They listened and identified different sounds that they could hear. They then tried to make the sounds that they had heard. Albie heard children playing, Eli heard the wind, Fletcher heard a football bouncing, Roman heard Year 2 children playing and Charlie heard the birds tweeting. Super listening! ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/AFB46246-98F5-424D-96B1-5503C5163E89.jpeg) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [English](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/A28863AD-FB28-46F0-9257-6C43FF265204.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-09-13-year-2-investigating-local-animal-habitats) Previous ### [Year 2 - Investigating local animal habitats. ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-09-13-year-2-investigating-local-animal-habitats) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/493861D4-FB60-4808-84F7-7C103D7BE8ED.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-09-14-reception-library-trip) Next ### [Reception Library Trip](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-09-14-reception-library-trip) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://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://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
