We read lots of words with the ‘i’ for child in them such as behind, mind, kind, rind, find, wild and mild and matched them up to to the picture that showed the word. Some of us also did the ‘ear’ for hear and the ‘oi’ for coin. This reading activity worked perfectly on ‘No Pens Day’. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/DB563109-78CC-40E1-9668-13B805B48719.jpeg) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Phonics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/phonics) [English](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1505.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-27-year-5-litter-picking) Previous ### [Year 5 - Litter Picking](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-27-year-5-litter-picking) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_3154.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-27-year-4-maths-three-times-tables) Next ### [Year 4 - Maths: Three Times Tables](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-27-year-4-maths-three-times-tables) ### Personal Development - [News](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
