Our class newsletters celebrate all the great learning that has been going on in Year 6. They are full of the learning that has been taking place and how the children have been learning in many ways.

These are our year 6 knowledge organisers. They give you bite sized information about the learning that will be covered for each of our topics. They also include key vocabulary  that is used in our lessons with their definitions.

At Glenmere, we like to ensure our pupils to be prepared to engage as individuals, parents, workers and citizens with economic, social and cultural change, including the continued globalisation of the economy and society, are able to adapt to new work and leisure patterns and keep up with the rapid expansion of communication technologies. We will showcase our learning in Class Dojo in lots of different ways. 
Please find below our Personal Development Overview and the books we use to support our learning with Everyone Welcome
 

Personal Development in Year 6 

Everyone's Welcome Roadmap of Books

This document details our Year 6 curriculum and learning priorities across all subjects for the academic year across each term. Use this overview to see our Year 6 learning  and key half-termly focus areas.

Year 6 Overview

Here you will find lots of useful resources to link with our maths in school. We use the White Rose approach to our maths learning and there are some helping leaflets and web links for you to support mathematical learning at home 
White Rose Maths is excited to have produced a range of work booklets for parents and children to use over the summer or during next year. These booklets can be found on Amazon for the Kindle or downloaded below.  There is one booklet for each of our blocks for Y1 to Y6.

Each half term, we spotlight an Author of the Half Term and dive deep into their life and stories. Alongside reading their books to build our VIPERS reading skills (Vocabulary, Inference, Prediction, Explanation, Retrieval, and Summarising), the children discover fun facts about the authors themselves, helping them connect the real people behind the books and sparking a genuine love for reading!
Our author for the first half of the autumn term is Matt Goodfellow.

Recommended Book List

In Year 6, pupils take their end-of-Key Stage 2 SATs, which assess their knowledge and understanding in English and mathematics. The tests provide an opportunity for children to demonstrate the knowledge and skills they have developed throughout Key Stage 2.  At our school, we support pupils to approach SATs with confidence, preparing them carefully while ensuring that their wellbeing remains our priority. We encourage children to work hard, believe in themselves and remember that SATs are just one part of their learning journey.
The assessments include English grammar, punctuation and spelling, which consists of a Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling test and a Spelling test; English reading, which is a reading booklet and written comprehension test; and mathematics, which includes three papers: Paper 1 – Arithmetic, Paper 2 – Reasoning and Paper 3 – Reasoning. 

Here are some useful links to websites we use within school to support our preparation, which you may also access at home too:
