Religious Education

Our RE enriches all of our learning. This term, we are looking at the question...

HOW CAN WE REDUCE RACISM?HOW CAN RELIGIONS HELP?

Keep a lookout for the work and reflections we will be creating

during this unit this term.

Homework in Year 6

Homework will be set every week.

Children will be expected to complete their reading, weekly spellings and times tables activities.  

This will support their progress throughout the year in literacy and numeracy.  

WE LOVE TO READ!

Children will have their own reading books to take home. We look forward to seeing your progress and adding to our reading jar...when and what will be our first class reward?

Children in Year 6 enjoy focussed reading sessions every day where you can develop your reading and comprehension skills.

We have a well resourced school library where the children are allowed to select a book. 

There is also a reading corner in the classroom with designated slots when the children can enjoy a quiet read.

We will be reading a class book - This term, we are reading... Clockwork or all Wound Up by Philip Pullman
