Well done to those who have taken part in our challenges so far – you’ve done a fantastic job! Here is the challenge for day 4! There are 3 different levels for you to choose from depending on whether or not you want a challenge!

We can’t wait to see what you find on your scavenger hunt!

Class 9 fantastic science work

This is just a small selection of the children’s work today, which shows that they understand the main parts of a plant, as well as the functions of the parts of a plant.

These labelled diagrams look fantastic and show just how much pride the children are taking in their work this term.

Superstars!

Year 2 accelerated reader

Today some children in year 2 began their accelerated reading journey. They completed their star reader test and will be using them once a week to access books that they have read in class. Can’t wait to see the improvement in their comprehension and reading skills!

Y1 Band battle update

As day 3 in our nail biting times tables slam draws to a close Crew Schon are still in the lead with an average of 187 correct answers per pupil compared with Crew Rodgers 142. Remember that only questions answered in “Garage’ will count towards our scores. You can also change the length of each game…1, 2, or 3 minutes. Over 2/3 of each class is now playing regularly! What an amazing and fun way to Get Smart in your maths learning! Miss Schon and I are blown away by how enthusiastic you all are about our competition and learning your times tables but please remember to limit screen time and to ensure that you are not allowing other family members to answer the questions for you. Practise really does make perfect. If it is not you who is answering the equations you won’t improve as you should, and will be given tables that do not match your ability. Remember, the competition ends at 8am on Friday morning (3rd February) and a new 12 hour whole-school competition will begin in aid of the NSPCC to celebrate National Number Day. We hope you are having a think about what number or maths based costume you could wear for school on that day.

We are so proud of you all.

Class 10: Finding features

Today, we introduced the children to their next genre of writing. To kick start their learning, the children were faced with a WAGOLL in which they had to find and identify features they already knew. I was blown away by their hard work and also presentation of their group work. Very impressive class 10 keep being awesome!

Top Players

Our current top 5 TTRockstars players in Class 6 were showing us how it’s done today! Thank you to all the children who have logged on and helped us to remain in the lead again today. Super well done to Arnie, Spencer and Phoenix who have been fighting for that number 1 spot! Keep up the super practise.
