In Phonics, we will be using 'il' and 'al' to make the /l/ sound. Our grammar focus for the week will be using capital letters at the start of place names. 

In Guided Reading, we will be using our Vocabulary, Inference, Prediction, Explanation and Retrieval skills to explore The Paper Bag Princess. 

In Maths, we will continue to focus on money. We will focus on finding the total in pounds and pence. We will compare values of money and focus on creating the same amount of money in different ways. 

In Science and Computing, we will be debugging algorithms so that our BeeBots can complete their specific quests. 

We will also complete PE, Design and the Arts, Mastering Number and PHSCE activities as well. If you have any questions regarding your child's learning, please do not hesitate to contact us directly using the beech class email address: beech@st-barnabas.kent.sch.uk
