Thursday ✅

Highlight of the day:

We have had a medieval banquet in our expedition lesson this afternoon and have had a real taste of castle life! We bowed to the Royals, ate some yummy bread and fruit, we had a jousting battle and we even danced a medieval jig, it was so much fun!

Howl Heroes:

No Heroes today as we were so involved with our banquet we forgot to do them!

Howl Score:

2.8

We have been very reflective as a crew today.  Whilst we have had fun this afternoon, some of the crew could have worked a lot harder this morning, so that is their challenge for tomorrow to get those Howl scores higher!

Another busy day for the two crews. Today we have been reading for understanding, improving our handwriting and learning about Roman mosaics.

Longley Crew Average:  3.4

Shields Crew Average : 2.7

Targets for this week : 3.3

How can we improve?

Tomorrow, we need to ensure that we are listening and ready to work hard. When learning we sometimes drift and we need to make sure that we listen, try and work independently.

Online Howl Hero – Lydia B. This was for a fantastic rap that she had created about the Romans

Shields Howl Hero – Maddie. She really has tried hard, shown beautiful presentation and independence.

Longley Howl Hero- Sophia. Sophia has blown us away with her presentation and her positive work ethos today.

My star moment today was seeing the improvement as a crew they have made to correcting their learning with purple pen, this is a massive step forward and has made a real difference in their learning. Well done Crew Marsh, keep it up!! 😁😎👏

Average is: 3!👌

Our Weekly HoWL target is: 3.1

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Crew Marsh need to continue to be more mindful of putting their hand up rather than getting out of their seat, and making sure that we are listening and following instructions the first time.

Today’s howl hero is:

Get Smart hero today is Mark! 🙌😁😁😁

Mark has blown me away today with his amazing ideas in the writing lesson! His handwriting was lovely and he tried really hard. Well done Mark, it is well deserved today!💕

Tommy has made me feel really proud today, I have seen a massive attitude change regarding his learning, he is doing amazing in writing every single day and making sure he is hitting both gold and green standard.

Wet Wednesday! 🌨

It has been a very wet day today but we have still had lots of fun in the classroom!

Star moment of the day: ⭐

This has got to be our Expedition lesson this afternoon. I was really blown away with the amount of facts that the children knew about the Colosseum! The pictures that the children drew were also amazing! 👍🙌👏⭐ Watch this space for some snaps! 📸

Todays HoWL average is: 3.1

This is a great score today especially as we have had some absences today! 🙌🤩⭐👍👏

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.0

How can we develop this tomorrow? 

All crew members need to ensure that they are following the HoWLs at all times, and that those at home at continuing to submit any work that they have completed! 👍

Today’s HoWL Hero: 

Today’s HoWL Hero was Ryleigh! Ryleigh was chosen by both her crew members and staff for ‘working hard’ all day today! I was particularly impressed with the amount of ideas that she contributed during ‘popcorn’ in The Write Stuff this morning! This really helped with our ‘chotting’ and meant that all crew members had lots of ideas for their own writing! Ryleigh also worked really hard this afternoon to draw a picture of the Colosseum and to write some key facts about this famous building in Rome! Amazing work today Ryleigh! Well done! 👏⭐🤩🙌😁🕺

Hi everyone,

We’ve had a busy day and are all working really hard to make sure that we were producing our best work today. I have seen some great posters that have been made about key people making a stand for what they believe in. It’s been tricky to choose our HoWL heroes:

Work Hard: Zane for getting to grips with the difficult multiplication and helping others with it.

Get Smart: Emily for challenging herself to do trick multiplications.

Be Kind: Jolie for trying to cheer her peers up and making us smile.

Our HoWL average for today was 3.0!

You’re doing a great job guys! 😀

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

Work hard: Grace – for fantastic work on her expedition poster.

Get smart: Crystal – for amazing research on Malala.

Be kind: Mckenzie – for supporting and being helpful online.

🤩 We are super proud to say that our HOWL average today is 3.3! We’ve worked super hard to achieve this and we’re really now thinking about what each HOWL really means.
