This morning in Crew Ambler, we hooked ourselves into our new text ‘Can we save the tiger?’ Each group were given different sections of the text and spoke about different animals that needed to be saved. I was blown away with how confident everyone was standing up and speaking in front of others. Well done everyone!

Digital Leaders
Notice for all students in Year 2 to Year 5!
Students in Year 2, 3, 4 and 5 have an amazing opportunity to become a Digital Leader within their class.
This is a fantastic opportunity for children to develop their own individual skills when it comes to the latest technology. Children who are successful will get the opportunity to visit XP East and potentially the Apple Store to have further training on how to use technology including iPads, MacBooks and some of the other great products that are used throughout school. Our Digital Leaders will then become the experts who can then pass on their knowledge to others.
Below is a link to the Digital Leaders website where you can find out further information.

Applications will need to be sent to Mr Taylor by Thursday 3rd February explaining why you would make a fantastic Digital Leader. This can be done in a format of your choice including a letter, slides or even a video showcasing your IT skills.
We look forward to receiving your applications!
Why should we help our World survive?
This afternoon in geography we have been debating whether we should demolish the Amazon rainforest or not. I was very impressed with our research skills and retrieving key facts and information to share as to why the rainforest is so important to our planet. In addition to this, everyone stood up and presented their research and debated what should happen to our rainforests. Great work today Crew Ambler and well done!
Y5 Geography
In geography this week we have been learning about physical and human geography in South America. This week we have focused on Bolivia and researched the human features of Bolivia and the impact they have on the country. I have been very impressed with our collaboration skills this week and the information we have learnt all about Bolivia. Well done Crew Ambler.
Collaborative maths in Crew Ambler
Yesterday in maths we learnt how to multiply and divide decimals by 10,100 and 1000. Each group then worked together to complete a tarsia jigsaw linked to multiplying and dividing decimals. Well done Crew Ambler I was very impressed with your collaboration skills!
