WELCOME 

TO 

YEAR 1

SUMMER TERM

We hope you have all had a lovely Easter and enjoyed time seeing family and friends. We can’t believe it is the summer term already. Last term, we were so proud of how hard the children worked.

This term we will be involved in an exciting whole school ‘Wildlife Connections’ project ‘. Basic skills for reading and writing are continuing to be developed during Year One and this term there will be lots of opportunities for non-fiction writing about improving our habitats and bees.

Maths

We will be introducing multiplication and division through grouping and sharing, exploring fractions (halves and quarters), position and direction, extending our place value knowledge to 100, recognising money and time (o’clock and half past). Lots of new vocabulary will be introduced and reinforced.

Reading 

We have been amazed by the effort that has been put into reading. We can see lots of progress and confidence is really growing. The children have enjoyed receiving stickers as part of our ‘Read Around the World’ whole school challenge. Thank you for your support with this. We will continue to change reading books and check reading diaries every Tuesday however, if your child wants to change them more frequently they are more than welcome to do this during registration.

Science

We will be exploring plants then covering the Year One RSE (relationships and sex education) curriculum which explores different friends, growing and changing, and families and care.

R.E

In R.E we will be exploring Judaism

Homework

Will continue to be handed out on a Friday and should be returned completed by Wednesday. English homework will be phonics based to help prepare the children for the phonics screening check in June,.

P.E

P.E is on a Tuesday and Thursday. Please ensure your child has their P.E kit in school and that all items are labelled.

Thank you for your continued support. If you have any questions or concerns, please do come and see us.
