Daily Reading
I expect all children to read for a minimum of 30 minutes every weekday. They can read a variety of books of their choice. They can read it independently, read to a family member or even be read to! Spending time with a book has boundless health benefits and can help children succeed in school. In other words:
reading is the key that can unlock success!
If you would like some great texts to read to your children, check out the Recommended Reading Lists that are uploaded below. I've categorised the fiction books into genres so you can find books similar to what you know you already enjoy. I have also included the book's Accelerated Reader level where possible.
If you're reading a book at home and are interested in its Accelerated Reader level, use the website www.arbookfind.co.uk to find out.
Many teachers at Kingfield love to read and are always willing to give out book recommendations! Don't be shy to ask an adult for a book they think you might like.
Homework & Spelling
Homework is an integral part to consolidating learning from school. You should aim to spend at least 30 minutes on homework and spelling each week.
Homework is set by Mr Shenton on a Tuesday using MyMaths. It needs to be completed by the following Tuesday. If it is not handed in on time, you may miss your break to complete it.
In addition, you will be given 5 spelling words to learn from a rule, pattern or theme. Your weekly spelling test will test the same rule, pattern or theme. You'll need to dedicate some time each week to practising your spellings.

Our Values
Through regular assemblies, class time and cross-curricular lessons, we will look at our four key values: Respect, Resilience, Empathy and Reflection.
Our values are embedded into all aspects of our day-to-day learning, helping us to become the best that we can be.
Our Year 6 play a vital role in the day to day life running of the school with a variety of roles and responsibilities. In September, children will be interviewed after they have applied for the role.
