Class 1

Welcome to Year 1

Mrs Blagg

2023-2024

To stay up to date with our learning in Year 1, please visit our school blog.

In Year 1 our children continue to learn through play, building on their experiences in Reception as well as developing more formal ways of learning. The Curriculum is designed to take into consideration personal learning styles and interests whilst delivering the National Curriculum.

Reading

Please read regularly with your child to support their learning. Reading at home should consist of parents listening and questioning their child, for a bare minimum of 3 times a week. I cannot stress how important this is and what a huge impact reading has on all areas of the learning

Homework

All pupils will have a class dojo so that the children can access their homework tasks and they will also be sent home with your child each week. Reading, Spellings and topic tasks will be featured regularly. Spellings will be checked on Friday and new spellings will be given each week.

PE

PE is taught every week. Your child needs to have a full PE kit in school everyday.

This includes:

A red t-shirt

Black/navy shorts

School tracksuit

Black pumps

Trainers

Please could you check that all jumpers, coats and PE kits are named.  

Keep an eye out for your termly ‘Parents as Partners’ Leaflet to give you an idea of the exciting things we have planned this year. These are also found on our termly pages on this website.
