Times Tables

Well done to Shayen and Tim who have completed the Bronze level of their Times Tables. They are already well on their way into the Silver level and beyond. I can’t wait to see if they can complete the whole challenge 2 years early!

Be Kind

In our transition unit today, we explored how we are all people and that we should not be judged by the way we look or dress. There was a lot of very mature conversation about what is right and what is not. We talked about the power that our class will have when they get older to be able to change our world. We recreated a page from the book we have been studying, which carried a very powerful message. We ended the lesson by summing up our learning and we chose 2 simple words – Be Kind!

Plover Praise

Szymon has earned today’s Praise Postcard for his great show of kindness. He gave a donation to Comic Relief today from his own money and told me about the impact our lesson had had on him yesterday. He said how he had been thinking all night about how it is not right for other people to not have access to the same things that we sometimes take for granted – especially food and water. What great kindness!

Pride of Plover

This week’s Pride of Plover is Julita. She is slowly finding her voice and the confidence to talk about her learning. She is determined to improve and is really making huge strides forward. Well done Julita!

We are poets.

We have explored ambitious vocabulary linked to our expedition and then carefully crafted them into rhyming couplets. We saw amazing results!

How to be busy outside.

As part of our learning about the world around us, we took our learning outdoors. We discussed different ways that we can be busy when we are outside and then we made choices about what we would like to do. Some chose to be quiet and reflective, some chose to read, some chose to colour or cut shapes, some chose to play with toys and others chose to run and be active. We decided that it was ok to choose any of these things! We also discussed how important it is to leave the outdoors exactly as we found it!

Taking time to Play

In KS1 we have been thinking about how busy we all are, we thought about the importance of balancing working hard with taking time to relax and have fun.

So after working hard, we had fun… lots of fun!

Roman imagined he was holding a jellyfish!

The children were fabulous, look how responsible they were afterwards. The playground was left spotless.

Wonderful World Book Day

It has been a week since World Book Day, and I thought it would be lovely to look back and remember what a great day it was.

The website has been updated with photographs, so head over there if you want to linger over the pictures a little longer.

But for a whistle-stop tour of the day, check out our video…..
