Tuesday ✔
Highlights from today:
DT:
The children have worked really hard in pairs this afternoon to begin to create tree sculptures for their model village. They made sure they were supporting each other, listening to the instructions and taking turns.
Our HOWL Heroes:
Work Hard: Bronwyn has worked really hard in DT to follow all of the instructions. Well done Bronwyn!
Get Smart: Nathan worked well with his partner to carry out all of the steps to create his sculpture. Keep it up Nathan!

HOWL average: 2.9. Let’s get this score even higher tomorrow Crew Welburn!
What a terrific Tuesday we have had in Crew Wilson.
Highlights of the day:
Moving around school: Today we had school photographs and our Crew were showing the ‘Green Standard’ to everyone they saw around school. They have made their teachers very proud at how sensible they have been, well done Crew Wilson!
Phonics: Today we have been smashing our Read Write Inc phonics! We know that reading and writing is very important, so we have been practicing lots of speedy sounds throughout the day! We have got so fast at this, we managed to get through our Set 1 sounds twice in 60 seconds!! Tomorrow’s target is to get through the pack three times in a minute – We can do this!!
If you would like to help with this at home, there is a video that you can watch with your children: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYuzt5qv1ZI – the faster they can do this, the better their recognition is.
Theme: In our theme lesson we have been continuing with our box model representation of our community – today’s focus was on the wonderful trees that we can see out of the school windows and along the streets of Carcroft. We were being wonderful sculptors, taking our time to mould chicken-wire to get our desired shape, then added pipe-cleaners for branches, which will then be paper-mached and painted. We found working with metal was quite tricky but the Crew were very resilient and worked collaboratively to make sure everyone had a good final product.
Howl Heroes
Work Hard: This Howl goes to Eva for showing the ‘Green Standard’ across the board in our class today, Eva is always willing to have a go and will try doing something herself before asking for help, great resilience Eva!
Get Smart: This Howl goes to Finlay for contributing to class discussions with some great points – especially when we have recapped our learning so far this term in Crew this morning. Finlay has shown that he is actively engaged in our lessons as he can explain and describe everything we have learned about so far, well done Finn!
Being Kind: This Howl goes to Miami today, for contributing to our classroom organisation and keeping areas tidy. Miami noticed that coats were on the floor and went to find their owners without being asked, brilliant work Miami!
Howl Average
3.8 today! We have worked hard today to get our average score up, the biggest improvement today has been our listening skills!
A terrific Tuesday today. Well done Crew Flaherty
Highlights of the day:
It was lovely to see our Crew have their own individual photographs taken this morning. They all looked very smart.
Everyone in our Crew listened carefully and followed instructions in their KIXX session. We had lots of fun playing our ‘Wreck it Ralph’ game. Well done Crew Flaherty.
In our English lesson today, we wrote a fabulous sentence including commas in a list. I wonder if we can focus on our letter formation tomorrow to ensure our work is beautiful.
HOWLs
Our HOWL average for the day is 3.2. A great score Crew Flaherty. Keep up the hard work.
Work Hard
Hollie for completing her fluency and reasoning task in maths.
Get Smart
Lacey-Jo for listening carefully in maths and counting in 2s confidently.
Be Kind
Chase for sharing equipment in his KIXX session today. It was lovely to see such a caring nature from a member of our Crew.
I wonder who will be our HOWL heroes tomorrow.

Today’s HoWL average is: 3.1
Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

Today’s HoWL Hero:
Our Howl hero today is Kayden!
The whole Crew have spotted just how hard Kayden has worked today and the difference in his attitude. Well done Kayden!
What a tremendous Tuesday!
Today I want to give a massive shout out to the whole Crew – Crew Godley have absolutely worked their socks off today! They have worked so hard to show all of their teachers what “Working Hard” looks like when they are working with an adult. I am very proud!
Highlights of the Day
RWI Another day of fantastic phonics progress. Today I had the pleasure of teaching our children the phoneme ‘m’ – Maisie, Maisie, Mountain! The children sorted objects beginning with the sound ‘m’, identified the grapheme and successfully blended CVC words including the sound ‘m’. We then tried really hard to write the grapheme ‘m’, well done everybody!
Math’s The children have been focusing on number recognition on exploring lots of different ways to represent the numbers they have been focusing on. We were super impressed with how some children are beginning to form their numbers and becoming focused on 1:1 touch counting.
Crew Learning In Crew learning today we have being thinking about how a rainbow 🌈can symbolise our thoughts and feelings. The children were very excited to share their experiences during COVID and how the rainbow helped them during the difficult time🌈 . We then used colours to show how different things made us feel. Grace used the colour pink as this made her feel loved💕 She then drew a fantastic picture of ‘Mummy’ as she loves her 👩👧 and labelled this with a ‘M’ for Mummy. We love to see children applying their phonics skills!
Crew Shields have been continuing to practice their computing skills this afternoon. They have worked as pairs to code. In addition, they have started to make contributions to their very own website which is our final product for the expedition.
Today’s HoWL average is: 3.0
Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0
How can we develop this tomorrow?
To improve further, Crew Shields need to start building on their independence. This will allow them to take ownership of their own learning.
Today’s HoWL Hero:
Our Get Smart hero today is Tommy!
Tommy was able to deepen the moment in writing today by using a simile. This shows that he has been paying attention to the modelling in writing. Well done Tommy.
