Term 1 Learning

Hello and welcome to Year 1

In term 1 our topic is 'What a wonderful world' 

English

Writing

Our class texts this term will be based around the story ‘Rainbow Fish’.

The Rainbow Fish. Pfister, Marcus. The Rainbow Fish… | by Soojin Kim |  Medium

We will be using this book as a stimulus when writing our own stories. We will start by doing lots of discussion around language and really engaging with the comprehension of the book. We will then begin to focus on sentence structure - the importance of capital letters at the beginning of a sentence and for a name, as well as full stops at the end of a sentence. We will be making sure we are putting spaces between words so it can be read back and become more independent in our writing. We are also focusing on our presentation and handwriting, ensuring our letters are formed correctly. We will be focusing on applying all our Phase 2, Phase 3 phonemes as well as our Phase 4 knowledge to our words and spelling our common exception words correctly.  

 

Reading and Phonics

This term in Phonics we will be consolidating all our Phase 2 and 3 phonemes. We will be continuing to apply all our reading and also including comprehension questions to make sure we are understanding what we are reading fully.

Children will have a reading book matched to their phonics ability for you to read at home. They will also have a word box which links to the phonic sounds they need to practice. Please engage in the whole school reading challenge. We expect every child to read at home at least 5 times a week.

Maths

We will be covering the objectives of:

  • Place Value to 10
  • Addition 

We will also be starting Year 1 maths planets. Overview is attached or given to you at our meet the teacher meeting.
