Welcome to Beech Class!

Beech

Hello and welcome to Beech Class

We are a class of year 5 and 6 children

Miss Durbin – Class teacher

Mrs Phipps – TA

Mrs Eliot - TA

Mr Hole – PE teacher

Technology

In classroom we have iPads and laptops that we use to help our learning. We do coding and programming in ICT sessions and also use many of the apps for different subjects including maths and music!

Reading

We are passionate about reading in Beech class and end every day with 30 minutes of independent reading. Once we have finished a book, we enjoy taking the accelerated reader quizzes to earn points, which gives us prizes at the end. Please ensure children have their reading books in school every day.

Outside

We enjoy playing and learning outside and try to get outside when we can. We enjoy using the school field, the trim trail and the playground in lessons as well as at playtimes. Please make sure you bring your wellies to school so we can play on the field. We also enjoy forest school sessions throughout the year!

Our learning

We explore our learning through topic work and different stories in literacy. We enjoy being creative and learning in different ways. We have literacy and maths homework that goes out on Friday and is due back in on a Tuesday.
