Teacher: Mr Lowe

Welcome to Year 6

Welcome to Year 6: Year 6 is a brilliant and busy year! We hope that your child will continue to enjoy their learning journey with us, as well as developing independence to be ready for secondary school. They will study a broad and varied curriculum with us that allows them to discover and develop their interests.

Curriculum Overview

Term Plans

P.E.

Year 6 have their P.E. days on a Thursday and a Friday. Please ensure that their P.E. kit is in school on these days

Homework

Homework will be set on a Friday and due in the following Friday. Each week, this will consist of spellings to learn, a maths activity (linking with that week’s learning), and a comprehension or grammar task. The children will also be set half-termly topic homework. The expectation is that all children complete one outstanding piece of topic homework. If children wish to do more than one task that is fantastic too.

It is the expectation that your child’s reading record will be signed three times a week. This is to ensure that they are regularly engaging with texts and building their reading stamina. For those children that read more than three times at home, names will be added into our reading raffle with the lucky winner receiving a small prize.
