Year 6 2020 - 2021
Miss Mathison
Welcome to Year 6's class page!
Love Learning, Love Life
Always Aiming High
Welcome to our first term in Year 6,
I hope 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
Like last year, 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. 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.

As we approach the SATS, any time that you can give to practising maths and grammar skills would be very beneficial.
