Practise your times tables!! I will be giving the class 30 MIXED times tables questions next Friday. There are many FREE times tables apps you can get on tablets/ipads. ‘Hit the Button’ is a good website for quickfire times tables questions as well. Another way to practise is to get someone at home to give you a mock test and see how well you do!

Sumdog and Bedrock usernames and passwords have been sent home today. Please access these from home regularly…I can see in school how often each pupils is accessing it at home, and the progress that is being made. (Sumdog will be great to help revise for the times tables test as well!)

Year 6 Homework 2019/20

Home reading-please keep up with regular home reading! I do please ask that reading records are signed by an adult at home, when they have read. We keep a record in school to see how regularly everyone is reading, and how many quizzes are being taken!

Book homework- I will send homework, from the Maths and English books , home on Fridays. This work is due back in on the following Wednesday.

Online programmes that can be accessed at home- In the coming weeks I will be sending home logins and passwords for Bedrock, IXL and Sumdog. All of these programmes can be accessed from home. This class had access to Bedrock and Sumdog in year 5 so will already know how these programmes work-they should access these regularly at home. We will be doing IXL in school as well, so they will soon become familiar with this programme too.

Spellings & Times tables - throughout year 6, we will have weekly spelling and/or times tables text. I will let the class know what they need to practise when I set the book homework on a Friday.

Homework

Please remember to do your homework and bring it in on time!

Spelling list 5 for quiz on Wednesday.

GPS book- make sure that you are up to date and have completed all sections from page 2-15. this will be reviewed on Tuesday.

Maths sat buster book- choose 2 or 3 sections that you find challenging and practise your skills.

Bedrock- All children now have a new bedrock login as the company have a new site. We have logged in at school so the children know how to access the site and have checked that their logins work. It is extremely important that they complete 2 sessions at home for the programme to have a significant positive affect on improving their vocabulary. We complete a session on a Wednesday in school, so ideally a session on a Monday and Friday or Saturday would be advantageous. The site will not let you do consecutive sessions as they children need 48 hour to use the new vocabulary they have learnt. I am sent a report each week, so please use this site to improve your child’s vocabulary. We need to complete 3 sessions a week for maximum impact.

IXL- will be back on line soon.

Once again can I remind you that if you have internet issues at home the children can access the relevant websites during school hours. Also, if your child is struggling with any aspect of their homework please tell them to see me; I have lunch time drop in sessions.

Thank you for your support.
