Homework - Times Tables, Reading and Spellings
Please try to practise your spellings and times tables every day. Spellings will be given out each half term and are tested a Friday. 

You should aim to read every night - even if it is just for 5 minutes - but the minimum is three per week. Please remember to get your reading record signed by an adult but feel free to add a comment in yourself. Reading records will be checked every Friday. 

Maths and English homework will be set weekly on SATs Companion.  

PE

Our PE lessons will be on Thursday with PDS. Please come into school on a Thursday in your PE kit. Don't forget to remove/cover any jewellery (including watches and earrings) and make sure your hair is tied up if it is long. You can bring in a roll-on deodorant only. 

Swimming lessons will take place on a Thursday for 10 weeks. A letter will be sent home when the lessons are due to start. A reminder that no jewellery (including earrings) are permitted. Swimming caps can be bought from the school office for £2. 

Summer Term 

In English, we will be completing some short pieces of writing and focusing on reading comprehension and grammar in preparation for SATs. In maths, we will be completing revision activities, focusing on developing reasoning and problem solving skills. In science, we are learning about light and we are continuing to go swimming as part of our PE curriculum. Year 6 are excited to start Tackling the Blues this half term as part of our PSHE curriculum. Our unit in history is the Mayan Civilisation and we will be completing an art unit based around this topic too.
