Year 1

SUMMER TERM

We will start our new term by learning all about Spring and how the weather changes. I always think that is strange as the term is called Summer.

Please make sure that P.E. kits are in school as soon as the new terms starts. Reading Partnership homework will commence on Monday 16th April. Spellings will be sent home along with some Phonic revision grids for some children. We discussed this at Parent's Evening. Thanks for all your support with the Spelling and Reading partnership homework.

As the children are moving towards transition to Year 2 there will be a greater emphasis on working independently. The children will be working either independently or in a focus groups after whole class teaching. Early finishes will either do an extension task or go to the provision areas to complete challenges. We still work on appropriate learning behaviours and how to fill those buckets!

In class, we will be working hard to earn Dojos for our Silver Award. There are a number of children who are quite close! Some parents are logged on to Class Dojo and we can message each other which is quite fun! The children will also make right choices and fill buckets so that we can all have ‘Celebration’ time on Friday!

Please take a look at our curriculum map and if you can offer any help or expertise do not hesitate to speak to a member of the Year 1 team.

Year 1, Mrs Rattigan, Mrs Phelan, Ms Smith, Miss Moloney and Ms Prince
