Crew Knowles: Fronted Adverbials
We’ve been learning all about fronted adverbials in our English lessons and have focused on time, place and manner adverbials. We’re really starting to get the hang of them and identify whether the adverbial is telling us where, when or how something happened!
Anti-Bullying Week – 13th November
Anti-Bullying Week 2023 will take place from Monday 13th – Friday 17th November. The theme is Make A Noise About Bullying.
This week, your crew councillor will be leading a crew session where you can make some noise. What can you do to make a noise? Look out for our school video!
On Friday 17th November, we will be supporting Children in Need with a non-uniform day for a suggested donation of £1. Crew Council have voted to ‘wear something that makes you smile.’
You could wear your favourite jumper, dress up as your favourite character or just come in your pyjamas.
We will also be having a bake sale where you can buy a bun for 50p. If you would like to donate any buns, please bring them to the office.
Crew Knowles: Remembrance Poppies
We really enjoyed making poppies in crew this week to decorate our corridors to show our support for Remembrance Day.
Times Tables Rock Stars Challenge!
As part of our commitment to make maths exciting and high profile in our school, we are taking part in a friendly competition involving schools in England. The competition runs from 07:30 GMT Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 GMT Thursday 16th November 2023. It’s all done online via play.ttrockstars.com.
Children can play in any game mode with every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, earning themselves, their class and the school a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform will calculate the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours, subject to a daily 60-minute limit (see below). Winning classes in the school and in the competition as a whole will be the ones with the highest average.
To support player wellbeing, there is a daily time limit of 60-minutes per player. In other words, each player can earn competition points for up to 60-minutes between 07:30 GMT and 19:30 GMT on 07:30 GMT Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 GMT Thursday 16th November 2023. Once the player goes beyond 60-minutes of play on that day, they will still earn coins but will no longer earn points towards the competition.
Which Crew will be victorious? Who will rock their way to glory? Only time will tell…….

Year 2 weekly spellings
We want to let parents and carers know which spelling rules we have been practicing each week so that you can support your children at home too. They have done so well in their spelling sessions and some extra practise at home would be amazing! Please remember to share their learning in their homework books…thanks for always supporting us!
