Here’s what we’ll be covering over this term in Year 6:
English
In English, we will be doing some writing based on our class story ‘Holes’. We will also be revising all the grammar we’ve covered in preparation SATs.
Maths
In maths, we will be revising all the things we’ve learnt in year 6 ready for SATs. We will then be learning about spirals and data after SATs.
Topics that we will be covering across the half-term
We will be learning about spreadsheets in computing; architecture in art; and mountains in geography. We will continue to learn to play the keyboard in music.
PE
Our PE days are Tuesday and Wednesday.
We have cricket and athletics in PE this half-term.
Please ensure children have the correct kit in school for when they need it.
Homework
This is the homework children will be expected to do:
Children need to read at home at least 3 times per week and log this on Boom Reader.
Children need to learn their spellings each week.
Children get maths homework on Fridays and this is due on the following Wednesday.
Children need to complete 20 minutes of TT Rockstars.
We check this every week and any homework not completed will be completed during breaks and lunchtimes at school with support from staff.
We will offer lunchtime clubs for children to stay in to complete any of their homework if they choose to.
Thank you for your support with your child’s learning.
Planned Trips
On the afternoon of Friday 16th May, we will be going to Memorial Park for the afternoon to celebrate the children completing their SATs.
Dates for your diary
Children will sit their SATs from Monday 12th May – Thursday 15th May.
Every morning of SATs week, children can come in for a free breakfast from 8am.
