Active Travel and National Sports Week

Well done to all the children who are continuing to walk or wheel to school, parking safe, getting active and helping save the planet. Weā€™ve continued being active in school too, with active crew, active learning and active lining up! @SouthYorksMCA #WalkandWheelSY
The children enjoyed the scavenger hunt to find the different national flags from the Euro 2024 tournament as part of @YouthSportsTrust #NationalSportsWeek

Deaf School Recount

Yesterday, the children did a verbal recount of their school trip to The Deaf School. Then today the children worked hard to text mark the model recount. They got smart and learnt about the features used within a recount write. #LovePlover

KS1 Pride of Plover Winners

Congratulations to this week’s Pride of Plover superstars!

Oliver has impressed his teachers with his brilliant reading. Zuzanna has grown so much in confidence and been an expert BSL coach for other children! Jacob, Gracie-Lee and Lerin have fitted straight into our Plover Crews, who epitomise the Plover Pledge! #LovePlover

A signed recount!

This morning we have started our brand new unit of writing – writing a recount! As part of our new unit we discussed what a recount is and what some of the features are. We then used our experts (Thank you Miss Henderson and Mr Anderson) to learn some of the signs to help us orally retell our model text.

Fantastic Year 1 Trip to the Deaf School

Year 1 have been absolutely brilliant today, showing kindness, respects and wonderful HoWLS during their visit to the Deaf School. We have completed a local community field work study, working with specialist local partners within our community and developing lots of skills and knowledge about our local community! I am sure the children will be able to teach you a few BSL signs when they get home. Thank you to all the teachers and children of the Deaf School who were awesome experts! #LovePlover

Deaf School Visit

Year 2 were kindly invited to the Deaf School to support us with our learning for our Expedition. We were introduced to some of the children at the school and then we had to use their signing names to see if we could work out something about their personality. We did really well! Then we used some of the signs we had already learnt in school, along with some new ones, to play colour bingo. We had to focus hard because there weren’t any audio prompts. We had to watch and pay attention! Our last activity was learning to finger spell simple words and then to use the sign for that object. We have just started learning this in school so it was brilliant to get a chance to practice it!

We all had a brilliant time and learnt a lot. We all said thank you to the Deaf School for hosting us.
