Year 6 - Mr Mussell Homework

Autumn Term Homework

Homework is important as it helps your child to practise the skills they have learnt in school. Encouraging and supporting them to complete it on time will ensure they understand everything that is being taught in lessons.

We will set Maths, Comprehension and Spellings every Friday. This is a key part of your child’s learning and we expect it to be completed and handed in by the following Thursday.  Please speak to us if you would like further opportunities to extend learning with mini projects and extension activities. 

If your child is not sure about the homework please encourage them to speak to their teacher before Thursday. We are more than happy to help with homework during school, but hand in day is too late.

Maths homework is set weekly. Visit www.mymaths.co.uk and login at the top of the page using your school username and password. On the next page enter your personal username and password in the My Portal box. If you have forgotten your password or username please see you teacher.

Reading
Children should read out loud to an adult for an average of ten minutes every day.

Spellings
Here is a list of spellings for the  whole of the Autumn Term 2022-23.  

 

• Write each word three times in your book using a pen or pencil (using the ‘Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check’ method to revise them).
• Look up the meaning of each word – can you write down another word that uses the same sounds?

 
Bring your book to school each Thursday ready for your spelling challenge.
