Welcome To Year 6

Hello and welcome to Year 6.

This year, we are looking forward to our exciting residential trip to Runways End in November. We have some interesting history topics, including the British Empire and the Ancient Maya, and in Science, we will be learning about Electricity, Light, Evolution & Inheritance.  In DT, we will be making working fairground rides using cogs and pulleys and designing and building shelters. Children will also continue to learn French, along with continuing to develop skills in all subject areas.

In Year 6, weekly spelling homework is set every other Thursday and consists of spellings, home reading and revision tasks to prepare the children for the SAT tests in May.  The children will shortly be using SATs revision workbooks to complete their homework and parents will be given more details about the tests in due course. Times tables are still a major focus of children's learning and the school subscribes to Times Table Rockstars which is available on most devices as a website or an app.  Children are encouraged to play at least 5 minutes of times table games at least 3 times a week at home, as well as working on times tables in class, and there are always various competitions and incentives throughout the year.

PE - Wednesdays and Thursdays 

Library - Monday

In Year 6, children are encouraged to choose their own reading books to take home.  We have a range of books in the class and the school library.

If you have any questions, feel free to speak to your child's class teacher at the end of the school day, or send a message on the Year 6 email - year6@leeslandschools-fed.co.uk
