This afternoon, KS2 also enjoyed a performance all around bullying with a focus on cyberbullying. It was great fun with lots of fun songs and acting but full of meaningful content. We were also super surprised when Mrs Fitz made her acting debut!
This week, Crew Knowles have enjoyed reading all about the Gunpowder Plot and learning why we celebrate Bonfire Night. We have practised our reading fluency through paired reading and carefully critiquing each other against our fluency strategies.
As part of our faith day today, we have been working hard on creating some beautiful Rangoli patterns and designs linked to Diwali!
We had a brilliant science lesson today learning all about reproduction in plants and the different parts of a plant!
We built up our background knowledge, through watching videos, reading, playing games and finally dissecting a lily! Lilies are great to be able to see the different male and female parts of a plant really clearly!
Crew Knowles had a great morning at the library today! The staff were so lovely letting the children behind the desk and also setting up a treasure hunt for them. Some children even won some lovely handmade bookmarks for completing it! Thank you to Thorne Library for having us!
Well done to our Y5&6 footballers who took part in fixtures this afternoon against King Edward. Despite the results everyone had great fun and showed excellent skills throughout all the matches. Well done Y5&6!
In reading today we tried to be more active by finding our inference questions around the room! I was really impressed with everyones efforts in reading today and their skills to find appropriate evidence!
Another lovely week celebrating lots of success in our Year 5/6 Crews! Once again it was lovely to hear lots of shout outs linking to our character traits and hearing positive things about different children!
Keep up the great work everyone!
This week in crew, Crew Knowles shared their writing with each other offering verbal critique. We remembered to be kind, helpful and specific with our critique to support our peers with the rest of their writing!
This week in RE, we looked at building background information on the different forms of the Hindu god. We learned about Ganesha, Lakshmi and Vishnu to name just a few. We also managed to get in some active learning by moving around the classroom to collect the information!
