In grammar this week, we have been learning about regular verbs and how they change based on whether they are in the past, present or future tense. E.g. The dog barked = past tense, The dog barks = present tense, The dog will bark = future tense.
Children worked in pairs to decide whether a sentence was the last, present or future tense.
Crew Welburn got to go to xp outdoors again this week and because we are now in October we decided to decorate a pumpkin using the natural resources from the forest area.

In crew Marsh we are experiencing all the different jobs you might find in a castle. We have been cooks, we decorated biscuits for the King and Queen. What a Friday afternoon treat!
Today, Crew Hamill were extremely lucky as they got to spend some time with Ms Haddock and take part in a few crew building activities. For our first activity, we played ‘spiders web’ in which we had to work as a mini crew to get ourselves through the gaps of the spiders web without touching the chains. We started off easy by going through the middle hole but then it was made more difficult when we had to get lower down to go through the bottom hole and somehow get higher up to get through the top hole. This is where we really needed our crew mates! In the second activity, we had to get from one side of the room to the other without touching the ‘water’. We could only stand on ‘land’ (within the hoops). We had to figure out the best way to get everyone safely from one side of the room to the other without anyone landing in the water.
