Homework

Homework and supporting school work at home is more important than ever this year.

Our homework will focus on statutory spellings (Y3-Y6 words), reading comprehension, SPaG questions and arithmetic and problem solving skills. We will also be working through SATs practice books as part of weekly homework.

Reading remains a vital element of supporting your child's learning. Please continue to encourage your child to read regularly and continue to listen to them reading and share books together. 

Homework is set every Thursday and is due in the following Tuesday.  Please see the homework guidance attached in the files below and you can also find this on the inside cover of your homework book.

Please click here for this weeks homework sheet. I have also attached a copy of our spelling overview for Autumn too.

Our Year 6 Read Alouds...

Year 6 will be exploring a beautiful collection of fiction texts and poetry this half term. The children have the opportunity to vote for which book we will be reading next. 

Autumn Term Reminders:

PE: Y6 have PE every Tuesday morning with Mr Coleclough and Thursday afternoon (Mr Ault) this half term. Children should come dressed in their PE kit on these days. It is essential all PE jumpers/jackets are named. As the weather remains warm children must wear sunhats for PE.

Water: Children are encouraged to bring in a bottle of water each day which they can access at any time.  Please ensure your child’s name is on their bottle. Sunscreen and a sunhat may also be needed.

Snack: If you wish to send in a snack, please make sure it is healthy - no chocolate, crisps or sweets. We are a nut free school. Snack can also be purchased from the school kitchen using credit on your child’s dinner money account.
