We have had a whirlwind of a week in Crew Wilson!
Highlight of the week:
This week we have been continuing on with our expeditionary learning, exploring how religious stories influence celebrations with a focus on Diwali. We are confident re-telling the story of Rama and Sita and can explain why candles are an important part of Hinduism. We have now started the next phase of our expedition: planning a product! The children are so excited to apply their learning to what they are going to make, watch this space for their fabulous creations!
We have being learning about instructions in computing, and had to programme a ‘Sandwich-Bot’ to make a Jam Sandwich. The Crew really enjoyed this and were dying to try it out themselves – maybe they could help make a sandwich over the weekend to practice their instruction skills?
I want to also give a big shout-out to the seven children who have earned their chocolate bar by reading at home four times this week, keep up the great work guys and hopefully we’ll have more children enjoying a reward next week!
Howl Heroes:
Work Hard : This Howl goes to Tommy T today for having a brilliant attitude towards his learning and showing his teachers how hard he can work when he concentrates, well done Tommy!
Get Smart: This Howl goes to Bobby-J today for also having a great attitude towards learning and consistently contributing to group discussions, great work Bobby-J!
Be Kind: This Howl goes to Daisy today for helping out her Crew without being asked by an adult. Daisy has shown great compassion for her friends who were stuck on tricky questions today, well done Daisy!
Howl Average:
We have ended the week on a Howl average of 3.45 (very specific, i know!). We have had a good week as a Crew but some people need to show their teachers the ‘green standard’ expectations with less reminders throughout the day to earn those higher howl scores.
Have a lovely weekend everyone!
