Over the past two years we have been working towards achieving a prestigious Artsmark Award which recognises a settings contribution towards the arts. We are delighted to announce that during half term we found out that we have been awarded an Artsmark Gold Award. The Artsmark Award is the only creative quality standard for schools, accredited by Arts Council England. It supports schools to develop and celebrate arts and cultural education, putting creativity and wellbeing at the heart of the curriculum. Artsmark ensures every young person can be creative and access a diverse, high-quality cultural education. We have seen a huge impact upon both children and staff at Captain Webb with initiatives such as Indian drumming on World Music Day as well as extra-curricular dance clubs. Here is some of the feedback we were given by the Artsmark assessors: “You clearly value the arts and recognise their contribution to supporting your pupils' emotional well-being and self-confidence.” “You have used your Artsmark journey to develop children's cultural capital by commissioning various theatre groups, including Loud Mouth Theatre, Hobgoblin Theatre Company and Image Theatre Company, so that every child has enjoyed watching live performances.” “Music is a growing strength within your overall arts offer with lessons provided by specialist music teachers throughout the whole school, including EYFS sessions delivered by 'Music Minors.” “It is great to hear that you are beginning to develop pupil voice through your Arts Committee, and that they have relished the opportunity to work with your new partner, 'Primary Workshops' to plan and deliver Indian drumming workshops throughout the school in celebration of World Music Day.” “Teachers' confidence has increased because of working alongside music specialists. They have also strengthened their fine art skills by participating in training on the use of sketch books, led by Go Sketch.” “Clearly, the dance club specifically for boys was also a successful initiative, with their performance at a local theatre supporting positive learning behaviours.” Captain Webb Primary - Arts Mark Statement of Impact Captain Webb Primary - Arts Mark Statement of Commitment
- Spoken Word | captainwebb
Spoken Language Reading and writing float on a sea of talk. James Britton What is Spoken Language? The national curriculum for English reflects the importance of spoken language in pupils’ development across the whole curriculum – cognitively, socially and linguistically. Spoken language underpins the development of reading and writing. The quality and variety of language that pupils hear and speak are vital for developing their vocabulary and grammar and their understanding for reading and writing. Curriculum Intent At Captain Webb Primary School, we value Spoken Language as an important part of the children’s entitlement to a broad and balanced curriculum. Spoken Language provides the children with the opportunities to develop and extend skills and an opportunity to express their individual interests, thoughts and ideas. Our aim is to enable the children improve their levels of spoken language so that all pupils are able to communicate effectively and confidently in front of any type of audience. These skills are encouraged in every area of our curriculum as good communication skills can enhance every type of learning. The children are encouraged to explore ideas through talk; challenge each other’s opinions and develop their own reasoned arguments, as well as talking in full sentences with a clear and confident voice. Pupils should be taught to: listen and respond appropriately to adults and their peers ask relevant questions to extend their understanding and build vocabulary and knowledge articulate and justify answers, arguments and opinions give well-structured descriptions and explanations maintain attention and participate actively in collaborative conversations, staying on topic and initiating and responding to comments use spoken language to develop understanding through speculating, hypothesising, imagining and exploring ideas speak audibly and fluently with an increasing command of Standard English participate in discussions, presentations, performances and debates gain, maintain and monitor the interest of the listener(s) consider and evaluate different viewpoints, attending to and building on the contributions of others select and use appropriate registers for effective communication. Spoken language: speaking, listening & responding Implementation The teaching and implementation of the Spoken Language curriculum is based on the Early Learning Goals and National Curriculum; it is supported by expectations from the Voice 21 framework, ensuring a well-structured approach. These skills are at the core of our curriculum and pupils are encouraged to listen and learn from sharing ideas with others. Staff at Captain Webb model the use of higher level vocabulary within their speech and expanding children’s vocabulary is a key focus in all years. Subject specific vocabulary is embedded across the curriculum, through