and sharing equipment even though you wanted to use it yourself. Very mature Millie, well done.

 

I wonder who will be our HOWL heroes next week
