Crew Gerrard blog (21/09/2020)

Hi everyone!

Today, in Crew Gerrard, we have made a solid start to the week. During our Crew time, we discussed how we could really work hard as a group and individually, even making a class pledge. Then we moved onto rounding in maths, which we are continuing to build our confidence in.

After break, Crew Gerrard came in and started their first few sentences of their third paragraph in writing. We’re really looking forward to seeing how these continue to develop over the coming days. We then continued to read our text, The Giver.

Once lunch was over and the children had regained some of their energy from a busy morning, the our Crew worked in groups and compared the map of Carcroft to maps across the world. Each group looked into a city and looked at what similarities and differences these places had. Some of the cities were Las Vegas and Tokyo. (see the images below).

We then celebrated the day and decided on our HoWL scores, which came to an average of 2.9.

Our HoWL heroes were:

  • Ellie-May for working hard, something that we know she will do everyday. Not just in her work, but helping out myself and Ms Penfold, too. Well done!
  • Emily for trying to get smart all day. I thought she would explode like a firework during our maths lesson, in particular – keep it up!
  • Sapphire for being kind. Sapphire always makes sure that others are okay and that they are feeling better. This is fantastic to see.

Let’s make tomorrow even better and remember to work hard!
