Year 1

This year Year 1 will be taught by Miss Wilding with support from Miss Blackie (Mon & Thurs afternoons), Mrs Ward and Miss Walton.

 

Autumn Term

We are looking forward to many exciting activities this term in Year 1.

 

In the morning our first job is to practise our phonics then we move into our English learning. After a snack and playtime, we begin our Maths topic - this term we are learning about addition and subtraction before moving onto shape.

 

Our afternoons begin with Mastering Number sessions followed by various National Curriculum topics. 

We also complete our reading practice weekly on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons. Books will be sent home on a Friday and need to be returned each Wednesday. Please read with your child every night - this will have a big impact on their reading confidence.

 

Foundation subjects:

Science – We are continuing our learning about everyday materials, their properties and uses.

History – We are going to be learning about famous explorers.

RE – Christianity and the Christmas story

Music – Singing

PSHCE – We will be learning about ourselves, relationships and feelings.

PE - Gymnastics.

 

Home Learning

Please practise the phonics sounds sent home as this is really important in supporting your child.
