Year 1

Welcome to Year 1!

Welcome to Year 1 where we love to learn at every opportunity. 

We spend a lot of our time learning through games, songs and practical activities. We have lots of fun becoming historians, readers, writers, artists plus many other things.

Class Novels this Term

We love reading books in Year 1. We read a story every day. Some of these will be linked to our topics and others will be the children's choice. 

Homework

Homework is a mixture of online learning and a piece of paper homework each week. We expect children will access Numbots for 5 minutes each week, practise their spellings and complete a test on SpellingFrame each week and complete their Oxford Owl quizzes. If you have any difficulties with any of these, please let me know.
