Homework Focus

In Year 6 Homework is particularly important. Not only does it help to develop understanding of work from the classroom but also enables children to develop independence and organisation that will stand them in good stead at secondary school.

 

The structure of homework in Year 6 is as follows: 

  • Individual reading book (daily), using their selected AR book, Bug Club.
  • Spelling practice (daily) based on the weekly spelling patterns taught or spellings in their vocabulary booklet.
  • English Grammar (1 x weekly)
  • Reading Comprehension (1 x weekly)
  • Maths (1 x weekly), based on the skills/ concepts taught in the week.
  • Mental arithmetic (1 x weekly)
  • SATs Revision (Spring Term)

Pupils may occasionally be given additional work to revise or research information in relation to the current unit of work.

 

P.E.

We have P.E. on Thursdays. You must come dressed in the correct P.E. kit. 

P.E. is important as it is a fun lesson, designed to improve your health and wellbeing.
