The staff in Year one work together as a team to provide and support the children in their learning.
We are very fortunate to have a wonderful building and fantastic outdoor spaces. We make full use of these to facilitate our learning, making it fun! We strive to provide a wealth of experiences that enable all pupils to succeed. Within our class it is important to us that everyone feels valued and achieves their best.
We have lots of exciting topics and educational visits planned for this year to broaden the children’s learning.
Years One and Two Long Term Plan
Our Weekly Routine
Every morning and three afternoons will be taught by Miss Doran. Wednesday and Thursday afternoons will be taught by Miss Jackson. Miss Kelly, Ms Davies and Mrs Hazelhurst will support the class each day.
PE will be taught on a Tuesday Afternoon and Thursday afternoon.
Swimming will take place in the Summer term on a Thursday Morning.
Reading in Year 1
Children will continue to move through the levelled books, which are linked to our Phonics. We encourage the children to read at home as much as they can. In school, children will be listened to at least once a week. We ask that the children read at least 4 times a week to receive 5 dojos.

Homework and Spellings in Year 1
Spellings will be linked to the sound the children have been learning in Phonics that week. A few spellings will be sent home on a Friday to learn ready for a spelling test the Friday after.
Year One will also receive some Common Exception words to learn. The children are expected to be able to read and spell these correctly by the end of the academic year.
