In preparation for designing our own chocolate bar, we have tasted and critiqued chocolate bars with differing flavours. Luckily, water was on hand for those which had a high percentage of cocoa!

World Book Day Thursday 5th March
At Plover, we will be celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 5th March.
As always, children are invited to come to school dressed as a book character, but in Year 3 and 4, we are linking the day to our current Expedition and we are asking for children to come dressed up as characters from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Please do not feel you have to go out and buy a costume, there are lots of fantastic ideas for inspiration at very low cost online.
I can’t wait to see all the fantastic creations.

Year 3 and 4 Celebration
Our LKS2 Celebration is fast approaching on Tuesday at 2pm so here are some final bits of information:
All tickets have now been issued and unfortunately we can not give out anymore due to fire regulations in the church. If you are no longer able to attend, please could you let us know, so the ticket can be reissued.
Raffle tickets will be on sale from Monday and at the Celebration, with a variety of prizes including a Family ticket for four to a Doncaster Rovers game of your choice this season, a teddy bear and more. All the money raised from this raffle will go towards the cost of making our final product next term. We will draw the raffle on Wednesday.
Refreshments will be available at the celebration.
Here is a list of any costumes required – we have tried to keep it as minimal as possible.
We are looking forward to seeing you next week.

Compassion in 4B
On the third day of Crew Week, the class completed some activities to demonstrate the character trait: compassion. We took part in the colour run to raise funds for the school as well as our charity the RSPCA. We also completed a kindness chain to display the kind acts we have done some far this year which we will hopefully add to as the year progresses. Finally, we decorated our own baby egg which we had to show compassion and care for to make sure it didn’t crack.
Well done 4B, we have shown what a kind and compassionate class we can be!

Craftsmanship and Quality in 4B
On the second day of Crew Week, 4B were learning all about the character trait “Craftsmanship and quality”. We used demonstrated this by creating and critiquing drafts of a poster about our school charity the RSPCA. After several attempts, we produced some beautiful work which we are proud to display in the classroom.

First day back in 3B
Happy New Year! 3B have had an amazing start to first week back.
Shoutout to those children who made a special effort to dress up as a robot for the occasion. We spent the morning in our crews completing some activities to hook the children into the learning for our new expedition this term. These activities included investigating the internal organs, skeleton and muscles using AI and interactive games; classifying robots; making electronic circuits and cutting and sticking robots and skeletons.
Children were given a word at the end of each workshop to workout our new guiding question: The power of life: What makes us human?
As reward for solving the puzzle and in preparation for Friday’s learning, we spent the afternoon watching the film Robots.
The children are all hooked in and excited to learn more.
