Important Dates
Mock SATs - Week commencing 9th February
Reading
We are passionate about reading in Year 6! Our goal is to make sure each child finds books that they love to read.
It is essential that each child reads their colour band reading book to an adult or older sibling at least once a week. The purpose of this book is to improve reading fluency and children will be practising reading it aloud. This is a vital part of your child's learning and as much practise as possible is ideal!
You must sign your child's reading record each time. Homework diaries are checked every Friday.
Spelling
Children will be given one set of spellings every week to practise at home. Children will be tested every Friday. These spellings have been carefully selected to prepare your children for the SATs spelling test.
Spelling rules will be taught on Friday. Please ensure your child can read the words and investigate the meaning of them.
Number Facts
Children must know all their number facts to be able to access the maths curriculum in Year 6. To ensure that they are secure in these areas children can access TT Rockstars and Numbots.
All children must know:
All muliplication facts up to the 12 timestable
All division facts up to the 12 timestable
All addition and subtraction facts within 20
P.E.
On Mondays children will need their P.E kits for indoor/outdoor sport sessions. Please ensure that your child has the correct PE kit.
PE kits are as follows:
- White/red t-shirt
- Black shorts
- Black leggings/joggers
- Suitable trainers (Not studded football boots)
- Black sweatshirt
Please ensure your child's PE kit is plain.
