What a busy week we have had in Year 6. The children have completed their first assessments in Year 6. They have done well and have shown excellent perseverance throughout. I am really pleased with where the children are, and we still have lots of amazing things to learn.
On Tuesday, we welcomed parents into our classroom. We spoke about the importance of retrieval and inference skills and looked at some RIC examples using pictures. For example:
We finished our busy week with some quality time with our Reception Buddies. We were invited down for some hot chocolate and playtime. Our Year 6 children ave been wonderful in helping the new children settle into St James’ – we are all so proud of how kind, caring and compassionate they have been.
Help at home – please ensure you are reading with your child at home on a weekly basis. Little and often really does help. They should be completing activities in their reading record books and bringing them in every Friday.
Please also allow your child time to visit Square Club Maths (QR code below). The child will really benefit for this and have shown that they really enjoy it.
Can you and your child write a retrieval, inference and choice question based on this picture:
