Homework

Maths Homework is set every Monday, on MyMaths, and is due the following Thursday morning. If you do not have access to an iPad, laptop or device for your homework, please speak to Miss Pattison before Thursday and she can help you. If you are struggling with your homework, Miss Pattison will be available some lunchtimes to go over this with you so please do not worry! 

English Homework is set on a Thursday and is due in the following Tuesday. You will have homework books, but most of your work will be set online on our Google Classroom. Please make sure that it is handed in on time. You will be given spellings to learn each week, as well as some SPaG and sometimes a writing task. Handwriting should be completed in your homework books. Talk Homework will be handed out every two weeks!

Reading 

Reading is a very important skill and Year 6 is no different to any other year. You will be expected to have a reading book in school every day. This book should go home and someone at home should try and read with you at least once per week - this should be recorded on Boom Reader.  Your reading book should be returned to the classroom each morning and taken home again each evening. You will also be expected to access Reading Plus at home and you will have a target to meet each week. 

Year 5 and 6 may seem a terrifying year, but it will be the best year yet! 

You will need to work hard, and we have a lot of catching up to do, but we will also have so much fun. There are so many brilliant things which happen in upper juniors. If you are ever worried, please go and talk to Miss Pattison - she is always there to help and support you!
