Weekly Routines

Word Aware

Our topic this term is ‘Who do You Think You Are?’

The below list is part of an initiative called Word Aware that we are using in school. We thought it would be helpful to share this list with you so that you can use some of these words at home when discussing the topic. If your child speaks a different language at home, it would be helpful to discuss and translate these words using your home language. We may add to this list during the topic as new words are introduced.

Spellings

Children are expected to learn words from both lists each week.

French 

French homework is optional but we recommend children use Year 6’s French Google Classroom, Linguascope and Belmont’s French Website to consolidate what has been taught in class.

French Google Classroom

All year 6 children have be invited to their French Google classroom where they can find French tasks and activities.

Belmont French Website

Go to Belmont’s French website to find out what we have been doing in class and for extra activities and videos. The French website is updated regularly. Children must login to their Belmont Google account to access the website.

Linguascope

We recommend children use Linguascope regularly to learn French and other languages for our Language of the Month.

Click on the image below to log on to Linguascope, where you can learn and practise online! Remember, the log in details can be found on Google Classroom.

Reading for Pleasure Book List

As part of our focus on reading in school, we would like to develop the lending library of books within each class. This will enable the children to foster a passion and love of reading at Belmont and ensure that they have access to high quality texts.

Please find links to two book lists that have a variety of we would love to have in class.

Once a book has been donated to the class we tick it off below.
