Year 1

Welcome to Class 1H

Welcome back to the start of our exciting Summer 1 Term Year 1!

After a well-deserved half-term break, we are ready to start a new term of learning, growth and fun. We will be building on the skills developed earlier in the year while exploring new and exciting topics. Please check out the Year 1 overview to gain an insight to what we will be learning this term.

Reminders:

A named water bottle or plastic cup must be sent in – it can be topped up, if necessary, in class – and taken home daily for washing. Please ensure that your child’s P.E. kit is in school.

All uniforms need to be clearly labelled please.

Regular reading at home is important as it is proven to build your child’s confidence, build self-esteem, expand vocabulary and build fluency. It is very important to discuss the book with your children to ensure they understand what they are reading. 

Important Information

• Book bags must be brought to school daily, as we will endeavour to read with your child as often as we can. Try to read at home every day just a few pages to build their fluency.
• Children receive fruit and milk for the morning break, but they may bring in a healthy snack if they would prefer their own.
• Phonics begins at 9 am, children must be in school on time, if they are late, they will be missing their sound of the day. Coming into school late can leave the children feeling very worried and anxious. Please ensure they are in school at 8.50 am. The gates open at 8.45 am.

We are setting ourselves a challenge in Year One, to see how many of our Year One Common Exception words we can read and spell.
