Hi all,
Everyone settled in well to their first week in P6, although may have been a tad tired towards the end!
P6 Homework Information
Reading
Over the next few weeks, P6 will undertake a novel study of a Michael Morpurgo book called ‘ Kensuke’s Kingdom’. This will lend itself to many varied and in-depth activities involving the four literacy capacities of reading, writing, talking and listening. We will read this together in class and therefore, no reading book will be sent home. Children should continue to read for pleasure, texts of their choice at home, such as books, comics or magazines. It would also be great if children could bring in a text of their choice to read in class when they have time.
Spelling
Spelling homework will continue much the same as in P5. Children will have a focus spelling list to learn and show they can transfer this learning into their literacy with confidence and accuracy. Homework will be issued Tuesday to Tuesday so gives everyone a full week, including a weekend, to complete tasks. Thanks to all who managed to cover their spelling jotters. More information to follow.
Maths/Numeracy
There will be a maths or numeracy homework task most weeks so please refer to this class page on our website for weekly updates. This week I have set a straightforward Sumdog Challenge ( #1 P6 Tables x 2 3 4 5 August 2018) which just revises the lower tables. If you cannot access this at home, please let me know.
