Dear
Parent/Carer,
We
are writing to advise you about your child’s Year 6 Revision Homework. With the Year 6 Key Stage 2 SAT’s (Week
Beginning 9th May 2016) fast approaching, we feel that it is
fundamental that over the remaining weeks, your child keeps their mind active with
the learning that they have been receiving over the last two terms so that they
can achieve their best.
It is
important that your child gets a chance to have a break over Easter Holiday,
re-charge their batteries and relax away from school as they have worked very
hard this term; however we would like them to spend some time on this revision
programme.
The children will bring home
the following to help them:
· Their last maths assessment
to correct in a different coloured pen/pencil in order to try to improve their
score. Some children will receive additional questions to challenge them whilst
others will not be expected to know everything in their original papers.
· The new Maths Arithmetic 2015 Sample paper which they have seen early in Autumn Term. Please download and use.
· Their last reading assessment
to correct in a different coloured pen/pencil in order to try to improve their
score. The reading document will be on the blog.
· Their last spelling, punctuation
and grammar assessment to correct in a different coloured pen/pencil to
improve their score. We will expect, due to new terminology, that some question
maybe unfamiliar (we will be covering these in school) but any extra independent
research would be beneficial.
· Mathematics, Reading, Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar mark schemes will be
available on the blog (below) to check answers or work out problems by seeing the
answer.
We
suggest that your child revises little and often throughout the remaining weeks
until the SATs. We are not envisaging it being used under test conditions, but
in short sessions i.e. 15-25mins at one time. Discussing answers with your child
will really benefit their development.
Kind
regards,
Mrs
Lawrence and Mr Taylor
