In PE this term we are learning to develop our cognitive skills, our learning goals are as follows; ALL of us can follow simple instructions. MANY of us can understand and follow simple rules. SOME of can name things we are good at. For the last 3 weeks we have been working on our dynamic balancing skills. We have been discussing together, what a dynamic balance is, how we maintain our balance and how we perform these movements in a smooth and controlled manner. Our yellow and green challenges are included in our slideshow, feel free to have a go at home!
We have been exploring maps. We have learned about the use of compasses and how maps are usually orientated to have North at the top and South at the bottom. We have applied our previous learning about human and physical features and been able to identify then and where they can be found on various maps.
We have been discussing the importance of money and the different values of coins. We have been able to make similar amounts with different coins. We are able to add different amounts together and give simple change. we have learned how to make an amount using the smallest amount of coins.
This term we are looking at developing our cognitive skills. Our learning goals are as follows; ALL of us can name some things we are good at. SOME of us can explain why someone is working or performing well. MANY of us can explain what I am doing well and identify areas for improvement. We are working together to meet our learning goals. In our warm ups we have been athletes on our very own track! We have been taking turns in pairs doing a lap each on our track, trying to be faster each time. When its our turn to rest, we're not just resting, we are coaches trying to motivate and encourage our teammates to be faster. We have challenged ourselves by putting together movement sequences on our

Despite the bad weather, our Kindi children love being outdoors. With our project focus being that of Geography and dinosaurs, we thought we would try and become familiar with all of our immediate environment. Understanding that there are lots of places to play and hide, the children are now exploring all areas of the school grounds in preparation for our big dinosaur hunt! We understand that rain is a necessary part of any school week as it helps our plants to grow as well as helping us get extremely mucky which in turn, lets our adults know we have had a very interesting day.

In reception we have been learning the number 10! We have made our learning fun by building, creating and playing using number 10 as our focus.
Year 2 had a wonderful first Forest School session. We decided to take care of the birds due to the cold weather and lack of food for them to eat. We used ice-cream cones, oranges, lard and seed to create bird feeders. We then enjoyed a hot chocolate around the fire circle.
Today six Year 2 children, Mrs Ware and Mrs Hitchmough had the pleasure of attending the launch of Liverpool's 2020 Year of Reading. Schools, organisations and authors attended the launch of a year of Reading celebrations. Many motivational and inspirational speakers were present at the launch including; Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson, Tim Quinn, former writer, artist and editor at DC Thomson and Marvel, now of Mighty Quinn Management, Tony Lloyd, chief executive of the ADHD Foundation, Hayley Butler, head of marketing and communications at the Reading Agency and our very own Jude Lennon, children’s author. Counsellor Barbara Murray who hosted the event wants everyone in the city to discove
We have been exploring countries, places and environments that we could ride to on our Magic carpets! We had lots of different choices. Decisions, decisions!
We have been focused on using different equipment to accuaretly measure length, capacity, temperature and mass this week. We have improved our understanding to make some accurate predictions. We now understand the importance of accuracy when we need to measure.
With the Christmas festivities behind us, we now find ourselves in a bitterly cold January half term. Just because Santa may have retired for the year does not mean we stop in Kindi! Moving at 100mph as usual, the children and their teachers are enjoying our new focus book, What the dinosaurs did last night. Very much like the huge hit Toy Story, the book tells us the story of what our toy dinosaurs get up to when we are not around. As incredibly mischievous toys they make huge messes wherever they go, resulting in the dog getting blamed amongst other innocent bystanders. The book provides many different learning opportunities and avenues for us to explore as a class, so we are all very exci
The children had a gift delivered to Reception this week. We all guessed what it could be…it was a Naughty Bus! Look what we have been up to….
Every morning in Beech we work very hard as soon as school starts! We love to practice our learning from either English or Maths in order to gain confidence and further develop our skills.
The children had a wonderful time watching the Panto on Friday. It was a fabulous show which all the children thoroughly enjoyed. They were very good at 'booing' when required and joined in with all the songs that they knew. They particularly enjoyed watching Mrs Webb and Mrs Tynsley take part in a 'dance off' where they joined the actors on stage and did some super dance moves.
