Our Learning
Welcome to Turing class! Here you will find our newsletters, photos of our topic work and any important information about our class. Our class is taught by Mr Rourke Monday to Thursday.
It's going to be a busy term!
Our topic this term
Our topic this term is Bustling Bourton! We will be exploring the History and Geography of our amazing village! We will be doing lots of field work, and using primary sources to find out how Bourton has changed over the ages. As well as this, we will explore some of the current issues that face Bourton to this day!
During week 2 we will have a low-key assessment week to gain a clear baseline of where everyone is.
Important Class Information:
PE Days: Tuesdays and Fridays. Children need to come to school wearing their PE kit.
Reading Books: reading books will be changed on Tuesday.
Homework: A homework grid for this term is attached below.
Reading: Please continue to listen to your child read daily, even for 10 minutes, and encourage them to complete the reading task in the reading journal. Books should be changed regularly.
Times Tables: It is important all pupils are learning (and continue to practice) the timetables up to the 12 times table. These should be known by the end of year 4 but it is essential that the children continue to practice and recall these facts. Please keep up to date on TTRS.
