Reading
Children have the opportunity to read and develop a love of books at Chapel Street through daily reading, Just Read sessions and library time as well as across the curriculum.
The Year 6 texts for Just Read are: Eren, A Christmas Carol, The Murderer’s Ape and The Northern Lights
In Year 6, children will enhance their reading skills through our 'Reading Gems' approach, focusing on key strategies such as defining new vocabulary, retrieving key information, making inferences, predicting outcomes, and summarising texts.
It is important that your child brings their reading book into school each day and that children read at home on a daily basis.
Homework
Homework is set through the Doodle learning platform: https://doodlelearning.com/
Children have individual log ins and can access Doodle through a computer, phone or tablet.
It is important that your children access Doodle throughout the week and this will be checked weekly by your class teacher. Children should complete work related to English and Maths to support their learning in class.
Please contact your class teacher if you have any difficulties in accessing your Doodle account.
