Year 6 Weekly Home Learning 5.05.23

IT’S THE FINAL PUSH …

The children are very clear about what they need to do and the areas that they need to develop. Please look at the ‘How to Help Your Child’ button on the Year 6 page. There are lots of resources for the children to access as well as the revision boxes that are in the classroom.

READING- Have a go at the short reading task. Please also ensure you’re reading for AT LEAST 40 minutes per day.

GPS- Have a go at the revision maps I have sent you- there are three to do! One for each day of the long weekend!

There may be other areas you want to go over that you have identified from the last paper you completed.

With just 2 weeks until the end of year assessments, we have ramped up learning in class. The children are very clear about what they need to do and the areas that they need to develop. Please look at the ‘How to Help Your Child’ button on the Year 6 page. There are lots of resources for the children to access as well as the revision boxes that are in the classroom.

Maths - Please complete the reasoning paper that I sent you home for homework. There is a good mixture of questions in the booklet that will challenge your reasoning. Read the question carefully! You need to decide how best to work through these so that it will benefit you individually- if you need to work on your time then you need to get an adult to time you!

GPS - Have a go at the GPS paper that I have sent you home for homework.

SPELLING FOCUS - i before e, except after c. This is a really tricky rule! Focus on it.

What other spelling rules do you need to revise?

cashier, priest, mischief, deceive, receipt, mischief, believe, brief, niece, diesel, hygiene, fierce, siege, grief, receive, perceive, inconceivable, yield, efficient, conscience

OPTIONAL REVISION

Keep helping yourself to the revision material in class and remember there is revision classes at lunctime if you want to- this is also a good time to go over any questions you found tricky in your homework!

Message to Parents

This year really is flying! The children are being asked to work incredibly hard in class and our pace of learning is incredible. As always, the children are rising to every challenge that they are being set.

After this week, we have 5 weeks until our assessment week. Maintaining a balanced curriculum is really important. They have to experience learning in all of the other subjects as well as the increased focus on Maths and English. There has been huge progress made in these areas because the children are so motivated and determined to do well.

Intrinsic motivation and the children being determined to succeed will inevitably lead to their success. Effort breeds success.

Please do get in touch if you need any more support.

REVISION FOR OVER THE EASTER HOLIDAYS

SPELLING - Revise all of your spellings from your spelling book. Which words are you finding tricky? Is there a particular rule? Can you re-learn some of the spellings you have got wrong in your quizzes?

GPS - You have a short paper to work through at home. Are you comfortable with all concepts? What could you research further? Could you use IXL for further consolidation?

MATHS - I have given you a reasoning paper to have a go at over the holidays, reason your way through this along side an adult for support. I have added White Rose Home Learning to the button below. You can watch videos to help you in any area of maths that you are not sure about.

READING - Have a look at and work through the reading paper sent home- this time why not time yourself. Just give yourself 20 minutes to complete each section. Then go back at it another day and reflect on whether you stuck to time or on the areas you spent too long on. Timing in this is key, that is why fluency is so vital. Read every day!
