6M 2023 - 2024

Welcome to 6M Class Page

Welcome to 6M. 

6M's teacher is Mr McManus and we are supported in our learning by Mrs Pennington.  Mrs Dearing also supports our class.

We hope that you have had an enjoyable summer and are looking forward to your last year at Sherdley. Yes, we all have to work very hard but we can do lots of fun and enjoyable activities too.

PE

PE for 6M is on Wednesday and Friday. Please make sure your child has a NAMED PE kit. Also, please bring your child to school WEARING their PE kit on PE days. Earrings should not be worn on PE days.

Please ensure your child is wearing an appropriate P.E kit. Ask us for more information on this if needed! 

Y6 will go swimming in Autumn Term on Friday 29th September, Friday 6th October and Friday 13th October. Please ensure your child comes into school on these days in their PE kit.

Reading and Go Read!

Reading is a hugely crucial element to all elements of your child's education! In KS2, we use Go Read to log reading in school and at home, please log your child's reading on Go Read from September. Logins will be provided for you! 

Your child can now win Bronze, Silver or Gold awards for reading at home! More information on this in the newsletter! 

Homework

Reading is so important! Please read regularly with your child and also make sure they can answer comprehension questions about the book. Books can be brought in and changed once they are completed. Please log ALL reading on Go Read. 

In Y6 we work on a daily times table challenge. Children can earn these 4 badges: bronze, silver, gold and platinum! The children will be told which times table they need to work on to earn their next badge.

We are using a new spelling scheme in school called Spelling Shed! We will update you if your children need to learn any spellings at home! 

SATs

SATs take place in May and they are absolutely nothing to worry about! More information on the Y6 SATs tests will be available nearer to the date of the tests!

I hope this page answers any questions you may have about 6J! In the meantime, if you have anything else you would like to ask, please don’t hesitate to come and speak to me/send me a message via our school app!

Mr McManus
