Welcome to Spartan Class - Year 6

Teacher - Mrs Schofield

TA - Mrs Clegg

TA - Miss Compton

Welcome to year 6 and team Spartan. This will be your final year in Primary School and we want to make the most of it. Over the year, you will grow from children to young adults, ready to make the move to Secondary School. Throughout the year, we will be covering all areas of the curriculum and exploring and discovering new facts and connections between our learning.

In Year 6, you are expected to work hard, developing the skills and independence you will need for Secondary School. Your Standard Assessment Tasks (SATs) are in May and lots of preparation work is undertaken throughout the year to prepare you for these.

If you have any questions then please contact me directly via the class email: y6spartan@greenmeadow.bluekitetrust.org  or make an appointment to see me through the school office.

Coats
Please ensure that your child always comes into school with a named coat, especially with the weather getting colder.

Water bottles
Please provide your child with a water bottle every day. This is as well as a drink in their lunch box if they are having a packed lunch.

PE
We have PE 2 times during the school week - on Monday and Wednesday. All children must have their PE kit in school every day to ensure that they can participate. We will continue to do PE outside once a week so please provide your child with appropriate clothing eg: tracksuit and trainers.

Children need to have earrings covered by micropore tape and hair tied back. Please also ensure that children have their name in each part of their kit! If your child is unable to take part in PE due to illness or injury, please notify me in writing including the reason for non-participation.

Please have your child's name in all of their clothes and belongings!

Reading
Children are expected to read 5 times a week and record it in their reading records. Children will be able to change their books when they have completed them. 

Spellings
The children will still have 10 spellings from the spelling pattern covered during the week.

Homework

English and Maths homework will be sent out on a Friday and will be expected to be brought back in by the Wednesday.
