Year 6
Below are lots of documents, PowerPoints and tests that you can do in the run up to SATs.
Each one is linked to learning we have done in class and will help you to revise for you SATs.
There is a mix of Maths, Reading and SPaG which will look at revising key concepts and then testing you on them.
There are answers where these are needed but please do not look at these until you have completed the activity.
