Current Topic - Term 6

With an exciting final term ahead for Year 6, there are some key dates to take note of. Please do refer to the newsletter for all upcoming events to celebrate Year 6 finishing their final term at primary school. Towards the beginning of the term, the children will be going to Little Rollright Farm as an introduction to our new science topic, where they will learn about ‘Living Things and Their Habitats’. This will be a good starting point to support us in exploring this interesting topic.

As the term progresses, the children will begin preparing for their Year 6 Graduation that is being held on Wednesday 15th July 2026.

Our new class text is 'The Boy At The Back Of The Class' by Onjali Q. Rauf. We will be applying all of our reading skills whilst exploring the text: predicting, clarifying language, making inferences, summarising and drawing on connections across texts and/or our own life experiences etc. The children will also have the opportunity to learn about and write their own biographies and, in addition to this, write a persuasive letter to King Charles, all of which will link closely to our key text.

In our mathematics lessons, the children will be continuing to develop their arithmetic skills, practising measuring and drawing angles and they will learn how to use a scientific calculator to carry out a variety of calculations. It is set to be a fun-filled term for Year 6 - watch this space! Thank you, as always, for your continued support.

Reminders and Routines

Children should be reading at least 5 times a week - please ask them to tell you what they are reading about.
Children should be practising their time tables - including the related division facts. This could be done using Time Tables Rockstars.
Children should be learning their spellings every day so that they are known "for life".
When they come to school, they need to bring a water bottle.
Take time during the week to complete their homework - they will get a piece of Maths and English each week. You can always check what homework has been set by looking in Google Classroom.

PE Days - Term 6

PE will take place on a Monday and Wednesday. (Children should come to school dressed in their PE Kit.)
