What we will be learning this term:

A few things to remember:

PE

Hawks and Eagles have PE on a Monday.

Remember to wear the correct PE kit to school on PE days- black leggings/ jogging bottoms or shorts. White or house t-shirt. Wheelock fleece/ jumper or cardigan or house hoody for outdoor activities.
Spare outdoor footwear must be brought into school to ensure footwear is changed and inside school remains clean.

Home Learning

Autumn Term

Homework for Year 6 will be paper-based. This homework will be given out on a Friday to be returned by the following Thursday. The homework will consolidate current classwork and will consist of work of the following:

- 2 pages of work in the Maths CGP book

- a comprehension in your Comprehension CGP book OR a task set on Purple Mash

If you have any questions about Year 6, please speak to your class teacher before or after school.

In addition, children are expected to read frequently throughout the week (a minimum of three times). They may also access TT Rockstars and Purple Mash for additional homework

We will continue to use Accelerated Reader to support the children's reading journey; they should complete the associated book quiz each time they complete a book at home. We would expect to see the children complete an accelerated quiz at least twice a half term in Year 6.

Please note - time can be provided in school to complete homework if required- please speak to your child's class teacher who will be happy to help.
