Primary Class 1 (and Lyla) – Lockdown

11th January 2021Mr Barnes

Class 1 has a new theme for this half term, Space!

The class will be looking at all manner of things to do with Space, from the planets and solar system to both fiction and non-fictions books all about the great beyond.

In todays reading time, the class were very lucky to have Beacon Primary’s very own Lyla join them for their story. The story in question was How to Catch a Star by Oliver Jeffers.

Over the next few weeks the children will once again produce a huge amount of fantastic work for their classroom display, which I can’t wait to see and to be able to update you all with.

Well done Class 1! (and Lyla!)

Until next time…. It’s one small step for man….. One, giant leap for doggy kind!

Primary Class 2 – Lockdown

11th January 2021Mr Barnes

The children who are attending The Beacon Centre and are in Mr Popple’s class have begun their work on their new class topic.

This topic is Ancient Egypt! The children will be looking at all aspects of life in Ancient Egypt including its culture, geography and key events. They will be examining a range of non-fiction texts and producing some fabulous display work as always.

In this lesson the boys were looking at the key features of non-fiction texts, they were then able to list the features and talk about which ones they felt were the most important.

As always Mr Popple was on hand to help the boys with any issues they might have had.

Well done Class 2!

Thank you
