Week Beginning 14th March

 Due to the fact that Year 6 have been working so hard all week, I need to catch up on some marking!!  Therefore there is a slight change to their homework this week.  Both Numeracy and Literacy homework is to create mind maps, or summarise their learning so far in a poster form for displaying around the year 6 classroom, stars and house points will be awarded not only for the most accurate and detailed information, but also for the brightest and most attractive posters!

Please remember that this coming week, sheets for parent consultations are also being made available in school.  Please sign up to discuss your child's progress.

Thanks,

Mr Bishop and Miss Ward

Week beginnning 7th March 2011

Phew… we are 6 weeks into it, with only 4 booster weeks left. 
Congratulations year 6 you have now completed all 6 of the main genre types in literacy!  We now move onto more general revision for literacy, looking at skills that need to be present in all writing, regardless of genre.

Remember Friday next week is Comic Relief (Do something funny for money) - dress up as, ‘Where’s Wally!’  Also just a brief apology, with all the SATS boosters and general year 6 craziness, the Romeo and Juliet DVD is not quite finalised yet, it should be out sometime this coming week.  If you still haven’t ordered your copy and would like to do so, its not too late (£5 payable at the offices)

Enjoy your weekend, and don’t forget to get your parent to sign your
diaries.

Week beginning 28th February

Back into our regular routine!

I do hope your half term has been enjoyable and relaxing, however now we are back into the flow with our booster sessions.  With only 6 full teaching weeks this half term it is imperative that you complete the homework each weekend in order to support and consolidate our learning from the week.

As this is our first week back and we had a few unusual happenings (someone even said they spotted Batman at school whilst I was absent for a day!?), therefore homework this week is generic (the same) for all groups.  Try your best and don’t forget to get parents to sign your homework diaries.
