Here are some of the interesting and inventive places we have been reading!  These photos are really making us  .  

We'd love to see even more photos.  You can either bring your photo in, or email it to to office@balliolschool.co.uk with the subject, ‘Y6 Reading Challenge’ so that it gets sent to us.

Twitter

Some of us have tweeted the authors of the books that we have enjoyed.  We are always so excited when we receive a reply.  Here is what we have received so far:

Reading:  Read as much as you can!  Reading is SO important, but remember, it is also important that you are enjoying what you

                 read.  If you need any recommendations, please ask.

Spellings:  You will be given your new spellings on a Friday to put in your Spelling Practice Book.    

                  You need to practise your spellings at least 5 times over the week and your homework will be checked on the

                  following Friday.  Your spelling test will also be on this day.

Maths:  This will be given to you on a Monday and will be due in on the following Monday.  One week, your homework will be on a

              sheet, the following week, it will be on My Maths.  https://www.mymaths.co.uk/

Times Tables:  Don't forget to keep practising.  (You have been given a sheet to show you what you need to work on.)  If you have

                          passed your Platinum Award, use TT Rock Stars to keep your recall as fast and as accurate as possible.

Topic Homework:  This homework is due in on Monday 14th October.

Well done to those children. To those of you yet to be published, keep working hard because everyone's writing is amazing and it will happen!