teacher modelling, in context. Contextual learning helps children to understand new words and supports them in including new vocabulary in their work. This model is reflected in both shared and guided reading sessions, where children are given the chance to explore unfamiliar vocabulary and expand their knowledge of words. Talk partners are used extensively throughout the school, together with a range of planned learning opportunities that encourage pupils to explore language e.g. role play, drama activities, group discussion, hot seating. In KS2, pupils also take part in class debates. Drama is used across a range of subjects including History, problem solving in Mathematics, hot-seating during English lessons and Religious Education,. to explore and engage children in their learning. This gives children the chance to embed the use of specific vocabulary repetitively. At Christmas, EYFS and KS1 children perform their Christmas production to the school while LKS2 produce and lead a production of drama, jokes and songs at Easter. At the end of the academic year, the Year 6 children perform a tailored production to parents and carers. All pupils also perform to their parents once a year in their year group assembly. Daily poetry and rhyme and singing sessions are prioritised in EYFS and KS1. All year groups have a core set of poems that the pupils learn off by heart and perform in assemblies. Our pupils need lots of opportunities to speak and listen. This is especially true of pupils with special educational needs (SEND) and/or pupils with English as an additional language (EAL). Within every day teaching, we use a range of resources to support communication e.g. visuals made with Communication in Print, word banks, sentence stems, speaking frames. Some pupils take part in small group activities (Talk Boost) and some pupils receive additional support e.g. speech and language assistant or therapist. Impact Constructive formative feedback is provided to pupils regarding their spoken language and listening skills, not only to improve their knowledge and skills but also to establish secure foundations for effective spoken language at primary school right through to secondary education and beyond. Pupils at Captain Webb Primary School have a wide vocabulary and are confident speakers. They enjoy talking amongst peers and to adults in school and demonstrate excellent listening skills. Poetry Day - October 2024 Below are some video clips of our children reading out poems they wrote/covered on Poetry Day, working alongside the poet James Carver.

- D&T | captainwebb
D&T Curriculum Statement Intent Our intent is to provide our children with an engaging, exciting and empowering curriculum that allows them to develop as confident responsible citizens equipped with the skills that will allow them to be successful in our ever-changing world, both in the present and the future. We believe that childhood should be a happy, investigative and enquiring time in our lives. We constantly provide enrichment opportunities (memorable experiences) to engage learners and develop their cultural capital which has been recognised as essential if children are to succeed. We believe that our children should not only reach their best academically, but also develop a thirst for knowledge, foster a love of learning and leave our school with exceptional independent learning skills. We are fully committed to developing each child's unique potential within a secure and caring environment. We use our Captain Webb Values to promote positive attitudes to learning: Listen Encourage Achieve Respect Nurture At Captain Webb, we want children to be inspired and enthused by the idea of designing, creating and making. Our Design and Technology curriculum allows children to exercise their creativity and become critical thinkers. Throughout their time at Captain Webb, children make meaningful cross-curricular links and apply the knowledge and skills they learn in other subjects to produce meaningful products. Our practical, design-centred learning teaches children to take risks and become resourceful, innovative and enterprising individuals. Through our Design and Technology curriculum, we provide pupils with key knowledge, which enable them to develop the skills required to become future builders, designers and engineers of the world. Implementation Our pupils leave Captain Webb with all of the knowledge and skills required to be innovative risk-takers. Our curriculum has been thoughtfully planned to ensure that the knowledge children have is built upon within every Design and Technology unit. Knowledge within our Design and Technology curriculum is split into several stands, including: Food, Cooking and Nutrition, Structure, Textiles, Mechanisms (KS1) and Mechanical & Electronic Systems (KS2). These are mapped out across year groups to ensure progression. Our planning ensures we teach the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to engage in the exciting process of designing and making. Children are required to plan and create products that consider function and