Extended Study!

As a teacher, it’s always exciting to see students take ownership of their learning and put in extra effort outside of the classroom. Lola and Jack are two such students who have recently impressed me with their dedication to completing their extended study.

Lola and Jack’s dedication to completing extended study serves as a great example to other students. Completing extended study is a crucial part of the learning process. It helps to solidify the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom. Lola and Jack have set a great example for their peers by showing that with dedication and hard work, completing extended study can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. Well done!

Mini Kicks

The children really enjoyed their first Mini Kicks session today. They practiced their dribbling skills and kick backs with coach Kyle and we are super excited for our session again next week!

Crew Knowles: immersion

Today we were introduced to our second case study – biology! We are looking forward to building on our KS1 knowledge of plants and animals and learn some of the more in depth characteristics of plants. Today, we created some lovely pictures to help decorate our classroom!

Crew Knowles: welcome back!

We’ve had a lovely first day back in Year 4 today! We spent the first part of the morning prepping for our upcoming SLCs and the second part, getting hooked into our science learning!

Our first case study is physics and focuses on electricity. We completed an electricity hunt around school and tried to decide whether the electrical devices were producing heat, movement, sound or light! We then sorted lots of electrical equipment based on whether it was mains or battery powered. A great start to our learning!

Accelerated Reader time!

We had a gorgeous Accelerated Reader session on Thursday this week.

We’ve really mastered these norms now and everyone was super engaged and getting lost in reading their books. There were lots of quizzes being passed too!

Also, a huge shout out to those children who have brought their reading packs in everyday this week and also for quizzing at home on your books too. I am noticing a huge difference with our AR data!

Keep it up superstars!
