Manic Monday! After a whirlwind of a weekend catching up with teachers, doing planning, updating the blog and preparing for more live teaching this week I honestly can’t believe that it’s Monday already! At least I am one day closer to being free and being able to return to school! 😬 Today has been a very busy day in Crew Elmer with flu jabs, learning about Sikhism and answering questions about our text, ‘Pony in the Dark’.
Star moment of the day: ⭐
Today’s ‘Star moment of the day’, has to be seeing Miss Hart’s smiley face back in Crew Elmer today! 😊 I know the children in Crew Elmer have missed Miss Hart as much as Miss Clarke and I have! So welcome back Miss Hart! 🖐 It’s lovely to have you back with us! 💕 Only a few more days and our crew family will be fully reunited! 👨👩👧👦
Another ‘Star moment of the day’ with the children was our Expedition lesson this afternoon. I was impressed during ‘Popcorn’ how much some of the children already knew about Sikhism and how this related to our new question around valuable gifts. The children learnt about how Sikhs serve their community, give to charity and selflessly volunteer to help others. The children created some great quizzes to share the knowledge that they gained from today’s lesson. Watch this space for some photos. Great work Crew Elmer! 🤩✏📝
Todays HoWL average is: 3.0
This is possibly one of the lowest scores that Crew Elmer have had for a little while. However, 3.0 is still a good score and as long as we don’t go any lower I’m not disappointed 😊 I do believe that this score is down to a lot of children being honest when completing their HoWLs as well as having 2 children absent. Hopefully we can improve this tomorrow! 🤞
This week’s HoWL target is: 3.4
How can we develop this tomorrow?
Tomorrow Crew Elmer need to continue to work hard, get smart and be kind to each other to enable them to achieve 3’s if not 4’s in their HoWLs tomorrow! 👍
Today’s HoWL Hero:
I was fortunate enough to contribute towards the praises that were given to different children this afternoon. I praised Leo for being honest when it came to his HoWL scores this afternoon as he is always very self reflective and truthful when it comes to the scores he gives himself. Miss Clarke further praised Leo’s great attitude and determination in Maths this morning. Leo is often down on himself and finds Maths challenging. However, today he sought help and this worked in his favour and allowed him to have a successful lesson. Therefore for these reasons Leo is Crew Elmers HoWL hero today for working so hard. Excellent work Leo! Well done! 🤩🙌👍👏
