Year 6

Welcome to Year Six!

In Year Six, the team is Miss Dormer, Mr Springate, Mrs Richards and Ms Moisey.

Our P.E days this term are Monday and Friday for Aspen Class and Tuesday and Friday for Willow class. Please make sure your child comes to school in their P.E kit these days.

Our topic for this term is 'Ancient Greece'. We have lots of exciting things planned for the term ahead.

Our priority is your happiness and well-being. Parents and carers, if you have any questions or concerns throughout the year, please don't hesitate to contact the class teacher via email.

100 Recommended Reads

At Birdwell, we are passionate about reading but we know it's sometimes tricky to find an age-appropriate book for your child. Please see below our recommended reads for children in Y5/6. We have many of these in our school library. Some of them are also included in our 'Six Book Challenge'.

We expect children to read regularly at home, both independently and aloud to an adult. Children are expected to complete two short book reviews per term in our class log.

Homework

The children can continue to do the SATs practice books. We will set pages each Friday and go through them the following Friday.
