w/c Monday 1st June

We hope you have had an enjoyable half term and have enjoyed some of the sunshine. By now, you should hopefully have found a home learning routine that works for you and your family. As we have suggested previously, completing English and maths tasks in the morning before moving onto other areas of the curriculum might work well for you as this is what you are used to in school. Oak National Academy and BBC Bitesize are continuing to support your home learning and have weekly schedules of interesting lessons.

Here is this week’s Year 6 schedule for BBC Bitesize:

Check out the lessons for this week on Oak National Academy:

Have you ever wondered how the Second World War ended? Why did the USA and USSR enter a cold war? Find out this week. Develop your Spanish speaking and learn how to say where you live! Finally, in music, you have the opportunity to develop your understanding of tempo, dynamics and emotion.
