Year 1

Welcome to Year 1

The staff working in Y1A this year are Mrs McKean (Monday-Wednesday), Mrs Worrell (Wednesday-Friday) and Mrs Baig. The staff in Y1B this year are Miss Logue and Mrs Khan. Mrs Shaine supports across both Year 1 classes. 

Please see the documents below to find out what we are learning in Year 1. This shows what we are learning in each subject.

 

P.E.

Year 1 will have P.E. with Miss Heyes on a Wednesday. Children must come to school wearing full P.E. Kit. Earrings must be removed, hair tied back and your child will need a water bottle and coat. 

Parent Hub

We use Parent Hub to keep parents up to date with any key information and to show parents what we have been doing in Year 1. It is essential parents are signed up to Parent Hub in order to keep up to date with information from the classroom.

Homework

Changing reading books

Children in year 1 have their own individual label that states which day they need to change their book. 

Children’s choice / Library book – will be changed on the day their phonics book is changed.

The books must be brought back on the correct day to make sure there is time to change them.

Spellings 

Spellings will be given via Parent Hub each week. 

It is important that the children try and use their phonic sounds to segment these words. Even if the word is not spelt correctly but they have used their phonics, that is fine. For example, if the children were spelling play, they may spell it like this, plai. 

Please could your child also write a sentence using one of the words above. When completed, children can bring them into school for a teacher to look at.
