Reading good quality texts at home will also help your child to develop their vocabulary as well as gaining ideas for their own writing. The most important aspect of reading is enjoyment.

From March, a daily problem will be released by the White Rose Maths Hub in the lead up to the SATs. This can be found here: http://whiterosemathshub.co.uk/problemoftheday/  

Lastly, maths salamanders has several Year 6 sheets (which can be printed or just viewed online) with a variety of different questions covering a mixture of topics. There is a separate sheet with the answers. This is excellent for testing you child’s ability to switch between topics.
