I am so proud of this group of mathematicians this afternoon – not only did they complete their work to a gold standard but they smashed their ME and achieved green standard by completing some really tricky two step word problems! Well done guys – what a great start to the week!
Wow! The children in class five have absolutely blown me away today. They have used all their learning about coal mines to write a recount from the perspective of a child working in the mine. I was really impressed with how the children shared their writing and offered critique.
Truly incredible work – I can’t wait to share the finished pieces with you all.
Today we held our first ever Student Led Conferences – the children did a fantastic job sharing their learning and beautiful work, speaking about what they are proud of and what they need to work on to get even better.
It was brilliant to see the children articulating their learning so well with the help of their teachers.
We had a lovely treat in Nursery sampling different ice cream flavours and talking about our favourites. We also had a go at drawing and colouring in our own ice cream pictures.
In Year Two we came dressed in yellow and blue today with an aim to raise as much money as we could to send to our donations directly into Ukraine to help people who need it. We also spent time in crew discussing all the pledges we could make to help make our world a better place.
We have had an absolutely fantastic day exploring the history of Doncaster. The children took part in a workshop studying artwork, handling artefacts and asking expert questions.
The children took lots away to help them with their expedition – Diverse Doncaster – Where do I belong?
They all behaved impeccably. They were kind and considerate to other members of the public – several people commented on how well they conducted themselves. All of the grown ups were very proud to enjoy the day with your children.
I’ve put together a video of photographs from our day – I hope you enjoy them.
It was so lovely to complete our daily mile in the sunshine today. It woke us up after lunch and helped us to feel alert and ready for maths.
We used a variety of equipment to represent numbers to 50 by making tens in maths today. The children were great collaborators and were able to demonstrate their explanation and reasoning skills whilst supporting each other in their learning.
