Welcome to Beech Class

2020-2021

In Beech Class you will find....

         Mrs Smith (Mon - Wed)      Mrs Stevenson (Thurs - Fri)           Mrs Dunk - LSA (Mon-Fri)

There are some new timings and routines that we will be getting used to, to ensure we all stay safe but we will go through any changes on our first day together.

Our Quest for the Autumn term is - Our Wonderful World.

In English we will be focussing on the book 'Here We Are - Notes for living on Planet Earth' by Oliver Jeffers.

In Maths we will be working on Place Value for the first few weeks back, including learning about Roman numerals.

PE sessions will take place on a Wednesday and Friday afternoon. Children can wear their PE kit to school, instead of getting changed.

If you have any questions then please feel free to contact us on our class email beech@eastsomersetfederation.co.uk or through the school office.

Thank you,

Mrs Smith and Mrs Stevenson

Home Learning in Beech Class - September 2020

We are using various different ways to support home learning across the school and wanted to list them, along with steps to help access them. If we were in a position where we had to enter lockdown again, then we would be using these different platforms regularly to set work.

Google Classroom

We are in the early stages of using Google Classroom. It is a great platform for setting work that the children can do online and then 'hand in' virtually for us to view and respond to. All the children have their own log in and can only access their own work. Log in information has been sent home, but please contact us if there are any issues. 

Please see log in information below.

TT Rockstars

We have been using TT Rockstars as a school for a couple of years, with great success. The children really like the challenge and competion element of it, alongside helping them to learn their times tables. This is particuarly important in year 4 as they have the Multiplication Tables Check at the end of the year.

All the children have their own log ins, which they have taken home.

Spelling Shed

Mrs Stevenson will upload the class spellings on to Spelling Shed each week. It enables the children to play games in order to help them to learn their spellings.

All children have their log ins, which they have taken home.

Get Epic!

We have started using Get Epic to encourage and support reading. It offers a wide virtual library of books, comics and audiobooks, which the children are able to access for free Monday - Friday - 7am - 4pm. Outside of these times, parents can use their email to sign up for a further 2 free hours.

Children can use the class code to access their own profile.
