ENGLISH
Today and tomorrow I would like you to focus on ensuring that you can spell the majority of spellings from the Year 5/6 spelling list. You will see it on page one of the attached document – Spellings at Home.
Start by making sure you can read all of the words. Then make sure you can explain what each word means.
Take a look at some of the suggested activities and try and complete all of these over the next 2 days. I know some of you have done these already but it is important that you regularly revise these words so that you will spell them correctly in Year 7. You can always come up with some of your own activities.
MATHS
Over this half term, we will be focusing on ensuring we have covered everything on the Year 6 curriculum so that you are ready for Year 7. Continue to work through the activities in your CGP books, if you have not completed these already. Also ensure your Times Tables are fluent by regularly going on Times Tables Rock Stars.
Over the next 3 days, I will attach some Fluency Grids, that we began to work on in class before the lockdown, as these will remind you of the key facts that you need to know. Decide on your own numbers to work with (e.g. 4, 50, 86, 700 etc) and just do a variety of the activities. Today you will revise place value and fractions.
