Please feel free to contact any of us on Class Dojos if you have any questions.

As a team, we work hard to support each child to reach their full potential, build confidence and independence and to approach learning in a happy and contented manner helping them grow into well-rounded individuals.

To aid with the transition from Foundation Stage into Year 1, we will be using a continuous provision approach within Year 1 so students will still have the opportunity to explore, create and play whilst applying their learning.

The students will have daily Phonics, Maths and English lessons as well as weekly Science, History or Geography, DT or Art, Computing, French, RE and Music. On top of this, they will have daily opportunities to rehearse this learning within the provision with activities linked to each of these lessons.

What to remember, when...

Tuesday	Homework handed in. (Given out on a Thursday)
Friday	Please ensure you child has their P.E kit for Gymnastics today.
Monday and Friday.	Please ensure your child has their P.E kit for P.E today.

Homework

Homework will be given weekly on a Thursday and handed in on a Tuesday. Homework is linked to what the children have been doing in class over the week and allows them to practise and reinforce the skills that they have been developing at school.

Reading

Students need to read at home with an adult atleast 3 times a week (more if possible).

Books need to be in school daily and will be changed each week inline with our guided reading scheme. We use Little Wandle for guided reading and phonics. There is lots of support for parents on their website if you wish to support at home.

As well as listening to your child read, we encourage you to read to your child as much as possible, which helps them develop their language and listening skills, as well as their imagination, understanding of the world and enjoyment of reading.
