Year 6R 2025 - 2026

Welcome to 6R

Welcome back after the half term break!   

In English, we will be focussing on different genres of writing where the children have the opportunity to edit and redraft their work; ensuring each piece of writing shows their true potential. We will start by looking at ‘The Spider and the Fly’. We will be reciting the poem in class and basing our writing around it, focusing on language and speech. We will be using the thoughts and feelings of the characters to produce our writing. We will then move on to looking at non chronological reports and persuasion, thinking about ‘Our Planet’.

In Maths, we will begin with ratio. Then we will move onto looking at algebra and decimals. Children will be taking part in Freckles Maths and answering questions that are marked automatically and then are tested at the end. We will continue with the competition between the classes on TT Rock stars, and we will see which class wins just before the end of the term.

In Science, we will be looking at ‘Animals including Humans’. Children will get the opportunity to observe how the human body works and how blood moves around the body.

In Geography, the topic we are looking at is ‘Are we damaging our world?’ We will be learning about how our actions are effecting the world globally. In

Art, we will be focussing on Monet and looking at ‘What can you see?’

The Christian Value we will explore is ‘Perseverance'. This half term, we will be focussing on Hinduism, the children will be answering Big Questions and posing their own.

We are looking forward to another exciting term with Year 6!

Thank you for your continued support, The Year 6 Team!
