Byerley Park Primary School

Year 6

Welcome to Year 6

Hello everyone and welcome to Year 6. We have an excellent year ahead planned and we can’t wait to get started. Miss Taylor, Mrs Tinkler, Mrs Wimbury and Miss Ord will all be working with you during your final year in Byerley Park.  We do work hard, but we try to have lots of fun in the process. Our work will link, as much as possible, to the topics we study during each term, so that you can make stronger and more memorable links in your learning.

Homework

Reading Reading books will be handed out on a Friday and returned the following Friday. Please try to hear your child read three times a week. Reading records will need to be signed to show that your child has read their book. I understand that at times books may not be completed. If this is the case, please write a note in the record book to say this so that the same book can be returned.

Spellings - New spellings will be given out every Monday and tested the following Monday. A small, yellow book will be sent home with the new spellings inside. This book is also the test book. It must be returned the following Friday so that the test can be administered inside it. This means that you can see your child's weekly test. Please ensure children do not write inside this book when it is sent home. Spellings will also be uploaded onto Spelling Shed each week.

Homework - Children will also be set some maths and spelling homework in their homework books. These will be set every Monday and should be returned the following Monday. Children are also expected to regularly practice their times tables on Times Table Rock Stars.
