Homework
Year 6 Homework Expectations
As we prepare for SATs, children will receive homework each week to support their learning and revision. This will include:
- Children will be provided with a Maths and English revision book to support their homework activities.
- Children will receive maths and grammar login details for maths.co.uk and grammar.co.uk, which will allow them to access specific topics to focus on.
- Children are expected to complete one reading comprehension activity each week (pages will be provided).
- Children are expected to complete regular spelling practice – they will be tested each Friday.
- Children are expected to practise their times tables regularly using Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS).
- Children are also expected to read a minimum of 3 times a week to an adult.
Thank you for your continued support at home as we work together to prepare the children for SATs.
Spellings
Spelling lists will be given to your children every Friday. They will then be tested on those spellings the following Friday.
Please check your child’s spelling book (the small orange book), practice the spellings with them, and sign the page each week.
Thank you for your support.
Times Tables!
All children in Year 6 must be able to recall their multiplication tables. We use Times Table Rock Stars to support their rapid recall of these. All children have a login and are encouraged to use it as often as they can.
