Year 6
English: This term (Summer), we will be looking at the genres of narrative writing, letter writing, debates, balanced arguments and persuasive writing, drawing on our focus text ‘The Final Year’.
Maths: We will be looking at shape and space, revision of units in preparation for the Year 6 SAT's. Following the completion of the SAT's, the children will complete Maths investigations along with transition learning inline with the children's move to secondary school.
For a more detailed overview, please see the curriculum overview at the bottom of this class page.
Homework
This term the children will bring home an English and Maths CGP workbook, along with study guides for both. Homework pages will be set on a Tuesday, which will then be marked the following Tuesday. It is extremely important that homework is completed and brought into school by the deadline. Support will be available in school during lunchtimes, should your child require support to complete the task.
In addition to this set homework, each week your child should read aloud most days and their reading record books signed. They should also continue to work on learning all their times tables up to 12x12.
Class Routines
PE will take place on a Wednesday (Mrs Cotterill) and Thursday (In2Sport) PM in the Spring and Summer Term. Children should come into school in their PE kit on these days. No earrings or watches are allowed. Children need to have a blue PE shirt, blue shorts and/or jogging bottoms, a warm jacket, trainers and socks.
As ever, if you require any further information, please come and chat to the class teacher after school or send an email via the school office secretary@st-michaels-school.org
