Welcome to Year 1. Mrs Samtaney-Roberts will be teaching Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. Mrs Monkman will be teaching on Wednesday Morning, Thursday and Friday.
Year 1 develops with more focused tasks and ‘learning through the classroom’ opportunities every day. The children will have exercise books for all subjects which will show a lovely journey of their learning.
In Year 1, we aim to prepare children to become independent writers. The children will learn how to write for a range of genres and writing for a purpose in mind. They will develop their grammar, spellings skills and learn how to edit their own writing.
Over the year, we will focus on the common exception words, alongside phonics and spelling shed. In order to spell 'most' of these words correctly in their everyday writing, we will support the children with this in the classroom and encourage them to practice at home too.
(See statutory spelling list below)
