We will also be encouraging you to read a wide range of genres this year too - why not choose something to read that is different to the books you would usually go for? Visit our Reading for Pleasure section for more ideas!

Times Table Rockstars
 
Knowledge of times tables facts is a key basic tool for success in maths. In Y6, you need to know these crucial number facts by heart and be able to apply them with speed and accuracy so that you can tackle more complex maths problems such as fractions, decimals and percentages. You should complete a minimum of two games on the tables that have been set for you each week.
