Maths
This term, Year 6 pupils are focusing on fractions. They will learn how to add and subtract fractions, even when the denominators are different, and explore equivalent fractions to understand how fractions relate to each other. These skills build a strong foundation for problem-solving and real-life applications, such as measuring and dividing quantities.
English - Writing
In English, Year 6 pupils are developing their descriptive writing skills by creating setting descriptions of the Guatemalan rainforest. They will learn how to use rich vocabulary and sensory details to bring the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of the rainforest to life. Alongside this, pupils will focus on writing dialogue between characters, using speech to move the story forward and reveal character relationships. These activities help children practise using punctuation accurately, vary sentence structure, and write creatively with purpose.
Reading
Our class reader is The Curse of the Maya, an exciting adventure story that links to our rainforest theme. Reading lessons will focus on building comprehension skills, inference, and vocabulary knowledge—essential preparation for the upcoming SATs. Pupils will learn strategies to answer different question types confidently and develop a deeper understanding of texts.
