Welcome to Class 6HP (The Meerkats)!
Welcome back to the Spring Term 2023! In year 6 this term, we have Mrs Hardy and Mrs Panter (class teachers), Miss Neath (support staff), Mrs Harper (Spanish teacher) and 32 pupils. We also have Mr Woods, our sports coach, teaching PE on a Monday afternoon and Friday morning.
Please ensure your child has their PE kit on school on Mondays and Fridays.
This term will also welcome expert drumming teachers on a Tuesday to further embed our music learning. In addition to this, in March, we look forward to our residential.
This term we will become scientists, geographers, historians, computer scientists, technicians, mathematicians, writers, artists and designers and brilliant sportspeople! We will also be using our character muscles in many different ways. Information about the Year 6 curriculum can be found on this page of the school website and is updated throughout the year. Please also check our Facebook page regularly and the pre-learning slip on the Google Classroom for regular updates of your child's learning.
We expect the children to read at home at least three times a week and for this to be recorded. In addition to this your child should go on Read Theory to support their comprehension skills. Homework is set in the format of a choice grid for the first half of the spring term, before moving to weekly homework to support key revision and preparation for secondary school.
At Kegworth Primary School, we follow the National Curriculum. This is a large document which can be found online and details what should be covered in the curriculum at Primary School.
Our first critical thinking unit will be a history unit of learning based around our key question, 'How has Kegworth evolved over the last century?'
If you have any questions or concerns about your child, please come and speak to us before or after school, or book an appointment via the office.
We look forward to another fantastic and hard-working term!
The Year 6 Team.
