Year 6

Welcome to the Year 6 Class Page!

Welcome Year 6 class of 2021-22!

This term our theme is ‘Heroes and Heroines’.

PE days: Tuesday and Friday
Please read every day and write in your homework diary what you are reading/which pages. Remember to tell Miss Cross or Miss Bradshaw if you need to change your reading book.

Spellings will be sent out on a Wednesday and tested the following Wednesday. Children will write these in their reading diary at school. These are taken from our Read Write Inc. spellings booklets and the year 5/6 spelling word lists. There may also be some topic specific words/key vocabulary that we have come across throughout the week. Some children will focus on learning to spell high frequency words as part of their weekly spellings. There will usually be 10-12 spellings. You can use the Look, Cover, Write, Check to learn the spellings or use the ideas below:
