** Easter SAT's Revision! **

Here is everything that you were given to take home for the Easter holidays.  Please remember our two very simple rules:

1. Aim to revise on 10 different days.  A little bit of revision is best (30 minutes maximum each day).  Remember - relaxing and having fun is also very important.
2. Think about what you need to spend some extra time on.  It is best to revise things you are not sure about so that you make the most of your time.  If it’s too hard, don’t worry; just make a note and ask us after Easter.

Homework

Homework in year 6 has changed slightly, due to the increasing need for children to prepare for their upcoming SAT's. Please support your child with their homework as much as possible and ensure that it is handed in on time. This will support their learning and prepare them for the demands they will face in secondary school.

Spellings

Below are the spellings that the children should know by the end of year 6.
