Reading: Children in Year 6 are expected to read at least 4 times a week for a minimum of 15 minutes. We have a reading challenge in class where we are aiming to read 1,000 times as a class - I wonder how long it will take for us to achieve our goal? Please encourage your child to read at home as much as possible and talk to them regularly about what they are reading. 

Spellings: Children will receive weekly spellings which they are expected to learn at home so they can apply the spelling patterns in their independent written work. As well as their weekly spellings, the children are expected to learn the Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 statutory spellings. 

Learning By Questions:  Children have their own independent study code, which enables them access to any learning tasks set for them to complete. They will be set a weekly Maths/SPaG tasks on a Friday, which they are expected to complete by the following Friday.

Times Table Rockstars: Just 5 minutes a day practising quick recall of multiplication and division facts can have an extremely positive impact. Please encourage your child to login to TTRS daily and to get involved in the whole school TTRS Premier league where classes go head to head against each other to earn league points and prizes for their class.
