Year 6 Information

In English this year, we will be reading a range of engaging texts and developing our reading and writing skills. Each of our texts will have a fiction and non-fiction writing outcome.

We hope to foster a love of books and reading through our teaching of reading. Each child will receive a reading folder containing a reading book, reading record book and useful information. Children should bring their reading book to school daily. Children will also have a reading book which they can choose independently. When reading at home, please write the date and book title in your child’s yellow reading record with a short comment to communicate with us in school that you have read with your child. Be sure to discuss the new vocabulary and ask your child lots of questions about what they have read.

Your child will have a daily Maths lesson using our White Rose Maths programme, which teaches children mathematical concepts through pictorial, practical and written methods in order to develop a deep understanding, confidence and competence in Maths and improve fluency.

The wider curriculum will be taught in the afternoon, including Science, History, Geography, Religious Education, Design & Technology, Art and Computing lessons. The children also have weekly sessions of Music, P.E. and P.S.H.E.. More information on these can be found by clicking our Curriculum Overview button above or head to our school curriculum pages here.

6L and 6G both have PE on a Tuesday this term. Please ensure that your child comes into school in full P.E. kit on this day.

Homework will be set via the Seesaw app. There will be weekly Maths (Times Tables Rock Stars and Mathletics), Reading and Spelling activities and there will be a half-termly project that will be showcased and celebrated in assembly at the end of each half term. If you misplace your child’s Seesaw details, please contact a member of the Year 6 team-we will be happy to help with this.

If you have any questions about Year 6 please speak to a member of our staff at home-time or contact us via Seesaw or leave a message with the school office.

 

Our Year 6 Educational Visit to Crosby Beach

As part of of geography field work, Year 6 visited Crosby beach to observe evidence of coastal erosion and habitat type.

We noted and sketched features of erosion and how we try to prevent it, including the moving of sand dunes, the growth of marram grass and human interventions such as groins pushing out into the sea.