purpose, and which are also relevant to real-life scenarios. Children look at existing designs to analyse and assess their effectiveness and then they consider ways of redesigning and reconstructing it to improve its overall success. At Captain Webb, we encourage children to use their imagination to design and make products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts. Our children are required to consider others’ wants and needs by following a design brief. Design and Technology at Captain Webb is often taught as a block, or sometimes timetabled as a whole day, so that children’s learning is focused throughout each unit of work. At the beginning of each topic, initial assessments are completed to determine prior knowledge and ensure that progression is consistent. Evaluation is a key aspect of the Design and Technology process and children are given the opportunity to assess and ‘tinker’ their designs, continually looking to improve their work. Impact As well as monitoring of attainment, the impact of effective Design and Technology teaching is assessed through the pupil’s ability to evaluate, design, make and improve their own work. The impact of Design and Technology is also evident within the opportunities we provide to develop cultural capital. We do this across the curriculum and throughout the school by: Working with local companies to promote future career choices Cooking for a purpose so children learn to be passionate about working with, preparing and tasting food Implementing a high standard of hygiene learning when working with food Using tools to help children manage risks Visiting local restaurant’s to help children embrace cultural influences on the food we cook and the diversity of the ingredients available for us to cook with Displaying products that children have made so they can experience the suitability first hand (bird houses in forest schools) Designing and creating for a purpose when making a blanket for a local care home Studying famous engineering experts through STEM and communicating ideas and developing prototypes using CAD Involving children in enterprise activities so children can begin to make links between cost of produce and materials, and the profit that can be made Design and Technology Policy 2023.25 D&T Skills and Knowledge Progression Plans

- Phonics | captainwebb
Phonics Curriculum Statement What is Phonics? Phonics is the method of teaching reading through the identification of sounds and graphemes. All words are made up of individual sounds. These sounds are merged together to form words. e.g. in ‘mat’ we have the sounds ‘m’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ship – ‘sh’, ‘i’, ‘p’. A grapheme is another name for the letters we use to write the sound. The spelling of that sound on the page. The new National Curriculum ensures that all children are taught Phonics systematically. This gives your children the tools to read any word. What is Read Write Inc? At Captain Webb, we use Read, Write, Inc. an inclusive synthetic phonic programme to teach our children to read, to write and to spell. We have adopted this as our whole school approach as the programme facilitates a graduated and tailored approach to learning basic sounds and letter formation before advancing to more complex sounds and reading for comprehension. The programme moves with integrity from learning to read to reading to learn. This video, taken from the Ruth Miskin website, explains the scheme in more detail: https://youtu.be/sjlPILhk7bQ Teaching Phonics at Captain Webb We start teaching the programme in your child’s Reception year and then continue until they have worked their way through the whole reading scheme. Our aim is for all children to complete the programme by the end of the first half term of Year 2. Those children who have not reached the expected level by the time they leave KS1 will continue to access the RWI programme and receive additional targeted intervention to ensure they catch up with their peers. RWI is taught through daily phonic lessons where we teach sounds. Children practise reading and spelling words containing these sounds, then we give children decodable books containing sounds and words they can read. They read each storybook four times at school and again with you at home. We assess all children on the scheme every half term, to ensure that they are placed in the appropriate group for their reading ability. This also allows us to quickly identify any children who need some support to access the learning at the level of the group. If this arises, we provide one-to-one tutoring for the child in accordance with the Read, Write, Inc scheme, to help them make rapid progress and once again be at the level of their group. Groups are taught by either teachers or teaching assistants who have had Read, Write, Inc phonics training; in utilising so many staff, we can ensure that groups are kept as small as possible and that the teaching the children receive is tailored to their needs. To find out more information on the half termly progress expectations for Phonics, please click on