Spring 1 – To support the learning of World War 1 this term, we have arranged to visit the Heugh Battery Museum in Hartlepool. Due to numbers, this will be split so one class goes at a time. This enables them, first hand, an actual trench. This museum is the only First World War battlefield in the UK. It has been a military stronghold since the 17th Century and has an enormous collection of military equipment including tanks. |

Home Learning: Spelling homework will continue to be set on Class Dojo Story on a Monday. Daily reading is vital and research has shown that this is the most beneficial kind of homework.
- Reading: Every child is expected to read each night. The children are to access their 'Reading Plus' account to support their reading progress and comprehension. We also encourage the children to read chapter or non fiction book, for enjoyment.
- Spellings: Children will receive a set of spellings to learn each week that they must practise daily. Spelling frame will support this activity
- Times Table Rock Stars: As times tables are such a huge part of the curriculum, they must be practised daily. Year 6 children will be more successful in the end of key stage test if they have a secure times tables knowledge.
