Welcome to the Summer term! 

This term our topic is 'What lies beneath?'. We will create an EPIC plan in class together and tasks linked to our AOLE focus. Home learning tasks will be linked to our topic and will be available online for you to access. 

This term is going to be fun-filled and action-packed! We have so much to fit in before you finish with us!

This term we will be focusing on your independence when completing tasks at home - this is a skill that will be imperative for tackling the homework challenges in comprehensive. We will be using a checking in system for homework completed, and the data will be shared with your Year 7 Leader of learning from Olchfa (alongside other important information about you!)

Important dates for this term 

Olchfa CHAT counsellors - 5th May 

Activity week - 26th - 30th June

Transition week - 4th July - 7th July

Check up Tests

Spelling words will be allocated on Spelling Shed on a Friday, in preparation for a test the following Friday. Access to Spelling Shed will be allowed in class and at home and time will be given throughout the week in class. Tests are then administered online with instant feedback and a breakdown of words spelt correctly and incorrectly. 

As well as spelling, punctuation and grammar lessons will also be allocated. Lessons and games will help support the learning objective - there is no test for this section. 

A numeracy check up test will also be completed on a Friday which will comprise of times tables and some questions linked to the current focus area.  

Homework 

Once we have completed our EPIC Planning, a new home learning menu will be set which will incorporate ideas and activities that cover the areas of learning and that the children have helped generate. 

Maths homework will be uploaded onto our class page sporadically for all to access at any time. It will help support our areas of learning in class.
