Crew Schofield Review Books

Crew Schofield selected some of their favourite titles to begin designing book review posters.

It was great to see you collaboratively decide upon which books to review, then considering summaries and your favourite parts of each story, encouraging future readers to pick up a book!

We can use a thesaurus!

Years 3 and 4 have been playing around with the story ā€˜Funny Bonesā€™ today. We noticed there was a lot of repetition in the book so decided to re-write a section of it. The word ā€˜darkā€™ was banned though, so we had to find as many synonyms for this word as possible!

Keep thinking about different ways to say the same thing. That way, your writing will become so much more exciting and your understanding of vocabulary will soar!

Am I an insulator or a conductor?

We have been working hard to investigate different materials; finding out if they are insulators or conductors. Then we have used our scientific knowledge to work as writers and produce a full scientific report.

Keep your curiosity growing folks and the conductors will keep the electricity flowing!

5S are in the hotseat!

Today, 5S took part in a ‘hot seating’ activity where they took on the roles of interviewer and our model of ‘courage’, war hero Ben Parkinson.

The children asked open questions to ‘Ben’ about his life, career and achievements as a veteran. It was good to see you recall your knowledge of Ben to articulate your thoughts and feelings in character – well done!

Reading Crew Schofield

It was lovely to see members of Crew Schofield engaged with beautiful reading today, it was especially lovely to see the less confident readers being supported by some of our more confident crew members. True crew, you’re all so kind and hardworking!

Fun Phonics Dress Up Day

It was b-b-b brilliant to see the children dressed up as the different phonics flash card sounds. We have had so much fun play and learning lots of different phonics games. #LovePlover
