Year Six - Sycamore

Sycamore Class

Welcome to Year 6!

Term 3 The Trojan Horse - Myth, Legend or Fact?

Our topic this term allows us to explore the causes and consequences of the 10-year war between Sparta and Troy, and evaluate the conflicting evidence relating to the famous story of the so-called Trojan Horse, which has been passed down through the generations.

We will look more broadly at Ancient Greek life and their achievements, and their on-going influence on the Western world.

PE days this term are Mondays and Fridays - please come to school in appropriate school PE kit.

Homework is set a little differently in Y6 compared to the other classes, in preparation for the transition to secondary school where they will need to be more self-sufficient and organised.

Therefore homework will be set on Monday and due in on the Thursday.

This homework will sometimes take the form of Mathletics tasks (if there are issues around accessing this at home we can make other arrangements).
