Year 6 Homework Timetable- Spring term

Dear Parents,

This term the children will bring home some workbooks for homework in addition to Mathletics.  Details are in the timetable below for dates when these will be set and days these are due back in school.

Please do encourage your child to complete their homework on the correct days. Not only does this support their learning but it is good preparation for high school.

If you have any concerns, please do speak to me.

Kind Regards

Mrs Reece

Extra work can be done on: Spelling Shed, Purple Mash, Rising Stars Reading, Times Tables Rock Stars , Tables Master  which all have lots of additional , relevant practice.

BBC Bitesize is also a useful resource.

Tune into Radio Merseyside on 12th November at 2.30 pm,  to hear some of our Year 6 children talking about the WOW! project.

We are very proud of these two sporting superstars who have been selected to play for the Liverpool Schoolboys Team. Read below how they achieved this.

Dear Parents

Welcome to Year 6- I’m sure you are wondering where the time in primary school has gone for your children to be in Year 6 already !

 I'm Mrs Reece and I am really looking forward to teaching your child this year. The children in Year 6 are full of energy and look to be wonderful learners full of exciting potential. A positive work ethos makes all the difference to your child's learning, so your support from home is welcomed and encouraged.

 Our class is fortunate to work alongside Miss Morgan who supports children with their learning in Readwise and one-to-one sessions such as Precision Teaching and target work.

Every Friday, homework will be set online through Purple Mash, Spelling Shed and Mathletics. It is important this homework is completed before the following Thursday, so the work can be assessed.

 Reading is a crucial aspect of learning, particularly in year 6, so we actively encourage the children to read every night at home in addition to the reading they do in the classroom. One reading book and linked comprehension activities will be set for all of the children through Purple Mash each week and they will also have access to a wide range of books through Rising Stars Reading as well as their reading book.

Year 6 also have access to Timestable Rockstars. We recommend children play on this daily to ensure they revise all of their times tables up to 12x12, as these skills will enable them to access and complete calculations more quickly in arithmetic and mathematical reasoning. Head over to our Year 6 Curriculum page to find out more about what your child will be learning this year.

If you have any concerns or questions, please do make contact so we can work together to support your child.

I look forward to working with you as the year progresses.

Mrs Reece.
