Reading

It has been super to see how many of you are reading and are thoroughly enjoying the books you are currently reading this half term, keep up the great work! Reading is a part of your weekly homework. Ideally you should be spending around ten to fifteen minutes each day reading your book. Even though you are now becoming more independent readers, you may still want to discuss your reading with an adult at home, or perhaps even try and persuade them to read to you sometimes!

We should see evidence of what you have been reading, along with a brief comment, in your reading journal, which should be in school every day. If you are struggling to find something to read, then talk to us and we will do our best to help. If we can see you are struggling to make time to read at home, we will take some time to discuss this with you during a break or lunchtime so we can help you to overcome this issue. 

Maths

 Times tables are a fundamental part of maths and if you have rapid recall of these, you will find many elements of maths much easier. To help with this we expect you to practise your times tables every week. For maths homework this week, we have set up a soundcheck and battle on Timestable Rockstars. Get rockin'!

Theme

This week you have blown us away with your scientific knowledge Year 6. You have demonstrated what a courageous bunch of children you all are when you were dissecting a lamb’s heart! For homework this week, we would like you to create something that demonstrates everything you have learnt about the circulatory system. It needs to be informative and creative! Have a look at the list below for some ideas:

• PowerPoint
• Create a video/animation
• Write a song/rap
• Write an informative text
• Poster/leaflet
• Make a 3D model of the heart

You can bring your work into school for Wednesday 3^rd November at the latest or if you have produced them electronically, you can send your work to our school email addresses:
