HALF TERMLY OPTIONAL HOME LEARNING
In line with our new homework policy, each class will now have some optional tasks in addition to the set reading, spelling and Maths. Year 6 homework will look slightly different to other classes, as the need for reinforcement and revision is crucial on the run up to SAT’s, but then in Summer 2 term will follow the structure outlined on Mrs Gregan’s blog last week. The optional tasks below are for the whole term, some will build on previous learning and others will enrich this half term’s learning. Please click on the link below to view the tasks for this term. You can do these in homework books, as photos, powerpoints or however you like.
