Homework in Year 6
a.roclawski on: Year 6 Blog
Hello,
Just a quick note about homework in Year 6.
Below is the DFE guidelines for amount of homework children should receive in primary schools.
In year 6 the weekly homework consists of:
15 minutes reading per night (school books and/or home book) This must be recorded in their reading records.
A literacy task. (sometimes on line)
A maths task (times table rock stars or SATs Companion)
Every half term your children will also be given a project based homework about their topic question.
Sanctions for not doing homework:
Not reading at home they must spend 15 minutes of their lunch reading.
Homework missed on day due in - note in planner
Homework missed on day after due date - stay in for half an hour to complete.
Many thanks,
Miss Roclawski and Mr Ryan

Hello everyone!
Welcome to our Year 6 blog.
Please visit as often as you can to see all the hard work your children are doing!
We will also be updating with photographs, trip information and anything we think may be useful to you.
Both classes have settled in incredibly well this year.
Unfortunately Mr. Ryan has broken his elbow but with confirmation from Leeds Authority Health and Safety team we should have him back with us by Monday 9th September!
Hopefully you were able to attend our welcome meetings which were held today. If not, I will be putting the main information slides on here so you have access to everything.
Thank you so much, and we both look forward to working alongside you and your children this year.
Miss Roclawski and Mr Ryan

Hello Everyone!
Just a little message from Mr Ryan and myself to quell any concerns that Year 6 aren't doing any work since the end of SATS.
They are still working incredibly hard and are doing a lot of work around transition to high school.
Our formal maths lessons have been replaced with maths projects such as planning and creating their own zoos and making their own board games. They are also well underway with year 7 maths lessons which we slip in periodically.
In literacy our writing has been surrounding Charles Darwin and his voyages on the HMS Beagle.
Science is focused on Evolution and environment.
In food tech we are tasting, planning and making our own healthy snacks.
Also, in the following two weeks we will be conducting our science and PSHE SRE unit.
Many thanks,
Miss Roclawski and Mr Ryan
