Wednesday is fast becoming Crew Gerrard’s favourite day! We started off with a fun swimming lesson, then when we arrived back at school, we worked hard on finishing our first paragraph. During maths, we were re-capping knowledge on decimals and are becoming much more confident with our knowledge and terminology. Our HoWL heroes today are 3 fantastic role models for Crew Gerrard:

Work Hard: Emily for being really focused on her decimal learning! 😁

Get Smart: Amelia for always making sure her work is beautiful and something to be proud of! 😃

Be Kind: Jolie for being someone who is always kind and considerate to others.

Our HoWL average dropped to 2.9! We have come up with ideas to be able to make sure our day is better tomorrow! 😆

Wonderful Wednesday! The children have really enjoyed PE this afternoon as they had an opportunity to develop their jumping skills and to demonstrate Sportsmanship. The children tried to be positive, encouraging and respect their Crew while completing their challenges. Working with a range of other peer members has allowed them to develop their crew skills and working together.

Crew Shields Average : 3.3

Targets for this week : 3.4

How can we improve?

To further improve, Crew Shields need to ensure they are responding to feedback without being prompted to do so.

Crew Shields Work Hard Howl Hero – Ava

Ava has had an extremely positive attitude to learning today and has worked hard in all areas of her listening. She has tried to increase her pace and has worked on her listening skills.

Another fantastic day in Crew Wilson!

Highlight of the day:

We have had a very busy day today and have squeezed lots of learning in. Our Crew highlight of the day was making it to the end of our Write Stuff lesson after writing six chunks! Our brains were exhausted by the end of the lesson but we were so proud of how much we achieved. Tomorrow we will work on completing our writing even faster than today, watch this space!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: This goes to Stevie today for getting cracked on with her learning and exceeding her own expectations! Stevie missed our first Wizard of Oz writing lesson yesterday but didn’t let that stop her from completing her sentences today, keep it up Stevie!

Get Smart: This goes to Brandon for independently sounding out adjectives for his writing about the Tin Man today. Brandon is still relatively new to our crew but is proving how big his brain is getting by showing off his newly acquired phonics skills, well done Brandon!

Be Kind: This goes to April. April never needs reminders for being kind to both her teachers and her crew, and will always go out of her way to help others and find jobs to do, great stuff April.

Howl Average: 3.1 – a decent score – we still require some improvement from the Crew for listening skills but a better day in terms of attitude to learning, lets keep it up!

We have had a whirlwind day today, in Crew Gerrard! We started off this morning discussing what sportsmanship is, during Crew. Then we headed into working on our decimals. After break, we then completed some reading around See you in the Cosmos. Before we knew it, we were then on with writing, Gravity. Our HoWL Heroes today were:

Work Hard: Kai for showing an improved attitude and determination to his work! 😁

Get Smart: Tyler for producing some fantastic writing (independently)! 😃

Be Kind: Alicia for helping keep her classroom tidy and being a fantastic role model to her Crew! 😄

Our HoWL average was 3.1 today! I wonder if we can show more resilience during our writing? 😆

Terrific Tuesday! ☀

Star moment of the day: ⭐

Today’s ‘star moment’ has got to be ‘The Write Stuff’ lesson. I was super impressed with how well the children joined in with reading the text, ‘Demon Dentist’. The children enjoyed ‘echo reading’, ’round robin reading’ and ‘missing gap’ reading. Following this the children created some excellent storyboards to show what happened in Chapter 3, their illustrations and captions were great! Great work Crew Elmer! 👏🙌🌟📝✏

Todays HoWL average is: 2.8

Another slightly low score but again we had a few absences today so considering this we performed well as a crew!

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow? 

All crew members need to support each other in ensuring that everyone is trying their best to get at least a 3.0 for their HoWLs.

Today’s HoWL Hero: 

Today’s HoWL Hero was Sienna! It was a close call but as a crew we voted and Sienna was chosen! Sienna was praised by several crew members for working hard and being kind today. I praised Sienna for blowing me away in reading and The Write Stuff today! Sienna grasped an excellent understanding of the story in both lessons and demonstrated this well! Great work today Sienna! Well done! 🙌🤩👏👍🖍

Star moment

Star moment today was productivity in our math lesson, I was so impressed with how hard the whole crew worked in math today. Well done Crew Marsh, this was impressive!

Average is: 2.6!😢

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Crew Marsh’s target for tomorrow is making sure that we have a positive attitude towards our learning, some children in Crew Marsh can be negative to some of the lessons we have through out the day “I hate reading” “Why have we got to do handwriting”. This is something as a crew that we really want to get right.

Howl Hero:

Our Work Hard Hero today is Millie!

Millie has worked so hard today, she has made sure that all of her work looks beautiful and completed all of her learning. 😊😊
