Mrs Clarke's homework

I'd like you to write a short letter of thanks. If you completed cycle training I'd like you to write to the cycle trainers. You could tell them what you learned and what you enjoyed. If you didn't do the cycle training I'd like you to write to Mrs Lord and thank her for the activities you completed today. Again let her know what you enjoyed. Make sure you letter is done on paper (either written or typed) as we are going to either post them to the trainers or give them to Mrs Lord. You need to do this homework for next Tuesday 25th September.

Cycling

Congratulations to all the year 6 children who completed the cycle training level 2 course today. The 3 cycle trainers and I were extremely proud of you all. Your listening skills and the way you all followed instructions was excellent. Good luck to the children taking part in the level 3 training, I'll look forward to seeing you cycling to school.

Welcome to year 6

Can you believe it - you are in year 6. Bet it doesn't seem long since you were starting school and here you are on the last leg of your primary school years! Mrs Carroll and Mrs Clarke would like to welcome all our pupils into year 6. Everyone has got off to a fabulous start and we've been very impressed with some of the work done already.
Can I just remind you that we are starting our weekly spelling test next Monday. Everyone has got 10 spellings to learn and books will be brought home on a Tuesday. That means 6 whole days to practise the ones you're not sure about.

They have been a super class to work with. As a reward for their efforts we have promised a post SATs party next Friday afternoon so they will be asking for some food or drink to bring to that please.

Here are a few snaps of the fun things we got up to last week. Over the next few weeks we will be putting the rest onto a disc for the children to take home.

You were a great team-well done! We will be producing an end of year disc so that you can have a copy of all of the photos. Watch this space for a few samples later!

Homework for 15th/16th January

Hi everyone. Remember that homework has changed slightly this term. Tuesday is still the day for getting your homework from me but the maths needs to be done and brought back into school the following MONDAY. It is really important you do this as we will be using part of Mondays' lesson to go through the questions set. This is to help us revise for the SAT's. Each week we will be revising a different aspect of maths building into a revision folder that can be used at home and school. All other 'Mrs Clarke' homework can be done by Tuesday as normal.
