Crew Boswell – 05.10.20

Our star moment has to be our expedition lesson this afternoon.  After thinking about miners at the start of the day, we looked into questions that we would ask a miner about their day and the challenges that they might have faced.  There was some great group-work and some brilliant chotting throughout the day!

Today’s HoWL average is: 3.0

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.1

I wonder if…

I wonder if tomorrow we can transfer our excellent chotting into our own writing and magpie the best of each other’s’ ideas?

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Be Kind hero today is Ellie!

Ellie is usually kind but it was amazing to see her supporting one of her mini-crew with a maths problem when she could see they were getting frustrated at not understanding.  Rather than telling them the answer, she clearly explained how they could find the answer for themselves and guided them to correctly answer it for themselves.

Most children in Crew Mcloughlin have had a jam-packed day of working hard, where we have learnt lots of new things. I was very impressed with how well our maths lesson went and nearly everyone got onto the problem solving! WOW🤩❗ This really reflected our expectations… if you work hard you will get smart.

Daily Blog 2.10.20

A fabulous Friday in Crew Flaherty today. What a busy but fun week we have had.

Highlights of the week:

Celebrating our first month back at school with our Crew and seeing lots of smiling faces when they were completing their 3 activities.

In our morning crew sessions this week, we have been focussing on our Be Kind HOWL. It has been lovely to hear all the children’s ideas about how they can be kind to one another and to people in their community. We’ve had suggestions about how we would help someone who was hurt, how we would let them know we are kind and how we are there to help. We have talked about how we share our resources and how it is important to communicate to each other when we share our resources.

Today, in science we worked in ‘mini crews’ to consolidate our learning about the different stages the human life cycle. It was lovely to see the children discussing their ideas and sharing the resources Not only did your kindness impress me this morning Crew Flaherty but so did your presentation skills when you shared information about our basic needs. You all played a role to support your ‘mini crew’. Keep up the hard work, Crew Flaherty.

 

Learning Legend

Our learning legend this week is Daisy. Daisy has not only worked hard in all her lessons but she has challenged herself in English. I am so impressed with your positive attitude to writing Daisy.

Handwriting

Our golden ticket for the most improved handwriting this week has to be Amelia. She has listened carefully to feedback regarding her presentation in her books and her letter formation continues to improve. Keep it Amelia.

HOWLs

Our Crew average for the day was an amazing 3.7. Well done everyone.

Our weekly Crew average is an incredible score. In fact, Crew Flaherty it is our highest weekly score since we started in September. This just shows how amazing you are.

HOWL heroes

Work Hard

Amelia – for staying focused on her learning and having a positive attitude to complete her task in science.

Get Smart

Jenson – for listening carefully to everyone in his Crew

Be Kind

Brodie – for being a kind friend and using his manners all the time.

I wonder who will be our HOWL heroes next week.
