This week we will be doing some assessments to check on the children’s progress and to identify any gaps in the children’s knowledge.

 In Phonics, we will be learning to read and write words containing ‘ir’ (such as shirt and first). We will also be reading the words ’work’ and ‘house’ and writing the words ‘love’ and ‘your’.  

In English, we will be practising our sentence writing skills and will be writing part of a non-chronological report on birds.

In Maths, we will be continuing our work on place value for numbers up to 20. This week we will be finding one more and one less than different numbers up to 20.

In Computing, we will be practising giving and acting out instructions in preparation for programming some Bee-Bots.

In RE, we will be continuing to learn about the story of Matthew the Tax Collector and will think about what this story teaches Christians around the theme of friendship and God’s love.

If you have any questions or need help with anything, please contact us using the class email address (willow@st-barnabas.kent.sch.uk).
