Beech Class, Week 1, Spring 2, 28.02.25

Date: 25th Feb 2025 @ 10:56am

Our first week back after the half term break has been busy but lots of fun in Beech Class.

In English we have started looking at 'Castles'. We have explored the different features of them and their uses. We also have had fun acting out the jobs people did years ago in castles. We have been working hard with our handwriting and spelling too and making sure we use these skills in our other lessons.

In maths we have started a new topic - Fractions. We have looked at 'equal' and 'unequal' parts and the importance of this with fractions. We have investigated finding a half and a quarter of a shape or an amount and we will be continuing this topic next week too.

We have explored healthy lifestyles during our PSHE lessons this week with Mr Carroll. We have looked at how to eat a balanced diet, personal hygiene, sun safety, internet safety and how to keep our bodies healthy.

In PE this half term we will be focussing upon skills to use in invasion games and gymnastics - developing balances and rolls.

Computing lessons this week have been lots of fun creating algorithms to move characters on screen using Code Studio. 

VIP was 'Writing Champions' this week and was awarded to Teona and Archie for showing good application of spelling in their writing.
