Crew Elmer Daily Blog 05.11.20

Tiring Thursday 💤 We are all feeling the tiredness of the first week back! Is it Friday yet?!

Star moment of the day: ⭐

Yet again today I have been in and out of the classroom and haven’t got to be in Crew Elmer much! As Harley says ‘I am a very busy lady!’  😂 However, I was really impressed with the children’s times table knowledge in maths today. This is something that we are really focusing on in Year 4 and already I can see an improvement! 🙌 The children were great at chanting the times tables, doing the hey macarena, and more importantly improving their MTC scores! 👏 Remember Crew Elmer this is something that you can practice at home using the following link: https://www.timestables.co.uk/ If you are struggling to login then just get your grown up to send me a Dojo message or I can speak to them before or after school. Remember the more you practice the better you will get! 👍

Todays HoWL average is: 3.1

This seems to be going down ever so slightly this week and I feel that this is due to some of us being tired and getting easily annoyed with others resulting in us being unkind to each other. Please make sure you are getting lots of sleep and rest over the weekend so that you feel refreshed for Monday!

This week’s HoWL target is: 3.3

How can we develop this tomorrow?

Tomorrow Crew Elmer need to make sure that they are all ‘being kind’ to each other at all times. 💕 This includes thinking about what they are going to say before they say it, as well as their actions.

Today’s HoWL Hero:

Goodness me! The praises were flowing in Crew Time this afternoon! However, Miss Clarke and I firmly agreed that Kacey-Leigh was worthy of the ‘Working Hard’ HoWL Hero because like it says she has ‘worked hard’ all day today. Her writing in TWS was amazing and was all completed independently. Also in expedition she completed a full page of writing to answer our current expedition question on ‘why we should be proud of Carcroft Community.’ Reading what Kacey-Leigh wrote really made me proud to work and teach in Carcroft! 😊 In addition to this, Kacey-Leigh also worked her socks off last night and wrote some great additional writing to support TWS work that we have been doing in class. Well done Kacey-Leigh! 👏🙌👍🤩⭐✏📝
