A carousel of maths in MI

Before we started transition week, we got to work on some times tables practise. We took part in a carousel of activities including bingo with Mrs McClare, rapid recall of all our times tables, times tables rockstar work and a number card game. We worked against a timer, pushing ourselves whilst concentrating on each task. Great work Crew MI 🙂

Transition – Crew Mcloughlin 22/23

We have had a lovely first day settling in to Crew Mcloughlin🥰. We focused on our be kind HoWLs and how we can be the best version of ourselves. We also generated character traits that we want to see in our crew. We learnt that sometimes we may need to help each other along the way to ensure we present these, empower each other and by doing this we will create the best crew in school🤩.

What a great first day the children have had! I cannot wait for the rest of the week now.

Transition – New Crew Shields

It has been a lovely day in Crew Shields. We have spent some time reminding ourselves of the expectations which most children had remembered from Year 3. This led us into watching a short video where we inferred it was about bullying and the importance of being inclusive. We generated a range of qualities that we look for as a crew and as a good person and then children created a jigsaw piece with their chosen quality. It was great seeing the children working collaboratively and I’m looking forward to the rest of this week.

Sleepover fun 😊

Sleepover is in full swing. currently out enjoying the sunshine with games on the field and a game of dodgeball.

Day 2 of Crew Fox cooking

Today was time for the main course… traffic light chicken kebabs! Before our cooking and preparation began, we learned about cross contamination. This was important to understand so that we are staying safe whilst cooking.

First we made the marinade using paprika, tomato ketchup and chopped garlic. Then we chopped the chicken in to large chunks before we marinated it thoroughly. Whilst some of us were chopping chicken, others were chopping peppers into large chunks. Finally, we created the skewers and cooked them in the oven. Delicious!

UKS2 Final Product Celebration

Dear parents/carers,

Crew MI 7.7.22 Pancakes…

We’ve been cooking again today. Today, we really enjoyed making healthy pancakes. We worked in groups and took it in turns to measure and mix the ingredients. When the mixture was ready, we each made our own pancake and had it with fruit and yoghurt. Delicious!

EYFS Summer Expedition Celebration.

Today at the Summer Fair you might have come across Ms Kelly and Mrs Rafter selling delicious ice creams. As part of our expeditionary learning the children were to research seaside foods and holiday favourites. We loved learning about ice creams!

After strenuous taste testing of different flavour ice creams and toppings. The children across EYFS decided the winning flavour to be sold at the summer fair would be ”Strawberry” topped with rainbow sprinkles and strawberry sauce. 🍦

We hope you agreed with our choice and enjoyed them as much as we did. 😋

Here is the video of all our learning. It really has been an amazing term!
