Congratulations to Lyra who was our final remote learning Pride of Plover winner last week and gets to wear the yellow t-shirt in school this week 😁
Lyras online learning was always handed in to a great standard and last week Lyra produced a star performance re-enacting London’s burning, using intonation, actions and musical instruments.
Just a few short words to summarise how amazing today has been and how immensely proud I am of every child in 1M today! 🤩 (I wish more photos/videos had been taken of all the children entering school and throughout the whole day, to support how incredible your children have been… but we were too busy learning, sharing, helping and enjoying being back as a class crew!)🗣🥳🙌🏼
It was a surreal and magical moment seeing all my children and you awesome grown ups on the playground this morning 🤗 I hope you grown ups all had a well earned rest and some well deserved you time today!💆🏽💆🏼♀️ (can I just remind you all to wear face masks, follow social distancing and arrive on the playground as close to 3pm as possible at home time please). 😷
All 30 children in 1M were present in school today 🏆 (let’s start as we mean to go on and win the class cash for 100% attendance!)
All 30 children acted in such a mature, kind and enthusiastic way today in their learning and on the playground 👏🏼 Resulting in some brilliant discussions in class, some lovely writing and 3s and 4s all round in their HOWLs!🟡🟢
I thought I’d be shattered and sock on sleeping by this time… but the beaming smile of pride I have for all 1M children is infinite! I can’t wait to see you all tomorrow morning 🤩💫⭐️🌍
Final thing, if you loaned a School Chromebook during remote learning can you please return it by the end of this week please. 💻
All in all, it has been a truly heartfelt and wonderful day. Thank you children, thank you grown ups, thank you Plover crew! 🙏🏼 (See told you it would only be a few short words 😬😅)
We had a great day celebrating books at Plover. There were all sorts of characters walking around from Gangsta Granny to Mr and Mrs Twit; Mary Poppins and Wonky Donkey; Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf in Grandma’s clothing- plus lots, lots more!
We had lots of potato photos for the potato character competition and some great reviews on the Padlet – check out the books that have been recommended – they are bound to make you LOL!
Our Masked Reader competition was very popular – well done to Harper in 4G for correctly identifying all 20 of the Masked Readers
We have lots of photos of the day so check out our World Book Day Website for many more: https://sites.google.com/ploverschool.co.uk/ploverworldbookday2021/home
In KS1 yesterday our Expedition lesson was about how to draw fire and flames, we wanted to create fabulous 2D artwork. I think you will agree, the children have done an amazing job.
Darcy worked really hard on keeping his colouring in the lines, he thought carefully about the shape and brightness of his colours. Ellis experimented with watercolours.Talliah looked carefully at the models – look at her work in progress – her eye for detail is super.Vittoria’s looking proud… look how she has carefully drew and coloured her flame. I love the sparks coming off it.
Thank you so much to everyone for sharing their learning. We have really enjoyed watching what you have been up to!
We would like to give a huge shout out to everyone for taking part in the Music session from our expedition learning. We have chosen just a few examples of your amazing work below. Well done to Darwin, Johnny, Scarlett, Isabelle and Shayen for your unbelievable percussion work for our rhyme.
Shayen, this is yours for your learning today!
We are having problems converting and uploading the videos for Scarlett, Darwin and Isabelle but as soon as we have solved it, we will add them here. Sorry to keep you waiting for them!
In Year 1 we have been exploring weight, we wondered which objects were heavier and lighter, or which would have an equal mass. We used balance scales to see if our predictions were correct.
We extended our learning to comparing weights to 1Kg. Could we find objects heavier and lighter?
