Reading and homework
Reading is such an important part of your child's development. It helps with many things including their vocabulary, writing, spelling and understanding of the world we live in.
Children in Year 6 are expected to read for at least 3 times a week and record this in their Reading Record.
Maths and Spelling & Grammar homework is also set each week. Please ensure this is completed and handed in every Wedesday. Children who miss homework and reading will be directed to study support after school on a Monday with Miss Roots and Mrs Lockett.
The children will also continue to develop an understanding of the spelling, punctuation and grammar that is expected in Year 6. Children in Year 6 will be given spellings to practise at home using 'Spelling Shed' and tested weekly.
P.E
Beech and Sycamore have PE on Tuesdays indoors and Thursday (outside).
Please make sure your child has their correct PE kit in school on these days.
Communication
We keep you up-to-date and communicate via Class Dojo. Keep an eye on our class story for information on what we have been learning as well as important reminders. If you have any queries or concerns about your child's learning then please do not hesitate to speak to us, either by phoning the school office or sending a message on Class Dojo.
Uniform
Please label all uniform including coats, P.E. kit, shoes and jumpers. It is extremely difficult to locate lost uniform if it does not have a name on it. Jumpers will need to have the Beechwood logo.
Safeguarding
As a school, we take safeguarding very seriously. This includes internet safety and we are very aware that many children enjoy spending time on tablets, phones and even playing with Alexa!
