Welcome back to the Summer Term!
English and Mathematics will continue to be taught daily and focus on key writing skills and mathematical calculations.
For more details about our learning this term, please see the Curriculum Overview.
Our current topic is ‘Light up the World’ where we be exploring our musical talents and showing our creativity through drawing.
After this, our theme will be ‘Royal Patrons’ and we will be finishing off the year with our exciting topic ‘Zero to Hero’.
PSHEe, MFL, R.E and Science will be taught discreetly.
Please can we remind parents that no jewellery should be worn in school with the exception of stud earrings, and in line with Health and Safety guidelines these should not be worn on PE days. Children may be asked to remove earrings before PE sessions.
Year 1 PE sessions are:
Class 4 – Monday and Thursday
Class 5 – Monday and Thursday
Class 6 – Tuesday and Thursday
Please ensure that children have the correct PE kit in school at all times; PE kits can be purchased from the school office. We ask that children also have an outdoor P.E kit for the colder months. This should consist of trainers, jogging bottoms and a tracksuit top.
Phonics will continue to be of high priority this term. Each week, children we be bringing home real and nonsense word games to play. This will support your child in practising their phonics phonemes in preparation for the phonics screening check week commencing 10th June. There are many free online games and activities available to support your child with their phonics learning, such as, ‘Phonics Play’ and ‘Phonics Bloom’. As always, we cannot stress the importance of daily reading of the sound and word bags and regular reading of reading books.
Children will continue to receive regular homework. As always, children will be expected to read regularly at home including their new sound and word bags. Weekly phonic spellings will be given out on a Friday and tested on the following Friday and children will continue with their purple creative homework book with outlined activities.
We will continue with morning toast up until close of register and we will offer a piece of fruit for their morning snack. We ask that all children have a water bottle available in school every day.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher, who will usually be available at the end of each day. We anticipate a busy and exciting term ahead and we thank you in anticipation of your continued support.
