Welcome to Willow Class - Year 6

Welcome to Year 6

In Willow class our teacher is Mr McNamara and our Teaching Assistants are Mrs Pauls and Mr Sentia.

 

READING:

Reading regularly and for sustained periods at home as well as in school is vital. This will improve fluency, stamina and understanding which will help your child achieve the expected standard in reading for their age-group by the end of Y6. I expect children to read at least 5 times a week and for at least 10 minutes per sitting.

The children will be given reading books to take home which can be changed as often as is necessary and they are also welcome to choose books from our school library or read books from home.

Please encourage your child to read regularly and complete their home-reading record which should be taken home and returned to school daily.

 

SPELLINGS AND HOMEWORK

Spellings will be given out each week on a Wednesday and our weekly spelling test will be on the following Monday. Spellings should be practised for a short time each day if possible: not just the night before the test!

The children also receive weekly Mathematics and English homework.

Please ask your child if they have completed their homework and remind them to make sure it is returned to school on time. Homework is the responsibility of the child and not parent. Failure to having homework in will result in your child missing break and completing extra work.
