Spelling Currently children are working in 2 groups for spelling. One group will receive three 25 minute sessions per week and will focus on developing their confidence in spelling. We trialled this last year and we found spending 3 weekly sessions focussing on one particular spelling focus really helped improve the spelling ability of some children.
Spelling Cont… The other group will spend an initial 25 minute session focussing on a weekly spelling focus and then a further independent 25 minute session during our daily task time. The structure of the 1 st session is as follows: Spelling Test- using unseen words- where children have to look at words and determine the spelling focus for that week. Teacher led teaching of specific spelling rule with independent activity to follow. Children spend time during the following week, investigating the rule and completing some work. They are then retested on rule the following week. We feel that it is important that the children fully understand the rule, rather than simply learn a set number of spellings per week.
Year 6 Spelling: • • • Endings which sound like /ʃəs/ spelt –cious or –tious Endings which sound like –tial, -cial Words ending in –ant, –ance/–ancy, –ent, –ence/–ency Words ending in –able and –ible Words ending in –ably and –ibly Adding suffixes beginning with vowel letters to words ending in –fer Use of the hyphen Words with the /i: / sound spelt ei after c Words containing the letter-string ough Words with ‘silent’ letters (i. e. letters whose presence cannot be predicted from the pronunciation of the word) • Homophones and other words that are often confused (continued)
Guided Reading and Guided reading sessions last half an hour they are led by Miss Wiblin. Sessions will focus on different AF’s (assessment focus’) each week: Text retrieval; Deduce, refer, interpret information, events or ideas. Identify and comment on text structure and organisation. Look at the writer’s use of language.

Addition Written Methods 164 +125 289 5486 +1225 6711 1 1
Subtraction 165 – 34 = 165 _ 34 131 174 – 46 = 6 1 174 46 128 Check with inverse – 128 + 46 174 1
Calculation Strategies
Short Multiplicati on 34 x 6 204 2
Short Multiplication – Using larger numbers
Long Multiplication – Using 2 possible methods
Grid Method
Division – Using multiplication 3 x 4 = 12 12 ÷ 4 = 3 facts So 30 x 4 = 120 3 x 40 = 120 300 x 4 = 1200 0. 4 x 3 = 1. 2 0. 004 x 0. 003 =0. 000012 So 120 ÷ 4 = 3 120 ÷ 40 = 3 1200 ÷ 400 = 3 1. 2 ÷ 4 = 0. 3
