G31 Year 7 POL – Tonight! @ XP Gateshead
A Fairytale Tea Party @ Norton Infants
This morning, we have researched key dates throughout history linked to mining. The children then used their research to create their own timelines! A huge shoutout to everyone for a great focus on their Craftsmanship & Quality!
This week, we put our fluency skills to the test and the children worked in pairs to use fluency assessment grids to assess their partners reading. They used the grid to highlight and give supportive critique and feedback to each other. It was lovely to hear lovely, kind feedback being shared! Well done everyone!
As a school we are always trying to find ways to improve our curriculum and the opportunities that we provide for the children. We are currently looking at our music offer and are interested to know your thoughts.
If you think your child would be interested in learning to play a musical instrument, please complete this form.
Thanks in advance
A huge well done to all of our winners in our community crew assembly today. It was great to be back after the Easter holidays and celebrate all of these amazing achievements!!!
A huge well done to Crew Schon on 100% attendance!
Well done to all of the readers who have achieved their reading certificates this week…there were so many of you!
Congratulations to Henry and Kuba, whose writing has improved so much they have been awarded a sparkly pencil!
And of course a huge well done to our Crew champions this week! I love hearing the reasons why you deserve to be champions each week…we are all so proud of you!
We’ve had lots of fun this week as we learned about length and height in our maths sessions. We compared some objects in our classroom and measured them using non-standard measurements such as wooden sticks, paper clips and blocks. We even compared ourselves!
We found out that Mikayla is tallest in our class and that Leven is the smallest!
Great job as usual, superstars x
Fantastic skills used in our research lesson today. I love the way that they worked together and found out important facts about these historical monarchs. Well done class 8!
This half term Year 5 will be taking part in XP outdoors every TUESDAY during G-Block. Children will need a change of appropriate clothes and footwear each week.
We are also lucky to have a YourPE coach again this half term. PE will be outside every FRIDAY so children will need their outdoor PE kits. It is important that children have appropriate footwear to avoid injury.
Thank you for your support with this,
Year 5 Crew
This week we took chair drumming outside in to the lovely sunshine!
Well done to everyone for joining in. We even looked at some different musical notations!
We definitely have some musicians in the making!
