Welcome to Year 1/2
Year 1 follow our phonics scheme Little Wandle Letters & Sounds which also links to their reading skills lessons.
Summer Overview
Remember:
- PE is on Thursday and Friday each week. Please ensure your child’s PE kit is in school during the week. Children need black shorts or legging and a plain white t-shirt. All children should have well-fitting pumps in school. Please remove earrings on the days when your child has PE.
- Homework and spellings will be sent home on Fridays and need to be returned by the following Thursday. Children will receive 3 Dojos if they return their homework by Wednesday. Children will be tested on their spellings each Thursday.
- Homework projects are sent home each half term. This half term our project is all about Our Town. Your project can be anything! Perhaps you could make a model, a poster, share some writing or research.
- Please try to support your child with their reading at home at least 4 times a week, and make a short note about their progress in their yellow reading record. Children will receive Dojos and rewards in class whenever they read at home. Children will continue to bring home a Library book each week. This book is to read with you, they may not be able to access it on their own.
If you have any questions please feel free to come and talk to us at the classroom door before or after school or send a message on Class Dojo.
