The main purpose of this Mathematics Homework is to make your life, as a teacher of Year 6 pupils, as easy as possible. All of the homework activities are based on the renewed Primary Framework for mathematics; however, as they assess specific learning objectives they can be used in conjunction with other planned teaching schemes.
Each homework activity sheet addresses a whole, or part of, a learning objective. The questions are written to test the understanding of your pupils once they have worked on a topic in the lesson. This in turn, will provide you with the information required to assess the pupils’ learning, and will enable you to plan your lessons effectively.
With a full set of answers included you can be confident that your students are getting regular, relevant homework that tests their understanding across the Year 6 objectives and all seven core strands. This easy-to-use CD will reduce the time spent preparing and marking homework enabling you use your time as efficiently as possible.
The Year 6 curriculum is structured into five blocks, reflecting the same structure as the other primary year groups. Each block is made up of three units, and each unit represents two or three weeks of teaching. The blocks are:
• Block A: Counting, partitioning and calculating
• Block B: Securing number facts, understanding shape
• Block C: Handling data and measures
• Block D: Calculating, measuring and understanding shape
• Block E: Securing number facts, relationships and calculating

It can often be very difficult to teach inference to less able readers because they cannot access challenging texts. Texts that support the teaching of ‘reading between the lines’, or inference and deduction. The use of photographs as a first approach in this resource means all children can develop these important comprehension skills.
Each unit contains: Text 1 provides a story or explanation about the photograph that uses inference to give information (there are hints, but the author doesn’t explicitly say what is happening);Text 2 is an alternative text which makes the story really obvious. There is little or no inference and the simplicity of the text provides a good comparison with Text 1.
The texts are written to support the teaching of inference and deduction and will probably need to be read to the children. The point of the exercise is not for the children to decode the texts but to understand and answer questions about it.
Unit 1 available free on our both our website and TES shop.

The range of activities here has been designed to excite interest as well as guide children and teachers through the rules.
The guide is organised in an incremental way, later tasks being built on earlier ones. Step by step, each exercise calls upon skills and terminology already explored. In this way, both the child and their teacher will develop a sense of the progress being made. At any particular age, of course, children will be working at different levels and may need either more fundamental or more challenging work set for them
The guide has three main sections: word, sentence (including punctuation) and text. Each section has an introductory page which can be enlarged to create an explanatory poster for display purposes. At the end, there is a glossary explaining the terminology used in the book, as well as an answer section.

Horror stories have common features, such as: – a setting that is uncomfortable, creepy or scary. Often these are unusual places; – use of darkness and cold to unsettle the reader; – use descriptive words to create an atmosphere – appealing to all the reader’s senses; – create suspense through building up tension and sudden action; – suspense is built through long compound sentences and action is sudden and ‘jumpy’ conveyed through short, dramatic sentences; – dramatic endings and use of cliffhangers. - there will usually be a sinister, evil villain There is often an element of guesswork through clues given in the text. Who is bad – or carried out an evil deed – can be hidden and concludes with a moment of revelation; – include simplistic themes of right and wrong, and good over evil.
This sheet is designed to prompt discussions on the features of a specific genre.
