Week 8 Home Learning 📚😊 (1st March)

Hello Year 6!

Well done for yet another super week of home learning. We are so proud of you all! 😊

This week is our Book Week, which has a whole-school theme of ‘Dragons’! 🐉🐉🐉Each of our English lessons are linked to Book Week, and we hope that you really enjoy these activities. We would really love to see any photos or examples of your work 😊 On Thursday, it is World Book Day. If you would like to, you are very welcome to dress up as a book character! If you don’t fancy dressing up, we would love to see a picture of you with/ reading your favourite book 🥰

In maths, the lessons focus on statistics. As with previous weeks, some of the maths activities are labelled 1 star or 2 star. 1 star activities are more straightforward than 2 star tasks; choose which activity you would like to do depending on how confident you feel.⭐

The resources for each week are posted on both the News and the Homework part of the Year 6 website page. If you are unable to view the resources on the Year 6 ‘News’ section, it may be easier to navigate to the ‘Homework’ section instead, which is displayed at the top of the page.

Below you will find the timetable for Week 8 – remember that this is just a guide and you can be flexible with how you structure your learning! 😊