the link below. Half Termly Progress Expectations - Phonics In Reception, children begin by learning the Set 1 sounds. Set 1 Sounds are taught in the following order together with rhymes to help children form the letters correctly and instantly recognise sounds ready for blending. For the set 1 handwriting rhymes please click on this link. Handwriting Rhymes They also begin learning to blend sounds together to make words after learning the first 5 sounds, firstly through practising oral blending, also known as Fred Talk. Then, when they can blend independently, they progress on to reading green words. As soon as children can read green words, they begin to read stories in their Read, Write, Inc sessions. Each storybook is matched to the sounds they can already read, which sets them up for success and helps to build their confidence with reading. Each colour set also contains 5 non-fiction texts It is through these storybooks that we teach children red words, which are irregular words that are not phonetically plausible and cannot be sounded out (Fred Talked). Each storybook is taught in the same way, with children practising reading the green words in the story and also the red words, before they begin to read the book. Children will then read the book several times to help build their fluency and comprehension skills. Order of Story books: Children will hopefully follow the order listed below. The expectation is that all children will leave Year One as confident speedy readers, ready to take on the challenges of Year Two. However, some children may need extra support and your teacher will talk to you about this. Books Green Words in Books Red Ditty 1-10 Read More Green 1-10 Read More Purple 1-10 Read More Pink 1-10 Read More Orange 1-12 Read More Yellow 1-10 Read More Blue 1-10 Read More Grey 1-13 Read More When the children move on to Green story books, they will begin to learn Set 2 Sounds – the long vowels. When they are very confident with all of set 1 and 2 they are taught Set 3 Sounds. Speed Sounds Set 3 Nonsense Words also known as alien Words As well as learning to read and blend real words children will have plenty of opportunities to apply their sound recognition skills on reading ‘Nonsense words also known as alien words’. These words will also feature heavily in the Year One Phonics Screening check in the summer term. To find out more about the Year 1 Phonics Screening check please click on this link. https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/at-school/primary-school-assessment-tests/year-1-phonics-screening-check/ Spelling Spelling will only start in Reception when children are ready to write and form their letters. Children will use first use ‘Fred fingers’ to first sound out a word before they write it down. Children learn how to spell rather than just get tested. Furthermore, this way of teaching spellings allows children to use Fred fingers whenever they get stuck with spelling a word. Children pinch each sound on fingers before writing the word. What can you do to help? 1. Use pure sounds, not letter names We teach using pure sounds. We pronounce the sounds clearly, using pure sounds (‘m’ not’ muh’, ’s’ not ‘suh’, etc.) so that your child will be able to blend the sounds together to make words more easily. To hear how to pronounce sounds correctly, watch the following video. https://youtu.be/s6OiU2h3sUI 2. Use Fred Talk to read and spell words (see above) 3. Listen to your child read their Storybook every day. 4. Read aloud a variety of stories to your child every day. Our school library has a wonderful selection of picture books, speak to our admin team about loaning out books to read at home. You can access online resources (see below) where there are tips and videos to give you more information to help you to understand more about Phonics, Read Write Inc. and how to practise reading and writing with your child at home.

- Music | captainwebb
Music Curriculum Statement Intent Our intent is to provide our children with an engaging, exciting and empowering curriculum that allows them to develop as confident responsible citizens equipped with the skills that will allow them to be successful in our ever-changing world, both in the present and the future. We believe that childhood should be a happy, investigative and enquiring time in our lives. We constantly provide enrichment opportunities (memorable experiences) to engage learners and develop their cultural capital which has been recognised as essential if children are to succeed. We believe that our children should not only reach their best academically, but also develop a thirst for knowledge, foster a love of learning and leave our school with exceptional independent learning skills. We are fully committed to developing each child's unique potential within a secure and caring environment. We use our Captain Webb Values to promote positive attitudes to learning: Listen Encourage Achieve Respect Nurture Music and singing are integral to the life of a Captain Webb child. We provide a vibrant musical experience for all children with fun and