Reading is a huge focus at Teagues Bridge Primary School. We encourage the children to read their reading book along with books that spark their interest- this can all be recorded in their reading diary.

Value of the Month
The value of the month is Equality. Base 7 have been developing their understanding of equality and the importance of being respectful of others. Within class we have discussed the importance of celebrating differences within school and community.
Respect is the most important value at Teagues Bridge as every child must feel respected and safe within school. Every month we will have a values champion who will be announced by Mrs Abdulla in assembly.
Along with this, we are focusing on Spain as our flag of the month!
Term Theme
This term our topic is called Trade and Economics
Throughout this topic, the children will focus on answering the questions ‘Is international trade a good thing? Why is trade so important?’ Belugas will learn about the three different types of production and the main imports and exports from the UK. The children will learn about the location of El Salvador in relation to the UK and the impact of globalisation on trade within the world. The children will go on to learn about the importance of Fair Trade and where the UK gets the energy from to power our homes.
Our love to read book this term is ‘Street Child’ by Berlie Doherty. The children have expressed their excitement to read this book. Each day we will read a quality picture book in our reading for pleasure sessions, which all children look forward to at the end of the day.
In Science, Base 7 will be learning about the human life cycle and about the changes of the body during puberty. They learn about the development of a baby during pregnancy and about the birth of a baby.
