Our Curriculum

TOPIC – Frozen Realms

Please find this half-term’s Knowledge Organiser in the Downloads box to the right.

Writing

This half term we will be using tales from polar exploration to inspire our writing.  

In Year 6, we constantly strive to be ambitious and effective writers, creating texts with purpose which entertain and inform our readers and using our best vocabulary, spelling, handwriting, punctuation and grammar. Below are the year 5/6 statutory spellings.

Reading

In reading lessons we will be focusing on our VIPERS skills: vocabulary, inference, prediction, explanation, retrieval and summarising. We will be doing lots of practice of these key skills in preparation for this year’s SATs assessments.
