Reading
There is an expectation that you will read every day for at least 20 minutes. It is always nice to share reading with someone when you can. If you need some ideas for new books to enjoy, please have a look at the suggested reading list for year 6 on our class page. Your reading diaries will be collected in every Tuesday so please have your diaries signed so we can see evidence of home reading - Dojos will be awarded!!
Times tables
Please continue to practise your times tables regularly and use Times Table Rock Stars and Monster Multiplication (on Purple Mash) as often as you can.
Independent learning
You may wish to do your own independent research or activities based on some of our topics in science, history or geography. You may complete some art or computing work that you would love to show us. You might even wish to share an achievement or an award you have received. If you do, you can upload these onto our year 6 online floorbook. Instructions on how to do this are on the class page. We can't wait to see what you do!
Dojos will be awarded for completion of tasks which are handed in on time .
This year, Ms Kool will be teaching you on a Thursday afternoon.
