Yay! We’ve finally got Crew Shields back together, a day that I’ve been looking forward to. We have missed our Crew members very much and it was lovely to see how excited they were to see their friends again. We’ve had an amazing day and the children have worked extremely hard. The children enjoyed our first hook for our new expedition. We got to explore the different types of teeth and their functions.

Crew Shields Average : 3.0

Targets for this week : 3.2

How can we improve?

To further improve, Crew Shields need work on ensuring they listen carefully to instructions so they can complete their learning.

Crew Shields Working Hard Howl Hero – RiRi
RiRi has been working extremely hard in all areas of her learning. she is trying to take more care when completing her learning. As a result she is moving her learning forward by meeting the learning targets and I’ve really enjoyed reading her writing over the last few weeks.

I think today is a day that a lot of us have been excited about and possibly nervous about. However, I did not see many nerves from Crew Gerrard today. It has been such a fun day and I am so happy to welcome everyone back. You’ve had a great day catching up with your friends and being part of a Crew again. The highlight was the marshmellow towers that you were creating, with varying degrees of success. Our HoWL Heroes today are:

Work Hard: Ellie May for putting so much effort into being able to understand equivalent fractions 😁

Get Smart: Sapphire for being able to independently solve and explain how to complete equivalent fractions 😃

Be Kind: Jolie – we are very lucky to have such a caring person in our Crew 😄

Our HoLW average was 2.9 today and I wonder if we can show that we are ready to learn quicker tomorrow? 😆

Whilst nursery remained open during school closures, we welcomed a few children back today and are now a full crew again 💕 The children were thrilled to receive their certificates and chocolate bars for being so fantastic throughout these difficult times and working hard. They have certainly kept me smiling 🥰

🌟star moments 🌟

Today we went on a listening walk, practising using our listening ears and focussing on the sounds we could hear outside. We heard cars, birds, wind and Henley even said he heard a bird’s wings flapping 🌟

The children did write dance with Mrs Mason and did great at following the actions to the music. The next part is doing the mark making so watch this space for our beautiful work…

HOW Hero 🦸‍♂️ – Henley

Huge apologies, I forgot to give this out at home time but well done to Henley for fantastic listening on our listening walk 👂🏼🌟you are getting really smart at being able to identify sounds!

We have had a fantastic return today for all pupils. Starting off the day with working incredibly hard during phonics lessons through to finishing the day celebrating as a crew all our learning achievements. We have worked hard to get smart during expedition learning this afternoon to put together all our finished model pieces of Lincoln castle. We could then see which parts needed improving by praise, notice and wondering our work. We will continue working on our model this week and begin to add texture to the outside features.

Well done crew Y2 the model looks great.

We survived!! It has been so lovely to have our Crew all back in school and to see your smiley faces! We are more determined than ever to follow and excel in our HoWLs and be the best Crew we can be!

We have had a wonderful first day back with our full crew after lockdown 3.0! We are so glad everyone has re-joined us in school and we have worked so hard today on all of our learning! We even got a special certificate and reward for all of our hard work over the last lockdown!

Highlight of the Day:

Our highlight of the day was our writing lesson! There was an accident with Supertato in the classroom and we had to work out who we could ask to help us! We then practiced our medical skills on each other with bandages and discussed the actions that we were doing!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: This goes to Perrie for coming back after months of online learning and getting straight back in to her work – she was the first one to finish in every single lesson today, welcome back Perrie!

Get Smart: This goes to April today for consistently displaying green standard across all of our lessons today – keep it up April!

Be Kind: This goes to Debbie-Mae for sharing resources and waiting her turn to speak, well done Debbie-Mae and welcome back!

Howl Average:

3.2 – We have started the week off strongly, a few reminders given for listening ears but those children know they need to work on this, lets aim for 4.0 for the end of the week!

Star moment

Star moment today was seeing the children this afternoon learning about teeth, it was great to see the children learn the different types and what they are used for. I wonder if you can remember how many teeth children have?

Average is: 2.8 – not a great start to the week, hoping we get it up to 3 tomorrow.

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Crew Marsh’s target is to make sure they are concentrating on their learning and not as much talking, today this seems to have been all day and I have had to constantly remind children about what working hard and getting smart looks like.

Howl hero: 

Work hard hero today is Mia!

Mia has worked so hard today, she has completed her math work independently and worked really hard in her reading sessions through out the day. Well done Mia!

Marvellous Monday! We have had a lovely day today doing lots of busy jobs!

We have loved our fine motor tuff tray today! We learnt and developed our cutting, snipping and following skills. We talked about colours and really liked the shiny silver paper! ✂️

Then we did our write dance with Mrs Mason. The children remembered so much of the story and did some amazing dance moves.

At the end of the day we had a real treat! To celebrate the end of Lockdown 3 we got a beautiful certificate and a yummy chocolate bar for all our hard work!

Thank you to all the adults who helped the children through these tricky few months. Hopefully the children are feeling kind and share some some their chocolate. Fingers crossed! 🍫

Monday ✅

What a wonderful first full day back we have had. It has been brilliant having the whole crew back in the classroom and great to see so many smiling faces. Unfortunately, Teddy had an accident while he was playing with the other toys! We had to work as doctors and nurses to bandage his arm up, and we are going to write to Zog and the Flying Doctors to come and fix it properly. 🌟

HOWL Heroes:

Work hard: Tiarna👏

Get smart: Elijah👏

Be kind: Scarlett👏

HOWL Score: 3.4 What a fantastic score!! 🌟🌟

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

Work hard: Roxanne – for a fantastic performance in P.E.

Get smart: Lexie – for improved performance in P.E.

Be kind: Maxi – for supporting his peers.

🤩 We are super proud to say that our HOWL average today is 3.5! We’ve worked super hard to achieve this and we’re really now thinking about what each HOWL really means.
