Year 6
Mrs Innes and Mr Maughan
Hello everyone and welcome to Year 6,
As we move into our final year of primary school, we are thinking about making the transition to secondary school and preparing ourselves for KS3. We aim to be increasingly independent and organised. This includes remembering our homework and organising our own belongings and resources.
Year 6 teachers and support staff work hard to help each child achieve their potential and continue their love of learning.
Our teachers: Mrs Innes (6I) and Mr Maughan (6M)
Support staff: Mrs Knighton and Mrs Jackson.
In the autumn term, we will cover a lot of learning and experiences. In English, we will complete pieces of writing around the book ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’ by Michael Morpurgo and ‘Pages and Co.’ by Anna James. In Maths we will complete units on place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and fractions. In History, we will learn about the impact of World War 1 on our local area. Our Geography topic is Peru. In PE, we will develop skills in tag rugby and basketball. Our science topic is about the heart and the circulatory system.
We have a really busy term ahead!
