Tiring Tuesday! 💤

This morning we started Crew with lots of children saying that they were in the blue zone because they felt tired! I think that this is due to it being the first week back and it taking a while for some of us to adjust! Hopefully after a rest this weekend we will be more alert next week! Only a few more days to go until the weekend!

Star moment of the day: ⭐

Today’s star moment has got to be our ‘Write Stuff’ lesson this morning. I was blown away with both the quality and quantity of the writing that children produced when writing their cast lists for their playscripts. The children included expanded noun phrases, fronted adverbials, conjunctions and similes and ensured that their writing was structured correctly. I was also impressed with some of the children’s handwriting, Sienna and Kacey-Leigh you blew me away today! ✏📝

Todays HoWL average is: 3.0

Yay! This is where we need to be! It was great to see that we were back on track to achieving our HoWL target this week! 😁

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow? 

Tomorrow we need to continue to be kind to each other at all times and make sure that we are working hard to achieve beautiful work. Some children also need to make sure that they complete work when asked to and that they chat less during lesson time!

Today’s HoWL Hero: 

Today’s HoWL Hero was Kacey-Leigh! Kacey-Leigh was praised by several members of the crew for being kind and working hard today. Miss Hart and myself praised Kacey-Leigh for the beautiful work that she produced in the ‘Write Stuff’ this morning. Her handwriting was beautifully joined and she had taken great pride in the presentation of work and made sure that it was structured according to purpose. Amazing work Kacey-Leigh and a great example for the rest of the crew to look at! Well done! 🙌😁⭐👏

Tuesday complete! In Crew Gerrard, we started our morning off by thinking about our logo design further. We will continue this tomorrow and it is exciting to see what the children think about their school. They have also been working hard in expedition, looking into where the best place to launch a rocket was, which was a highlight for the day. Our HoWL heroes:

Work Hard: Sapphire for listening carefully in writing and for showing fantastic effort 😁

Get Smart: Tyler for listening carefully when working online during maths 😃

Be Kind: Kian for being a really caring person to an upset friend this morning. Your friend is lucky to have you 😄

Our score was 2.9 today, so I’m hoping to see that improve tomorrow! 😆

Highlight of the day:

We have worked really hard today in our maths lesson, where we have compared groups of objects using numbers 0-20. The tricky teen numbers were a challenge for us but by the end of the lesson we had smashed it and got all of our questions right, well done for using those listening ears today Crew Wilson!

Howl Heroes:

Work Hard: This goes to Finn today for creating a beautiful castle non-chronological report, taking his time to ensure his work was the best quality that he could produce.

Get Smart: This goes to Aleks for speaking up in maths and explaining his reasoning to the crew, well done!

Be Kind: This goes to Dalton for assisting his crew when they got stuck with their maths work today, great work!

Howl Average:

2.5 – a slight increase from yesterday but we still have some work to do on ‘getting smart’, as we have had too many reminders today about sitting and listening to the teacher. Let’s keep working on this Crew Wilson, we have the ability to be amazing we just need to listen to instructions the first time!

What a busy day!

We started our day getting cosy in our new reading area. We shared books with teachers, friends and even the teddies! We think they really loved hearing the stories. 📚

Later on we did some body percussion. We made lots of loud and quiet sounds using our hands, feet, mouths and bellies. We especially enjoyed it when we played music along with the sounds we were making.

Today our HOWL score was 2.8.

🌟 Our HOWL hero is Charlie-Jade. She has been a lovely role model to our crew showing green standard sitting and lots of focus. Well done, Charlie-Jade 👏🏻

✨Star moment✨

Star moment today was seeing the children in PE, they worked so well together in their teams and have started to learn that losing is okay.. this was great to see as I know sometimes that they find this tricky.👍👍

Average is: 3.0!

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Again in PE today, I feel so proud about how well they worked together as team. 💕

Crew Marsh’s target tomorrow is to make sure they are concentrating on their learning and not as much talking, this seems to be more in the afternoon now.

Howl hero: 

Get smart hero today is Harper!

Harper your work has been beautiful all day! I have been blown away by how neat every single piece of work has been and the amount of effort you have put into this. Well done! 😁

What a terrific Tuesday it is!

HOWL average for the day is 2.9

Work Hard

Jorge for working hard and staying focused during English

Get Smart

Honey for including adverbs in her writing

Be Kind

Kira-May for helping tidy up our classroom at lunchtime.

I wonder who our HOWL heroes will be tomorrow

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

Work hard: Kelby – for fantastic improvement in her handwriting.

Get smart: Kai – for persevering with Fractions in Math.

Be kind: Deacon – for supporting his crew with their work.

🤩 We are super proud to say that our HOWL average today is 3.0! We’ve worked super hard to achieve this and we’re really now thinking about what each HOWL really means.

Tuesday✅

Today we got to start case study 2 in expedition. In this case study, we are learning all about materials and their properties. We’ve had lots of fun searching for objects around the classroom and labelling the material that they are made from. We’re super scientists in Crew Welburn!🌟

Work hard: Jamie👏

Get smart: Harrylee 👏

Be kind: Lylah👏

HOWL Score: 2.8 We will work on this tomorrow Crew Welburn…
