Welcome to Year 6! 

Autumn Term 

It has been lovely getting to know all of the children this year. It's a big year ahead with lots of exciting learning to look forward to. 

English

In English we are writing about self-identity and what makes us unique. The children will be planning a diary entry expressing how they can make a difference to the world! 

Also, this term the children's writing will be based around the book, 'Windrush Child' written by the late, Benjamin Zephaniah. Leonard is shocked when he arrives with his mother in the port of Southampton. His father is a stranger to him, it’s cold and even the Jamaican food doesn’t taste the same as it did back home in Maroon Town. But his parents have brought him here to try to make a better life, so Leonard does his best not to complain, to make new friends, to do well at school – even when people hurt him with their words and with their fists.

Maths. 

In Maths we will be focusing on place value and the four operations (adding, subtraction, division and multiplication). This is crucial to their understanding of number and will support them in all areas of maths throughout the year. 

Science

Our unit is on Circularoty system. In this Science project, children revisit their learning about systems in the human body, including the skeleton, muscular and digistive systems and the 7 life processes from the projects, Human Senses, Animal Nutrition and the Skeletal System and Food and the Digestive System. They learn about and identify the role of the circulartory system and its main parts before researching to further their knowledge.

General Reminders

  • P.E is every Monday and Tuesday.  Please ensure your child comes to school wearing their swimming kit under their PE kit on those days. Please also ensure that any jewellery is removed. 
  • Homework will be set on a Friday, to be handed in on the following Wednesday. 
  • Children are expected to read every night, please ensure this is recorded in their reading records. Reading records will be checked on a weekly basis and reads will be counted as part of our new reading challenge. The aim is to read daily for 15-20 minutes. 

We thank you for your continued support in this final year of your child's learning here at Pippins. If you have any queries or questions, please come and see me or email  me at mkhalid@pippins.slough.sch.uk
