Phonics

See the source image

We use the Read Write Inc. Scheme for phonics. As your child progresses through Read Write Inc phonics, they will take learning support materials home including QR codes (related to the sounds and words they are learning to blend to read) and books (reflecting their current phonic knowledge and skills). Phonic books include the following:

Storybooks: Each week your child will take home a copy of the storybook they have just read at school. Re-reading familiar stories helps to improve your child’s fluency and comprehension.

Book Bag Books: These books are matched to the storybooks your child has read in school. They are used for extra practice.

Have a look at some of the amazing activities we have been up to in the Autumn Term so far 🙂

Year 1 Curriculum Information Autumn Term 2024-25

We had a visit from Levi Trefari on National Poetry Day. We joined in with his poems and had a go at writing our own poems.

As part of our Harvest topic, we found out about Sukkot. We had a go at creating a model of a Sukkah using our construction toys.

Art

We have been looking at primary and secondary colours in our Art lessons and worked out how to create different shades of green to decorate a handprint.

Mathematics

Following the White Rose Maths scheme, we have been comparing numbers using the comparison symbols.

Art

We have used our knowledge of primary and secondary colours to create a circle design based on the work of Clarice Cliff

Extra Curricular

We had an amazing opportunity to visit Laurel’s Wood Forest School. We learnt how to make fire and made marshmallows on it, created flags using flowers and leaves, made medallions by sawing wood and drilling a hole for the string and created dens using sticks and leaves from the area.

Mathematics

We are learning about Place Value within 20. We have been finding out about teen numbers and have used ten frames to show that one full ten plus some of another ten shows us teen numbers.