enjoyment at its heart. Our objective at Captain Webb is to develop a curiosity for the subject, as well as an understanding and acceptance of the validity and importance of all types of music, and an unbiased respect for the role that music may wish to be expressed in any person’s life. We are committed to ensuring children understand the value and importance of music in the wider community, and are able to use their musical skills, knowledge, and experiences to involve themselves in music in a variety of different contexts. We provide opportunities for all children to compose, play, perform and enjoy music. Through our music curriculum pupils will gain self-confidence and a sense of achievement. Children will develop their capacity to express ideas and feelings through the medium of sound. Extra-curricular clubs such as our school choir, musical theatre club and instrumental lessons enhance our curriculum offer. Implementation Music is firmly embedded into everyday life at Captain Webb. We deliver a clear and comprehensive scheme of work in line with the National Curriculum. Music is taught for one hour weekly. Music lessons in both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 are taught by a specialist teacher from Telford and Wrekin Music. EYFS have music sessions delivered by Music Minors. Utilising specialist teachers ensures knowledge and skills are progressive from the age of 2 to the age of 11 as well as giving our children the opportunity to experience learning instruments from experienced tutors. This also ensures that children receive high quality music provision and that teachers receive valuable, regular CPD. Charanga is also used to support key concepts and includes many examples of music styles and genres from different times and places. These are explored through the language of music via active listening, performing and composing activities, which enable understanding of the context and genre. In doing so children gain an understanding into different methods of creating notes, as well as how to read basic music notation. They also learn to compose focussing on different dimensions of music, which in turn feeds their understanding when playing or appraising music. Weekly music lessons are just the start here at Captain Webb. Singing and music underpin everything that we do which is evidenced in our Gold Award from Artsmark. One of our popular extra-curricular clubs is our Key Stage 2 Young Voices Group where we make community links and sing at our local Dawley Christmas Light Switch On. We also perform in homes for the elderly which both the children and adults thoroughly enjoy. Our extra-curricular clubs and ‘Music of the Month’ enhance our cultural capital and children hear music from Beethoven right through to Ed Sheeran. Singing is also embedded in our weekly singing assemblies and we are proud to say we are a Sing Up school that supports children in finding their voices. Telford and Wrekin Music also deliver high quality small group and 1:1 tutoring sessions for Pupil Premium children in keyboard and guitar weekly. In addition to this they also deliver 1:1 vocal and violin sessions to KS2 children who have opted to receive extra musical tutoring. There is plenty of opportunity for children to sing and play instruments as part of our Captain Webb’s Got Talent showcase every summer. Children at Captain Webb regularly experience live music in the form of theatre shows and live bands. Live performances add to the music offer all children receive and provide opportunities for Pupil Premium children that they might not otherwise experience. Impact All children will benefit from a high-quality music education which engages and inspires them to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians. It will increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement. As pupils progress, they will develop a growing musical vocabulary that allows them to critically engage with music. Teaching and learning of music is a reflective process for the children as they are given the opportunities to assess themselves and their peers. The children also celebrate their success and skills with their peers and wider audiences. Assessment is used to help teachers to help children. We assess through ongoing teacher questioning and observation. Video evidence which captures each child’s progress throughout the year is taken 3 times per year so time isn’t taken away from children’s learning. Children also complete a termly vocabulary check assessment against the musical elements. All assessment is used to ensure children are progressing appropriately and where they are not adjustments are made to our curriculum to ensure these gaps are plugged before moving on. We utilise pupil voice regularly as a means of engaging children in their own learning and what they would like to see in their Captain Webb music journey. As part of our music provision, we achieved an Excellence in Music Provision Award from The Music Partnership and our Year 3 pupils received a Distinction in Music Performance from the University of West London.

