Bedrock (https://app.bedrocklearning.org/) Please complete at least one lesson. Although Bedrock are not running their competition this half term, I will still be running the in-class competition. A prize will be given in the last week, for the pupil who earns the most points!

Spellings -25.06.21-We will continue to practice ALL of the spellings, and you will be tested again, on Friday, on 20 new random spellings.
TT Rockstars (https://ttrockstars.com/)- practise regularly. Next Thursday, you will be tested on other facts, derived from your knowledge of your times tables, up to 12 x 12. For example, I might ask what 30 x 7 is, rather than 7 x 3.
Reading-please keep up with regular home reading. Let’s see how many quizzes you can take before the end of Year 6!
IXL
From now on I will not be setting weekly IXL units. The class will have access to all of the English and Maths units for the next 5 weeks, so they are free to revise and complete any of the units they wish from home. We will also be completing some of the units in class time, to make the most of the last few weeks of their access to this resource.
PRODUCTION
Part of the weekly homework for the next few weeks will be to practice and rehearse any songs/lines from home. The more you can practice at home, the better!
