Home Learning

Children have CGP books for their English and Maths home learning; teachers will let them know on Thursday which page(s) they need to complete for the following Tuesday. Please encourage your child to look over their home learning on Thursday, so their teacher can answer any questions on Friday. 

Spelling words to learn are given out weekly on a Monday and tested in class on Friday. See this half term's spelling words below:

Year 6 Spring 1 spellings

Children are also expected to be reading for 20 minutes a minimum of 5 times a week, as well as practising times tables as necessary.
