Welcome

Leaving Reception behind and moving into Year 1 can feel like a big step for both children and their parents. To ensure that the transition from the Early Years into Year 1 is smooth, we begin in September with a play-based approach to learning that feels familiar to our children. Our Year 1 pupils continue to enjoy access to an outdoor area, role-play, and sensory activities which develop fine and gross motor skills as well as much more. This allows them to explore, discover and develop in their own way.

Please visit the website regularly to check for any updates.  We will also post information, photos and videos on Class Dojo.

Reading – Children should read to a someone at home 4 times a week and have this recorded in their reading diary. This should be a quality 10 minute read.

There will also be a reading challenge for each of the holidays too.

Online Apps – Passwords and usernames for our online apps are the same as previous years. This is the same username and password for Spelling Shed. If you require a reminder, please send a Class Dojo message about this.

Spelling Shed – Each child has tasks assigned to them. Please ensure that your child logs on for at least 10 minutes a week to practise their phonic spellings.

TT Rockstars is optional but it’s always good to practise. https://ttrockstars.com/
