Year 1
Welcome to Year One
Welcome to Year One – Summer
A very warm welcome to Year 1 2025-2026. Miss Breed and Mrs Norris are the Year 1 teachers with Miss Mannion and Miss Hall supporting learning.
In Year 1, we follow the National Curriculum and our morning consists of Maths, Phonics and Curriculum learning. We link all our learning to a range of exciting topics which engage the children and immerse them in fun learning.
Our curriculum topics this Autumn term include;
Narrative – Dragon Post - Where we will be sequencing a story to support writing an alternative ending.
Science – Where we will be learning about animals including humans.
History – Neil Armstrong – How was he an important explorer?
Science – Plants and how they grow
D+T – sewing a bookmark
In Mathematics, we are going to be learning about Multiplication and Division, fractions, place value to 100, money and time. As well as this, we will be consolidating all previous learning and will begin to use Times Tables Rockstars to support our learning.
Phonics –Phonics is the gateway to the world – good phonetic knowledge and the ability to read enables great things! Daily phonics lessons and reading at home enable this. Don’t forget that there are lots of ways to read – magazines, comics, recipes, street signs etc. Polite reminder: our phonics screening checks will be taking place wc 8th June – if you need any additional information regarding this, please do get in touch with Miss Breed or Mrs Norris.
PE – our PE day will be on a Friday. Please send your child to school in their full PE kit and all jewellery needs to be removed.
Thank you for your continued support!
The Year 1 team.
