Let’s Go Fly A Kite!
Crew MW took advantage of the windy weather today to do something that the children have been asking to do since the start of the year – fly a kite! We worked together as crew to get the kites up into the air, and even though it was raining, we had so much fun! 🪁
Scotty’s with Crew Hamill
Lovely first session today with Mick. Played mirror and other team building activities . Well done to Taylor who was our hero of the week.
Deforestation discussions in MI
Today we thought about deforestation, what it is and the different causes. We watched a variety of clips to help us to understand further. We also looked at some of the reasons why people don’t want to stop deforestation. After having some great discussions on this, we took part in a role play activity. There were a variety of roles given out including loggers, pharmacists, conservationists, cattle farmers and fast food restaurant owners. We each tried to get into role and think about why we were in favour or against deforestation.
Taking away ➖
This week Crew Marsh have been working hard on taking away, I have been so impressed with how quickly we have picked up the method!

MI’s Colombian lap book
Crew MI have been working so hard on their class lap book. It is now really starting to come together and we will continue to add to it as we move through case study 1. It is a great anchor chart for us to refer to 🙂
Library Visit
Crew MW took our weekly trip to the library today. We enjoyed the story ‘Banana!’ in the library and then we voted for a story to take back to our classroom to read tomorrow.
Extra practice in RWI
Crew MW have been working extra hard during their choosing time this week! We’re using the RWI videos to get in a little bit of extra practice during our choosing time and we are really showing how smart we are getting! Keep up the great work Crew MW!
Roman Timeline
To deepen our knowledge of where the Romans came from, we learned more about the history of the Romans. We built our background knowledge further by reading about key dates in the Roman timeline and then we worked in mini crews to order a timeline from 753BC, when the building of Rome began, up until 476AD when the Roman Empire collapsed. Did you know that Julius Caesar was unsuccessful when he first tried invade Britain?
