Welcome to the fifth week of the Summer Term and SATs Week for our Year 6s!  Good luck to all - you have worked really hard during the lead up and deserve to shine bright throughout the week.

This week's timetable can be accessed HERE.  

YEAR SIX SATS BREAKFAST:  Year 6 are invited to join us for breakfast MONDAY to THURSDAY from 8.30am in the hub.  Please come in through the front door.  It is a great way to relax before each test and to spend some time together.  Please check the timetable to find out when each SAT is and its duration.

You will need to wear your PE kit on WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY this week. You will have cricket or Padel at Copdock Cricket Club on Wednesday and athletics with me on Thursday.  Please make sure that ALL uniform is named (especially PE jumpers).  

I am out of class on FRIDAY morning, so Mrs Lawrance will be teaching you RE and French.

Remember, you MUST bring a warm waterproof coat to school EVERY DAY as you will be expected to go out at playtimes even if it is raining.

The learning behaviour this week is 'Don't Give Up' and our value this half term is 'Friendship'.  Our words this week are: 'component' and  'voltage'.

This week's homework for YEAR 5 ONLY is:

  • Maths - Angles.
  • Spelling sheet - Words with silent letters.
  • Writing - use the picture stimulus to write 5 sentences using the different sentence types learnt in class: compound, complex (middle), verb complex and subordinating complex.  If you are unsure, please look at this video on the website. All the details are on Google Classroom. You can submit your writing on Google Docs or handwrite it in your homework book. 
  • Begin to learn the fifth column of the Y5/6 or Y3/4 Common Exception Words.  The ones you need to learn have been highlighted on the list in the front of your homework book.  
  • Use TTRockstars to practise your times tables - you MUST know these!!  If you don't, you need to go on here EVERY DAY.
  • Read for Pleasure at least FIVE times this week and record this in your diary for our Reading Giants challenge.  Ask a grown up to sign your book on Friday's section.
