Trent Class Year 6
Welcome to Trent Class!
Ahoy there me hearties!
It’s back to school…and time for some swash-buckling adventures!
Our topic this term is ‘ISLAND ADVENTURES’ so prepare to tour the world.
The ‘TORTURING TRENT’ will be guiding this motley crew around the world in search of Captain Crossbones’ treasure and we will be stopping off in different countries so that we can learn about other places and their cultures.
Look out for the clues so that we can beat ‘Ferocious Fleet’ in finding those ‘pieces of eight’!
In Maths this term we are continuing with our ‘Learn Its’. This involves knowing 36 Addition Facts and 36 Multiplication Facts in 100 seconds or less…a challenging task for some of us, but one I know that we can all achieve with a bit of practice at home! There is also a Written Arithmetic task to complete each week which is a selection of 36 fast-paced questions based on all of the 4 operations, negative numbers, place value facts, fractions, decimals and percentages…thank goodness we are all such mathematical superstars!
And then there are the exciting SATs to look forward to! This term we will be working particularly hard in Maths, English and Science so that we can all achieve the best results that we can! Not long now…Monday 14th May is when it all starts…an important date for your diary.
I’d like to say a big ‘THANK YOU’ to everyone for their really generous Christmas gifts…I certainly enjoyed them all! And I hope that Father Christmas was just as kind to all of you!
