Practice SATs and Autumn 2 Interventions
admin on: Class 6
Good Morning
As you will no doubt be aware, we have been doing practice SATs this week. We will be sending these papers home with your child for you to look through with them. I would encourage you to engage with them on any areas where they are unsure. Please keep in mind, there is a lot of teaching still to do in year 6 and this is very much an opportunity for them to familiarise themselves with the format and examples of the tests that they will be sitting.
Having said this, there are revision guides and practice question booklets widely available, should you want to look into this. Personally, I particularly recommend the Achieve guides (in Reading, Maths and Grammar, Spelling and Punctuation), which are available on Amazon for around £6.
Interventions will start - before school - for some, straight after the half term holidays.
Please check your child's book bag for letters and SATs papers.
If you have any questions, please email me on: class6@netherthongprimary.co.uk
Thanks for your support

First of all, watch out for your invites for Parents' Evening - with links - they will be sent out on Teams in the next 24-48hrs.
Spellings are the same this week - please direct your child to the Spelling Shed website, if they need any practice.
Mathletics is based around the long division and long multiplication, which we have been doing in class. It's all good practice.
Any problems - please get in touch.
Thanks for your support,

World Mental Health Day 2020
admin on: Class 6
9th October 2020
As October 10th is World Mental Health Day, throughout the today, every year group has learnt about what mental health is, discussed this topic and completed different activities based upon this.
In year 6, we created leaflets to promote positive mental health and thought about what we do at home to help our own wellbeing.
Young Minds is a charity that is leading the fight for a future where all young minds are supported and empowered, whatever the challenges. They are there to make sure young minds get the best possible mental health support and have the resilience to overcome life’s difficulties.

Have a lovely weekend!
