3 Mrs Turner
Welcome back to the shortest half term this year!
Well done for raising £37.79 in your raisin boxes. Sadly, our class didn't win but we will be fourth to play on the new playground when it's finished.
Our class is 3T or Penguin class and alongside me (Mrs Turner) there will be additional support from Miss Fraser.

Weekly timetable
Our days for PE are Tuesday (outdoor) and Friday (indoor).
Please send your child to school in their PE clothing not uniform on these days.
Black shorts and a white t-shirt and trainers or
Black or grey jogging trousers and sweat shirt.
Please do not send them in football shirts or brightly coloured shorts or t-shirts. Many thanks.
Our curriculum
Every morning our learning will focus mainly on reading, writing and maths. We use Talk for Writing to help shape and guide the children's writing and Take One Book for reading. Our new maths scheme is White Rose.
In the afternoon we will study the other curriculum subjects. Our learning will be divided into subject topics which we will focus on for several weeks rather than covering each subject each week. We have found this not only increases the children's knowledge and understanding but also their engagement.
These are our topics for this term:
PSHE - The world around us
Science - How rocks are formed? Soil study
Geography - Cities in the UK. Study of Manchester and the Lake District. Mountains in UK.
History - Who was Alexander the Great. Who were the Ancient Greeks?
RE - Why do Hindus want to collect good Karma?
French - members of the family
During the year I will add to the curriculum areas shown below. This will include photographs of the children's work and links to useful websites and additional activities. In previous years my class have enjoyed being able to share their work with their families. I hope you enjoy our class page too.
If you have a question, worry or concern please speak to me on the playground at hometime or use my school email ... turnerclass@morlandprimary.com.
