The Curriculum
At Mersey Vale, we are proud to follow a curriculum personalised to our learners. Throughout the year we have many exciting opportunities to enrich our learning with theme weeks and educational visits. All children in Y6 receive additional one-to-one support from the class teacher to consolidate their learning and help children catch-up with any missed learning due to the disruption caused by Covid-19.

Homework
Homework includes a variety of online, written and practical activities and is given on a Friday and shared via the Class Story on Dojo. This year, we are encouraging children to use their online portfolios to submit their work. Spellings are given on a Monday for a test on Friday.

Year 5/6 Words
Common Exception Words for Years 5 and 6
There are lots of key words children need to be able to spell by the end of Year Six in addition to spelling rules and patterns they are learning. Each week children will be set spellings to learn and these will be posted on the Class Dojo page.
Alongside being able to spell these words, children will be using these within their work to enhance the meaning of their writing.
