We have been surrounded by sounds today!

This morning we shared books with our Crew mates. Lots of us remembered which way we turn the pages and treated our books with care. We explored the colours and some of us told stories using the pictures.

We enjoyed our books so much some of us went straight to the reading corner to look at some more! We also explored lots of sounds while we used the playdough.

Today’s HOWL hero is Layla! Her confidence is growing each day and it is wonderful to see her becoming more independent in provision.

Wednesday ✅

Wow! We’ve worked so hard today in our writing lesson today! We started writing our letters to Zog and we had so many brilliant ideas to share between each other so that the opening sentences to our letters were the best they could be. 🌟

HOWL Heroes:

Work hard: Frankie👏

Get smart: Lylah👏

Be kind: Bronwyn 👏

HOWL Score: 3.4 This is a very high score Crew Welburn! Keep it up!

Highlight of the day:
We have continued to explore letter writing today and worked so hard writing them in the correct format – we have written an address, greeting and an introduction. Hopefully Zog and the Flying Doctors will receive our letters soon and will be able to help us!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: This goes to four boys today – Bobby-J, Luke, Brandon and Tommy F for their hard work in writing today – they concentrated so well and have started creating some beautiful letters.

Get Smart: This goes to Stevie for thinking hard about the sentences she was writing, and completing them independently, well done!

Be Kind: This goes to Tia for keeping the classroom in order and offering to complete jobs for teachers, well done Tia!

Howl Average:

3.6 – we’ve stayed steady with our score today, massive improvement for getting smart by listening, let’s see if we can get it even higher tomorrow!

Crew Shields have enjoyed learning the new skills required to play hockey. They have been dribbling, passing and shooting at the goals. Coach Shelly commented on how happy the children while they were practicing these news skills and they are looking forward to a hockey match, next week. We have also been working hard on our resilience as we learned more about carrying when multiplying 2 digit numbers especially as we had to apply the skills we practiced yesterday. Well done everyone!

Crew Shields Average : 3.0

Targets for this week : 3.2

How can we improve?

To further improve, Crew Shields need to ensure that they have a consistently positive attitude to learning to allow them to be successful in all learning.

Crew Shields Get Smart Howl Hero – Loghan
Loghan has made more of an effort today to stay in his seat which hass allowed him to focus on his learning. In Writing, he came up with some lovely ideas to write in his narrative. Well done Loghan.

It’s been a strong day for crew today with some well-thought praises, wonders and even apologies at the end of the day.  It’s great to see everyone catching others doing things well and even better that, where needed, we can accept that some things haven’t gone as right as they could for ourselves.  It’s no surprise that our highlight today was PE and the chance to blow some of the cobwebs away in the car wash!  Ask our crew to find out more…

Today’s HoWL average is: 2.8

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.1

I wonder if…

I wonder if anyone wants their work on our beautiful work or beautiful handwriting display.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Our Work Hard HoWL Hero today is Lucas!

A great day for Lucas!  I’ve said before that it isn’t always easy asking for help, but not only has he been prepared to do that all day, but he’s flown with the work afterwards!  This shows real focus and that important positive attitude, well done, Lucas.  More of the same tomorrow?

We are back as a crew! Well done to everyone for either learning at home or coming into school.

We are so proud!

Another busy day. Today we have been getting smarter in reading, identifying features of a narrative, starting to multiply 2 digits by 1 digit using a formal method and looking at the structure of a tooth.

Our HoWLs today were: 2.7

This week our HoWl target was: 2.9

Our HoWL hero today was Alkim. Alkim has really got smarter in phonics. He even applied that to his spelling work and really showed off about his special friends knowledge. Well done!

Wow! What an action packed day it has been in Crew Elmer today! It was all go from the moment the children stepped into the classroom this morning! Arithmetic, reading, maths, writing, PE, fix it time, the list goes on! We have definitely done lots of learning today!

Star moment of the day: ⭐

Today ‘s star moment has got to be PE! Despite not being in the lesson, I was blown away by how ‘buzzing’ the children were when they came back into the classroom! They couldn’t stop telling me how kind some of the members of our crew had been, how everyone had participated really well, and how they had worked collaboratively to complete a range of games. It sounded like it was a really successful PE lesson! Well done Crew Elmer! 😁👍

Todays HoWL average is: 3.1

Another good score above our target (just!)! Today, we had a few absences again and also some children who didn’t follow their HoWLs as best as they could at times which caused some of our scores to be a little lower.

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow? 

Tomorrow, we need to make sure that all crew members in school try their best to get at least 3’s in their HoWLs tomorrow! Let’s work as a crew and get everyone there!

Today’s HoWL Hero: 

Today’s HoWL Hero was Rowen! Rowen was praised and nominated by his crew members today for working hard all day and trying his best in every lesson. Several crew members also praised the fact that he took part in PE today which is sometimes a lesson that he does not enjoy, but today he did! An amazing day for you today Rowen! 🙌😁⭐👏 I wonder if you can be like this every day!?
