“Shaping Futures with Determination and Kindness.”

SATs Are DONE!

Congratulations to all of the children - you have worked so hard to get to where you are! 

 

Welcome to Year 6  

Teacher: Mr. Williams

TA: Mrs. Mitchell

English

We will be honing our grammar skills through looking at past SATs papers and assessment style questions. We will be then conducting short writes to develop our writing skills in readiness for our transition to year 7.

 

Maths

We will follow the White Rose Small Steps and continue our journey from year 6 into year 7 by revising and then building upon knowledge of our maths learning in KS2. We will be continuing with arithmetic sessions to build up a secure understanding of the procedural approach to tackle these types of questions. We will be conducting a transition unit o prepare us for the next step in our education. 

Reading

We will be reading a range of texts within the reading lessons as well as promoting reading for pleasure throughout the week. Our class novel is The Hobbit by J. R. R Tolkien. We will be exploring the rich vocabulary within this text and the imagery it creates. Additionally, we will be undertaking more SATs-style questions in preparation for our assessments in the future.

Science

We will be studying the human body and its functions and also physical and chemical changes. We will conduct experiments to see how rusting happens and what we can do to prevent this. 

History

We will be looking at the British Empire in the Golden Age of its empire. 

Geography 

We will be conducting field experiments, gaining an understanding of the local area and the impact local issues can have on the environment.

Our PE is Tuesday (inside) and Wednesday (outside).

We look forward to working with all the children in Y6 and their families in this final year of primary school.
