General Information
Homework
Year 6: Homework will be given out every Wednesday, starting the week beginning 7th September, and will be due back the following Wednesday. Parents and carers will receive an email each week confirming which homework pages need to be completed, and pupils will also be told in class.
Year 5: Children will be given a worksheet each Wednesday, alternating between Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar (SPaG), Reading, and Maths. Homework will begin the week beginning 7th September and should be returned the following Wednesday. Parents and carers will also receive the homework by email, and pupils will also be reminded in class.
Reading
Children are expected to read at least five times each week and record this in their Reading Records, which should be handed in each Monday.
There is a wide range of accessible and challenging books in our classroom, and all children are encouraged to read a variety of texts. Regular reading at home, even for 5–10 minutes, makes a significant difference to confidence, fluency and enjoyment.
SATs Booster Club
Our SATs Booster Club will run every Tuesday, starting on Tuesday 15th September. This will provide Year 6 pupils with additional opportunities to practise key skills, revisit important areas of learning and build their confidence ahead of the SATs assessments.
Regular attendance will be important, as the sessions will build on learning from week to week. Attending consistently will help children to identify and address any gaps in their understanding, practise applying their knowledge and develop the confidence and familiarity they need to approach the SATs with greater independence.
We strongly encourage all Year 6 pupils to attend the sessions regularly.
