Y6 Home Learning Friday 4th December

Date: 4th Dec 2020 @ 8:27am

Year 6 Homework

Date set: 4/12/2020

To be completed by: Wednesday 9/12/2020

 

Children in Year 6 are expected to complete 60 minutes of homework each week.

Please help and support your child wherever possible. However, your child should be able to complete the work independently as it is linked to objectives taught during the week at school.

Although homework is now set through online platforms, your child’s teacher is able to see if your child has completed tasks set and how well they have understood the task. Rewards will be given to children for completing homework on time.

 

Active Learn – 20 minutes

 

Please login to your Active Learn account and complete the outstanding activities set.  

 

(https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk/)

 

The activities that your child’s teacher has set should be visible in their personal account under the tab ‘My Stuff’. You will find the options ‘Bug club’ for reading and ‘Grammar and spelling’.

 

Please contact us if there is an issue with the site via teachers@dobcroft-jun.sheffield.sch.uk

Spellings – 20 minutes

 

Focus: Challenge words

 

These need to be practised and your child will be tested on their spelling list every Thursday (Y6PH) or Friday (Y6CT & Y6TH)

 

  • rhyme
  • occupy
  • apply
  • hyphen
  • hygiene
  • python
  • supply
  • identify
  • multiply
  • recycle

 

In addition to these ten words, the children can practise the Year 5/6 spelling list, which is words the children are expected to know how to spelling at the end of year 6, please log into Spelling Shed and click on Stage 5/6 to play games based around these words.

 

 

Times Tables – 10 minutes

 

This half-term the three Year 6 classes will be going head to head competing to be crowned TT Rockstar champions. This week Y6PH gained a commanding lead with three wins in total. A big well done to the children in Y6CT and Y6TH who continue to compete and challenge for the title. Your hard work and effort is noticed.

This week will be the sixth battle to be played using the Y6 cohort leader board format as seen below. The winning class each week will receive MVP certificates to take home as well as extra reward time at some point during the week. The class who has the most wins by the end of next term will receive a TT Rockstar trophy to stay in their class until another class challenges them for the title.

Children are expected to know their tables up to 12 x 12 by the end of Year 4. This knowledge needs to be retained and applied in a variety of mathematical contexts as they continue learning. Please ensure that tables knowledge is retained using Times Table Rockstars each week.

 

In addition to these: Reading

 

Please encourage your child to read with an adult at least 3 times per week for around 15 minutes. At this age, the time may be spent chatting about the text and the content of what they are reading rather than spending time decoding the text – you will know your child best in this respect.