- EAL | captainwebb
EAL - English as an additional language What is EAL in education Teaching English as an Additional Language involves supporting learners to access a mainstream curriculum taught in English. For those learners, English is not their first language – they are acquiring proficiency in the language while also learning subjects through English (Sharples, 2021). Who might be an EAL learner There are various contexts in which EAL provisions are offered. At Captain Webb we may provide such provision for learners arriving from abroad (such as children of migrants, refugees, etc), or perhaps to learners who speak a language or languages other than English at home and therefore need some support to acquire this additional language. What is “EAL provision” in practice Accessing the curriculum EAL learners need support to access curriculum content that is delivered in English. Typically, they are learning the same content as other learners. Gaps in language knowledge may be barriers to accessing content due to their current level of English. The role of an EAL specialist teacher is to identify those gaps and to support learners in overcoming them. Those gaps could relate to any skill (reading, listening, speaking…), or system (vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation), and are not mutually exclusive. The EAL teacher works alongside the class teachers. They help learners to access subject content “in the moment” during class. In practice, that might mean clarifying instructions, supporting with a reading text, teaching and concept checking keywords for the topic, or providing sentence stems or ‘process language’ to help learners articulate their thoughts… At a planning level, the EAL teacher may adapt content to make it more accessible. For example, they might grade a text or use text enhancement techniques to draw attention to important features of the language, bring accompanying visuals to build context, create scaffolded tasks to help learners process the content, create consolidation tasks, provide graphic organisers to help record learning, plan tasks to help develop learners’ knowledge of word formation, and so much more. Developing general communication skills EAL support is not just about accessing the academic aspects of a curriculum. EAL learners may also need to develop their general level of communication in English, which can help them on a day-to-day basis. School is a place for building friendships, expressing oneself, developing interests, and much more besides just acquiring academic skills and qualifications. In order to better integrate into a school community, EAL learners need to feel confident to communicate in and out of the classroom. The role of an EAL teacher is also to facilitate learners in developing such skills. EAL Policy 2024.25
- Wrap Around Care & Clubs | captainwebb
WRAP AROUND CARE Pas de clubs parascolaires pour le moment The school runs a Breakfast Club every morning during term time. The cost is £2.50 per session. Although we do not currently request you book for Breakfast Club we do ask that you inform the school in advance, if you intend to start sending your child, so we can ensure the correct staffing ratios are in place. At Breakfast Club children are offered a breakfast of cereal, toast or crumpets, and have fruit juice, milk or water as drink options. The school does not charge for the breakfast, it is an added option for those children that have not eaten before attending, or who are still hungry. At Breakfast Club the children can play games, use the IT suite, read or do their homework. Breakfast Club starts at 7:30am and runs through to the start of school. The children are escorted from the club directly to their class. Your child can be dropped off anytime from 7:30 to class start time. After School Club The school runs an After School Club every day during term time, between the end of school and 6pm. Your child will be escorted straight to After School Club once the school day has ended. The cost per session is: £4.00 up to 4.15pm £5.50 up to 5pm £8.00 up to 6pm After School Club places must be booked in advance by completing the form below, and returning to Miss Mansell in the school office (or by email to jess.mansell@taw.org.uk ). Once she receives your application she will be able to advise you of availability of requested places. It is essential that After School Club places are pre-booked to ensure appropriate staff ratios are in place. Unlike Breakfast Club there are no other staff available to cover if additional numbers are needed. We do not provide a meal at After School Club, but are happy if you wish to send in a snack for your child. At After School Club the children can play games, use the IT suite, read or do their homework. In addition they also do occasional activities such as baking, watch videos and have dance sessions. In the summer they also play games outside, weather permitting. After School Club Booking Form TERMLY ACTIVITY CLUBS Each half term the school runs various activities after school. Most of our clubs are run by Crossbar (a third party company who are specialist in sports education, who work alongside our school). There is a charge of £2 per session for these clubs. Afterschool clubs run by the teachers are free of charge. To ensure clubs are accessible to all children, clubs will be advertised on Classdojo and Facebook with information on when they will be available to book on to. A date and an approximate time will be given. Clubs will be available to book through Scopay (our online payment system) simply by consenting and making payment, however please make sure you book early as the clubs are very popular, and will be on a first come first served basis.

