********IMPORTANT Y6 DATES***********
SATS WEEK 13th - 16th May 2024
LONDON RESIDENTIAL 24th - 26th June 2024
Hello lovely children in Zennor!
Welcome to Y6 - it is going to be an amazing year!
Our first topic this year is Extreme Earth, so lots of learning about disasters and how planet Earth is constructed. We will be learning about the Sikhi religion in RE, trying to hone our rounders skills so that we can beat the teachers in the Summer term, and learning about levers and pulleys in science.
Of course, we will start to build our confidence ahead of our SATs assessments in May by working hard on our maths, reading and writing skills. There will be lots of fun as well though, and we are lucky to have Mrs Stevens to teach us art in the art studio this term.
PE day will be Mondays and Fridays, but this is liable to change at any time so please make sure you have PE kit in school every day. Also bring a coat - fresh air and a break from the classroom is really important so a little bit of Cornish mizzle (liquid sunshine) doesn't stop us from going outside.
Miss Taylor and I are really looking forward to spending time with you this year, and we know that you will have lots to celebrate over the year.
Much love
Miss Hill
READING AT HOME IS SO IMPORTANT - PLEASE BUILD IT INTO YOUR ROUTINE
Stuck for what to read? Try some of these recommended reads for Y6. Remember that our local library is a great place to try out books before you buy - and they will order books in for you to try too.
If you would like more information about why reading at home is so important please follow the link below or read the attached DFE study.
Please see the document below that gives you ideas of how to help your child when they read with you at home - it contains useful sentence stems that will help you when you ask questions.
Homework -
At St Uny Church of England Academy, we believe homework is anything children do outside of the normal school day that contributes to their learning, in response to guidance from the school. Homework encompasses a whole variety of activities instigated by teachers and parents/carers to support the children's learning. There is a link to our Chilli Challenge homework grid on this class page.
