Our text this half term is...

The Selfish Giant

by Oscar Wilde

Our theme question is...

What impact did the Industrial Revolution have on the UK and our local area?

Useful information:

Year 6 PE days are Wednesdays and Thursdays (starting WC 21.9.20). On these days, children are to come into school wearing a smart PE kit.

Homework will be set on a Friday and will be due on a Tuesday.

Reminder:

Our homework will be set using the app SeeSaw. For your child to use Seesaw, the app needs your child’s name in order to be able to associate work like their photos, videos or voice recordings with their account. Seesaw only uses this information to provide the service and doesn’t advertise in Seesaw, create profiles of students, or share or sell your child’s personal information or journal content.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in order for your child to use Seesaw, school must get your consent. We ask that parents/carers email school on help@whitbyheath.cheshire.sch.uk to give your written consent.

We will need you to email:

· Your child’s full name

· Their year group

· Their class name

· Your written consent that they can use Seesaw.

Once we have received your email and consent, we can then email you back with your child’s QR code/home learning text code and information.

If you require paper versions of any pieces of work set on Seesaw, please speak to your child’s class teacher and they will sort this for you.
