Year 6 Timetable (Week Beginning 1/3/21)

Further instructions about the Maths, English and Topic sessions are located beneath the weekly yellow, highlighted timetable. With the necessary resources stored in our File Share folder marked Remote Learning 2021.

English

Complete a daily reading comprehension from the PowerPoint in the 'Remote Learning 2021' folder. All sections of each task must be completed, answering in your lined Remote Learning book (collected from school) or on a Word document.

Please email the BEYOND THE RECORD task to the Year Six email address each day so that feedback can be provided and your evidence saved in our records.

If you have any time left in your English hour, please use https://www.spellingshed.com/en-gb/ to practise your spellings.

Don't forget to read! There are so many enjoyable books to read out there - find something that gets you hooked.

Maths

In class you will have been following the White Rose Maths PowerPoints and questions. Go to the 'File Share' section, select 'Remote Learning 2021' and then select 'WRM Maths'. Finally click on Block 9 (Perimeter, Area & Volume).

For each lesson, watch the video before attempting the questions. Make sure you show all relevant working out in your squared Remote Learning book. Mark your work ready for the daily Zoom meeting. This should take you a minimum of 45 minutes to complete.

Then, log onto TT Rock Stars and use Garage mode to show how you have been keeping up your fluency and accuracy of arithmetic skills. If you have completed Garage (level 420) then please move onto Studio to improve your rock speed.

We have had to postpone the 'Outward Bound Expedition Day' that was scheduled for February. We have now negotiated new dates in July 2021 (6H 1st July/6L 2nd July).

Year 6 'End of Key Stage Assessments' (SATs) have been cancelled (in May) and teachers are being asked to use a mixture of 'internal, ongoing assessments and MOCK style exams' in their place, to assess pupil progress for this academic year.
