Work Expectations

Children in Year 6 are expected to produce legible, cursive handwriting with consistent letter size. Handwriting should maintain this high level of presentation in all work books. 

Maths

At Meadlands, we expect the children to take great pride and care with all their written work. At the start of the year, a maths lesson is dedicated to the reminding the children how to set out their math's work,  so that the layout is consistent across the year group. 

Our expectations around layout is: 

1. Use of a margin - 2 squares wide.

2. All headings and sub-headings underlined with a ruler. 

3. Any diagrams drawn using a ruler.

4. All maths work completed in pencil, or purple pen for responding to marking or completing reasoning and problem solving work. 

5. A digit per maths square.

Moving on to secondary school.
