Homework
Homework will be given out on a Friday and is due to be returned by Wednesday. There will be a large emphasis on homework in year 6 this year, children will often be required to a text from our SATs reading text books and complete questions from what they have read. Homework shall usually consist of spellings, a maths activity, a grammar task and a reading task.
Spellings will be sent home each week.
Other points of noteWe ask that children read every day and input this into their reading journal.
You can follow Year 6 on Twitter using St_JamesYear6. This will be a great way to keep up-to-date with daily goings on in year 6.
