In Year 6, children are expected to read every night at home in order to develop their fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. All children have a homework diary in which they should record which page of their book they are up to. In addition to this, children receive a page of Maths homework per week. This goes home on a Wednesday and must be back in school the following Monday.
For Spelling homework, each fortnight a group of 14 words will be uploaded onto RMP for children to practise.
Looking for more inspiration? Books for topics is a BRILLIANT resource for finding books on all subjects and for all ages. You can sign up to their blog and mailing list and get recommended reads straight to your inbox every month.
We have P.E. every WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY afternoon, so please ensure that your child comes in their correct kit on these days. Kit should include school P.E. t-shirt, school jumper, tracksuit bottoms or shorts and trainers.
