Autumn Term 2024

A warm welcome to Year 1!

The Year 1 class teachers are Miss Ruth (1A) and Miss Yamamoto (1B).

Reading at Home

Children will be sent home with reading books appropriate for their level in reading. These will be changed regularly. The extra practice is vital to help the children improve their fluency and gain a passion for reading. We ask that you write in the reading record every time you read with your child to help us identify their progress in that reading level.

Homework

Homework will be sent home on Thursday and is due in on Tuesday. Children will be expected to complete Maths and English homework as well as spellings and handwriting. In addition, we encourage children to learn their number bonds to 20 and counting in 2s, 5s and 10s.

PE

Year 1 will have PE on a Wednesday. Please ensure your child come to school in their PE kit which should consist of: Black shorts or jogging bottoms, plain purple t-shirt and trainers or plimsolls. All jewellery that is worn, needs to be removed or taped down to ensure your child’s safety during PE.

Please note:

Children are not allowed to bring in birthday bags or cakes.

No jewellery except stud earrings and religious jewellery.

Thank you and we look forward to meeting you.

Miss Ruth and Miss Yamamoto