- Memorable Experiences | captainwebb
Expériences mémorables Offrir aux enfants des « expériences mémorables » significatives est un ingrédient clé de l'apprentissage à l'école primaire Captain Webb. Au début de chaque thème semestriel, chaque promotion part soit en visite, soit en journée thématique animée par un expert du domaine. Cela permet aux enfants de faire l'expérience, de première main, d'éléments importants pour chaque domaine d'apprentissage thématique; entendre et utiliser le vocabulaire clé ; contextualiser leur écriture et leurs mathématiques et développer une solide compréhension des concepts historiques, géographiques ou scientifiques pertinents. Nous offrons également à nos enfants de nombreuses opportunités d'apprentissage en plein air grâce à des visites d'une journée et résidentielles au Arthog Outreach Centre au Pays de Galles et à un voyage résidentiel en France en sixième année! Notre objectif est de garantir que (en visitant des musées locaux et régionaux et des sites d'intérêt historique et géographique) les enfants quittent notre école à la fin de l'étape clé 2 avec un capital culturel et une profonde appréciation d'où ils viennent. Un enfant qui passe ses années d'école primaire à l'école primaire Captain Webb aura vécu deux journées thématiques dirigées par un enseignant à l'école ; a fait quatre voyages dans la communauté locale; visité cinq sites d'intérêt local; appris de quatorze experts dans leur domaine; visité huit points de repère géographiques et historiques et expérimente des artefacts et des expositions de neuf musées différents ! La réception a fait l'expérience d'une gamme d'animaux exotiques dans le cadre de leur sujet sur « Que se passe-t-il lorsque nous nous endormons ? L'année 2, visitez Park Hall Farm au début de leur sujet « Muck, mess and Mixtures » L'année 4 a construit un tipi le « Native American Day » pendant le thème « Road Trip USA » et a visité le Langley Science Department pendant leur thème « Potions ». L'année 5 a fait l'expérience d'être Tudors lors d'un atelier sur leur sujet « Off with Her Head ! » L'année 6 a visité le Birmingham Sea Life Centre dans le cadre de leur sujet « Frozen Kingdom ». Voici ce que notre conseil des élèves a à dire sur les expériences mémorables de l'école primaire Captain Webb : Qu'est-ce qu'une expérience mémorable ? « Quand nous avons des visiteurs experts ou lorsque nous faisons des voyages dont nous allons nous souvenir » Pourquoi faisons-nous des expériences mémorables ? Pour passer un bon moment et se souvenir de ces expériences pour toujours - même lorsque nous sommes plus âgés Pour vous aider dans votre apprentissage - pour voir les choses dans la vraie vie Pour nous aider dans notre écriture – afin que nous sachions sur quoi nous écrivons. Cela le rend réel pour nous. Vous pouvez imaginer les choses plus clairement lorsque vous les apprenez. Pour nous aider avec tous les autres sujets aussi. Ils mettent le vocabulaire dans des situations de la vie réelle. Parfois, nous l'utilisons pour faire des travaux contextuels en mathématiques. L'année dernière, nous sommes allés au zoo de Chester et nous avons pu concevoir le nouveau parc lorsque nous en apprenions davantage sur la région. Nous pouvons passer un bon moment et nous souvenir des bons moments passés dans notre école. Lorsqu'un expert intervient, il peut nous aider. Ils nous aident à apprendre. Si vous allez dans un musée, vous ne pouvez pas poser de questions sur les objets… mais vous pouvez les poser à un visiteur expert ! Les expériences mémorables vous aident-elles dans votre apprentissage ? Oui... surtout en écriture, maths, thème, sciences, lecture, histoire, géographie et RE (quand on va à l'église) « Si nous ne faisions plus d'expériences mémorables, nous ne verrions pas les choses dans la vraie vie et cela affecterait notre apprentissage. L'école serait loin d'être aussi bonne. Selon vous, quelle a été votre meilleure expérience mémorable jusqu'à présent ? West Midlands Safari Park parce que nous avons pu faire des manèges qui ont aidé à notre écriture narrative qui se déroulait dans un parc à thème. Western Park parce que nous fabriquions des jouets et que nous apprenions les jouets. Park Hall Farm parce que j'ai pu voir tous les animaux sur lesquels nous apprenions. Le spectacle Golden Ticket parce qu'on a vu un clown. Voir un scientifique disséquer un cœur parce que cela nous a montré à quoi ressemblaient toutes les chambres du cœur. Pizza Express parce que nous devons faire une pizza ! Nous sommes allés dans une ferme et c'était super parce que nous avons pu voir une course de cochons. Inoubliable! Faire un vrai tipi quand nous apprenions à connaître les Amérindiens parce que nous avons vécu comment ils vivaient vraiment. Stone Age Center parce que nous avons dû utiliser du vrai charbon de bois pour faire des œuvres d'art, tout comme les gens de l'âge de pierre.
