  • Maths Home Learning: Term 1 Week 4

    Published 17/09/20, by Charlie Mackinnon

    This week we are exploring how 2-digit numbers can be partitioned in a variety of ways. We are using base-ten manipulatives, place value charts, whole-part models and bar models to support our understanding. We are also using addition calculations to record our findings. 

    For your Home Learning we would like you to watch this learning video and complete the attached worksheet. 

    We have also attached the answers so that you can check your work with a grown up. 

    If you need any help or support with this activity, please do not hesitate to contact us via the class email address: beech@st-barnabas.kent.sch.uk

  • Reading in Beech Class

    Published 17/09/20, by Charlie Mackinnon

    In Beech Class we are currently reading Journey by Aaron Becker and The Twits by Roald Dahl. We are really enjoying both of these books and would love to talk at home about them. 

    In Beech Class we expect all children to read for at least 10 minutes 5 times per week. Please bring your book bags and reading records in every day so we know how you are getting on with your reading. Please can you let us know when you are finished with a book by marking it as finished in your reading record. We will change books on a Tuesday and a Friday. 

    If you would like to contact us about your child's reading please use the class email address: beech@st-barnabas.kent.sch.uk
