Today’s HoWL Hero:

Shields hero today is Ava! 😁👌 She blew us away with with her attitude and engagement today!

Longley hero today is Keaton! Keaton has come back to school with a real can do attitude. We are so proud! Well Done!

Our online hero today is Kayden! Kayden really has worked hard to get smart. His beaming smile was a pleasure to see when he told me he was the hero!

We have had a very busy day in nursery and managed to squeeze in so much learning!!

We are developing our creative skills and have progressed so that we can now cut and stick independently with little support. We continued making our rockets today and the children were so proud of their creations. We did this activity back in November for Bonfire night with a lot of adult support, so this time we wanted to see if the children could remember how we made them and see how their skills had progressed. They are doing fantastic! 🚀

We have also worked hard in our mark making session, producing some beautiful work drawing bears from the story ‘whatever next’. 🐻 We are getting much better at producing work that we take pride in, ensuring it is neat and tidy. At 3 and 4 years old this is amazing 🤩 Some children even thought what they could add to their pictures such as rockets, stars and the moon! 🚀 🌟 🌙

Phonics is a huge part of learning to read and we already have some children ready to begin some short Read Write Inc sessions. Today we learned the letter ‘m’ and identified objects that begin with ‘m’, then we had a go at writing it. I was so impressed with their first ever attempts 🤩🤩

Finally, I would just like to say a huge well done to those children and parents at home who are learning and sending me lots of fantastic photos! Keep up the great work, we are missing you all lots 🥰

Well done everyone for another great day in crew. Today we have started to create our own battle shields. The children worked hard to design their own shields and label them deciding on what materials they were going to use. These are coming on great! We can’t wait to finish these tomorrow.

HOWL Heroes today:

Working hard: Rome for trying really hard to complete his English learning today using adjectives to write a story introduction.

Getting smart: Jake for labelling his mountain story introduction and trying hard to write a complete sentence.

Afternoon everyone,

We have had another lovely day in Crew Gerrard today. The children have been so welcoming while I have been helping out in Crew and have shown me just how hard they work in Crew Gerrard.

Today we have had some really great discussions in Writing about our subject ‘Healthy Eating’. The children came up with reasons why we should eat healthy and thought about how we can persuade people to become healthier, including adverts on social media, newspapers and leaflets.

Todays HOWL heroes were…

Work hard – Emily-Jo and Jolie – great discussion in writing, well done!

Get smart – Ellie-May

Be kind – Lucas

Our HOWL average for the day was 3.1

Wacky Wednesday! 😵

There has certainly been a lot going on in Crew Elmer today! Technology has definitely not been on our side but somehow we have managed to get through the day!

Star moment of the day: ⭐

This has got to be ‘The Write Stuff’ lesson this morning. I was so impressed with how much of the story the children could remember from yesterday! I was also blown away with the storyboards that they produced to show what had happened in the part of the story that they had read. Some crew members drew some excellent pictures and wrote some very detailed captions. The children working from home also created some fantastic work! Have a look below to see Esme’s amazing storyboard!

Todays HoWL average is: 3.4

WOW! 🤩 I think this is one of the best HoWL scores that we have ever had! I am not surprised as crew members have been working really hard today and lots of them achieved ‘Green Standard’ in all lessons! 🙌🤩⭐👍👏

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.1

How can we develop this next week? 

All crew members need to do as FAB tomorrow as they have done today!

Harlie has been a really kind crew member and has made me really smile!! 😁🙌👏
