Year 6 Curriculum Information 2021 - 2022
6L 6B Teacher – Mrs Bendelow Teacher – Mrs Jones Teaching Assistants – Mrs Asghar Teaching Assistants – Miss Cooper Organisational Information Learning at home: The first priority is always reading (because, once you can read well, you are then able to access all other learning). All children will read individually to an adult at least once per fortnight. The book that they have read, along with its page numbers, will be recorded in your child’s school diary on that day’s date. Your child will be given the opportunity to change their reading book daily. We encourage children to read at home every day. Children must ensure that their reading book and school diary are in school every day. The next two priorities are to ensure spellings and times tables are learnt each week. Spellings should be practised at home as frequently as needed, using Spelling Shed. There will be no spelling tests this year. The next priority is to choose 4 activities from the autumn grid below. These activities support and deepen ‘Discovery’ learning, and pupils can choose whether to ‘Make it, Find Out About it, Create it or Present it’. By providing flexibility and choice, we hope this will enable pupils and families to select activities that suit them, depending upon the amount of time you have, the equipment and resources you have at home or the amount of help that is available, etc Each week, the newsletter will include 2 questions for each class – these are entitled ‘Ladybridge Learning Conversations’, and are to support learning conversations at home. Any additional conversations/activities about learning at school are encouraged and will, through recall or retrieval, support long-term memory. Homework: We will upload homework to Class Dojo every Friday. Please then upload completed homework to Class Dojo by the following Wednesday. (Please ask if you require a paper copy.) Homework may include Maths, English or be related to topic learning, and is in addition to TTRockstars, Spelling Shed and reading, which should all be done on a daily basis. Starbooks will continue to reward children for reading four times per week. PE: PE will take place every week on a Tuesday. Your child should come into school wearing their PE kit on this day.
