Hi everyone! There have been some changes to how we are going to provide work. As much as possible, we are going to make the work that the children do at school closely matched to the work that the children do at home. Therefore, we have produced work packs for each year group and here is the one for year 6. It contains activities that the children need to do, examples for how to do certain activities and also the day on which the activity should be completed. I will upload a complete timetable so you can see an overview for the week. The guided reading will be uploaded separately. If you would like a hard copy of this pack, then you can get them from school. Thank you, Mr McIntyre :)

In school, you have made some amazing posters this year, so I know you can do the same.
