Welcome to our final term in Year 6,
I hope you have all enjoyed the Easter break and are ready to work hard this term! We have lots to learn and I am very excited about the topic we will be covering over the next term. There will be a huge focus upon number strategies this half term; everybody must have quick recall of their times tables (in and out of order) to help us undertake complex sums more efficiently.
PE
Like last term, Danielle (PE coach) will be teaching one session of PE and I will be teaching the other. You must have your PE kit with you for both lessons which will be on Monday and Friday. It may be best to bring your kit in on a Monday and take it home on a Friday so that you always have it ready for our lessons!
Homework, Spellings and Reading
Learning Log and maths homework will be given out on a Friday and are to be returned for a Wednesday. Occasionally, we may give out a piece of homework that lasts for a longer period of time, such as a mini-project. Reading books should be changed frequently and do not forget to bring your reading record and reading book in everyday so that we can keep track of the books you are reading. Reading records will be checked on a Tuesday and a Friday and I expect to see that you have read at least twice a week. Finally, spellings for the entire term will be glued into Learning Logs during the first week of term and I expect people to be practising these week by week – these will also be on the Year 6 class page.
