Today we started our new unit all about money. To recap what we learnt in Yr1 we matched coins and amount and then played a game on the iPad to reinforce our learning. Well done Crew Robson!
Coin Recognition in Maths
Reading for pleasure…
We are really enjoying our class read… ‘Explorer’ and are taking it in turns each day to read a bit to the class. This has been really effective in improving our fluency and expression.
Computing in Crew Boswell
This week we had lots of fun exploring how to insert sound clips using scratch. We recorded sounds and then coded these so that our sprites were saying or playing them. Some of us even challenged ourselves to put these in an order so that they played at different times.
1st December fun 🎄
The 1st December means it was time to get the Christmas tree up which was a lovely way to end assessment week. Luckily I had lots of elves to help me out.
KS1 Santa Dash!
We are so proud of our children in KS1, today, we completed our Santa Dash to raise money for Hallam FM, Cash for Kids. The children were so excited to be ‘heroes’ in their community and help those children who are not as fortunate this Christmas. The children raised an incredible £306 pound in total, including the bake sale earlier in the term. We’d like to thank all of our parents and families for your support, we enjoyed having you with us today. The children were thrilled to have raised so much money. We can’t wait to buy and wrap the gifts to donate 💕 Here’s a couple of sneaky peaks 🎅
Boxing Skills
So in Crew Haddock the children had an old student come into school (Kodi) and showed them some basic boxing skills. The children really enjoyed this and really looking forward to some more 🥊
FS1 – Decorating our classroom and Christmas tree as a crew!
Crew Dorman had a lovely time decorating the classroom for Christmas this morning! We loved choosing which baubles we wanted to put on the Christmas tree. We worked as a crew to take it in turns to put on the baubles and listened to Christmas music whilst we decorated together! We think our classroom and our tree looks amazing! 🎄
FS1 – Creating animals for Percy’s Park!
Over the last two weeks we have been busy making lots of animals that we discovered lived in ‘Percy’s Park’ and the woodlands near us! We have used our cutting and sticking skills to explore feathers and leaves and I am sure you will agree our animal creations are super!
While we made the animals we discussed what we could find in a wood like Percy’s!
C said – “Owls live in a tree!”
A said – “Leaves and birds!”
R said – “A fox and rabbits”
N said – “Leaves sticks and rabbits”
We also discovered that lots of the animals in Percy’s park are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and only come out to eat and play at night! What an exciting expedition! We hope you can join us for our celebration of learning next week on Thursday!
Crew MW get Christmassy!
Crew MW had a lovely time decorating the classroom for Christmas this afternoon! We loved choosing which baubles we wanted to put on the tree and then climbing up onto the stool to reach the top. We think the trees look beautiful! 🎄
Star of the day in Crew Haddock
