Welcome to Jaguars Class!
Welcome to Jaguar Class! I’m Miss Neal, and I’m excited to be your child’s Year 6 teacher this year.
Topics we will be covering this year:
-
Term 1 – Amazing America’s
-
Term 2 – Successful Shakespeare
-
Term 3 – Close to home
-
Term 4 – World War II
-
Term 5 – Trade and economics

Term 6 – Early Islamic Civilisations
Spelling – Spellings will be set weekly on a Monday and will be tested on the Friday
Reading – I will try to read with the children once every two weeks, as will our TA, Mrs Adair, please read with your child at home as much as possible and pop any comments into their reading records.
TTRS – In Year 6 it is still really important to continue building on times table knowledge as almost every maths topic uses them! Please use TTRS to build on these skills. It should be used at least twice a week!
Homework – This will mostly be spellings, TTRS and their choice of activity from the ‘pick and mix’ sheet. Year 6 will also be set weekly additional homework in preparation for SATS. Year 6 homework will go out on Friday’s and will be due in the following Thursday.
PE – This year, our PE days will be on a Tuesday and Thursday. Please make sure your child has the correct PE kits with them for their PE days.
PPA – My PPA afternoon is on Monday and so the children will have Mrs Cowley. She will teach them computing, RE and music.
Please keep an eye on our Class Dojo page and check your child’s school bag for important letters and updates throughout the year.
My door is always open, so feel free to pop in or message me on Class Dojo if you have any questions. I’m here to help!
