Bayside Academy

Year 6 Core Home Learning Tasks

Hello everyone!

We cannot believe that this is the last learning pack, which we will be sending home to you. We hope you have enjoyed completing the home learning. It might have been a struggle at times but we are proud of you for doing your best. The work below is for the next two weeks so do take your time. You also have an extended topic sheet to work your way through.

It has been an absolute pleasure to teach you all over the last year. We hope you have enjoyed your time at Bayside Academy and we know you will all go on to do great things.

See you soon,

Mr Chaffey and Miss McKenzie

Here is your work for the next two weeks beginning 06.07.20

For each subject you will see a short explanation which tells you what you need to do to complete the task. The column next to it will have some steps to success or a model that will also help you. It may also give you some ideas which you could use in your work.

Over the next two weeks, it is up to you how you complete the tasks and when. Fit it in around your day and try to establish a routine.

Please make sure you balance your choices so you are doing a bit of everything. There is also a box called ‘Other’ with some links to website where you can try other activities.
