Mrs McDonnell Mrs Baldwin
Welcome to our first term in Year 6,
I hope that you have all enjoyed the summer break and are ready to work hard this term! We have lots to learn and I am very excited about the topics we will be covering over the year. 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
This year, Y6 will go swimming this year due to missing it in Y5 – you will need to make sure you bring the correct kit for this. Swimming will take place on a Thursday afternoon.
Adults
Mrs Baldwin will be with us every morning for half of the morning and she will also cover the class one afternoon a week. During this afternoon she will take the class swimming and also teach P4C.
Homework, Spellings and Reading
Learning Log and maths homework will be given out on a Friday and are to be returned on 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 three times a week- it is very important that you read as much as possible. 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.
If you wish to contact me then please use the year6@elton.cheshire.sch.uk email or catch me at the end of the day.
