Christmas homework
For your Christmas writing task, write about your Christmas traditions. If you have a family member from a different country/culture, I would love to hear about their traditions too. Include a description of what you do over the Christmas period, how presents are received, what food it eaten, Christmas decorations etc.... You can even bring in photos!
Have a wonderful Christmas and a brilliant new year. I look forward to welcoming you all back in the spring term.
Love from Mrs Bracknell and the Year 6 team x

You will need to save your work in the My Work folder and then share it on the correct display board for your age. The winning design will become the official Purple Mash festive card and the winners will be awarded 50 printed copies of your card, a £20 Amazon voucher and a Goody Bag. The card will also be made into an ecard through Purple Mash. The closing date for the competition is 24th November. Click on the link below to see how to submit your design. Good luck everyone!
