Y1/2 Football Tournament

Well done to our Y1/2 children who took part in their first ever football tournament. They finished 5th – winning 2 games, drawing 2 games and losing 3 games. Plovers superstar player was Y1 Vinnie – for his 2 goals! #LovePlover

We are Historians!

2P have been exploring more about the Kings and Queens throughout History. We discussed why some of them have lived in Castles and then turned our focus to Queen Elizabeth II. We built our background knowledge about key events in her life and then created our own timelines to put them in chronological order.

Pride of Plover

Congratulations to the Key Stage 1 Pride of Plover winners this week. It was brilliant to hear how you demonstrated such determination and focus in your learning, always working hard and getting smart. Even better still was hearing how kind you all are and how well you use your manners. Well done everyone!

A crime was comitted!

This week, 2P investigated whether their scientific designs would be good enough to protect Humpty Dumpty from being harmed when he falls off the wall. We carried out the fair test and had somewhat disastrous results! Poor Humpty was more than injured by some of our designs! We reflected that the egg needed to be more fully surrounded by soft materials and that maybe a parachute would have been better than balloons.

Fact Families

2P have been working hard to create fact families using manipulatives in Maths. We explored the parts and wholes and worked out the different positions they can be in when we write adding or subtracting number sentences. Great work 2P!

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

In 2L we have been very busy designing and making a contraption to keep Humpty Dumpty save and stopping him from cracking when he falls. We used our scientific knowledge of materials to choose suitable materials and worked collaboratively to bring our designs to life. We made sure our test was fair and it was very nail biting seeing if we were successful!

KS2 – Learn to Ride a Bike: Survey (Parents please complete)

We have Bikeability, Cycle North and Olympic Cyclist Ed Clancy visiting on Tuesday 15th October.

They are going to work with non-rider children in KS2 (Years 3,4,5,6)

Please complete the survey by the end of Tuesday 8th October, so we know which children can and can’t ride a bike.

The KS1 Pride of Plover

Congratulations to the first Pride of Plover winners in KS1 this year. You have shown us that you work hard, get smart and be kind! Thank you also to the grown-ups who were able to join us for this morning’s celebration.

Save the eggs!

2P continued our work investigating the properties and suitability of materials. We have been challenged to save Humpty Dumpty so he won’t crack when falling from the wall. We created our own designs using our scientific knowledge and then did a gallery walk to spot the strengths of other people’s designs. We then worked collaboratively to make some of our designs come to life. We must now conduct a fair test to see if they will work!

We are kind in Crew Lewis

In Crew we have been thinking about how nice it feels when someone is kind to us. Whether they helped us with our work, helped us when we fell over or picked up our coat when it fell on the floor.

We all thought about the last thing we did that was kind and what things we could do to be kind to others. We each made a Kindness Coupon and shared our kind deeds with our friends and grown ups in school and at home.
