No homework set over Easter Holidays. However, we have reminded pupils to keep on top of some regular reading, times tables practise and some revision if and when they can. They can make this fun by playing educational games or following online videos. It is a long break - we need to keep their school brains ticking over!

Although, it is also important everyone is well-rested and enjoys making memorable moments with family and friends over the holiday.

We wish you all a lovely break and thank you for your continued support. 

HOMEWORK FRIDAY 17th MARCH

Dear year 6 parents,

We are sending home set A of the SATs practice papers we completed in school. Along with the marked papers, all pupils should have the associated mark schemes. We are not setting homework this week (Friday 17^th March) but ask that some time is taken at home for an adult to talk through these papers with pupils. Also, we are tiffin-making next week: Tues Woodpecker, Weds Puffin, Thurs Owl class. Please ensure you have all the ingredients you will need.

Some pupils are yet to complete their tests - so these will come home next week.

At this point in the year, we were looking for pupils to achieve the following scores to be deemed “on track” to be at age-related (pass) by May 2023:

• Reading: 27 out of 50 or above [or for Greater Depth: 40 out of 50]
• SPAG: 34 out of 70 or above [or for Greater Depth: 53 out of 70]
• Maths: 54 out of 110 or above [or for Greater Depth: 92 out of 110]

With a few months still to go, we are very proud of how hard all the pupils are working. If you have any further questions, please email your child’s class teacher.

Many thanks for your continued support,

Year 6 teachers.

Friday 16th December - Home Learning (due to school closure)

As the school is closed to pupils today, we have set online learning for all year 6 pupils on www.satscompanion.co.uk All pupils should have their log ins for this at home – however, we will also email these out to parents this morning.   

We have set: 2x science tasks linked to next term’s learning; 3x maths revision activities; 1x SPAG revision based on last week’s lessons; and 2x reading skills activities. If pupils manage to get a score of 70% or more on a task, they will earn trophies, gems and coins! Most activities have a teaching tutorial video to support the pupils’ learning before completing the tasks. Please may we ask that year 6 pupils also spend some time on TT Rockstars as we are trying to win our battles!

For any pupils who do not have access to electronic devices, please feel free to complete pages from your homework books (Reading and SPAG) for extra revision.  

Also, pupils should be reading for at least 20 minutes.  

Thank you for your continued support.
