Below is a brief outline of the learning that will take place this term:
Literacy: Oracy, Reading & Writing
Spelling & Letters & Sounds: We will be continuing with the Letters & Sounds programme. We will be learning how to apply phonic knowledge to read and write words. Individual spelling words will be sent home and we ask that you support your child through learning their weekly spelling and tricky words. We will test the children for spelling every Friday. Your support is very much needed and appreciated.
Writing: In our class we love to base our learning on topical picture books. This term we will be using lots of stories to help the children write with greater independence. We will rewrite stories, innovate stories and write for many different purposes in fun and exciting way.
Reading: Please log on to your Oxford Buddy. We encourage the children to read a little every day. They do not need to read the whole book, a couple of pages is sometimes enough. Remember to ask your child questions such as what they think might happen next and what they like about the story. Please sign your child’s reading record book when they read to you.
Numeracy The children will have the opportunity to explore a range of activities in Numeracy, with emphasis on using Numicon. This term the topics will include: writing number to 20 and beyond, counting to 100, odd and even numbers, doubling and halving, counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s as well as addition and subtraction. We will play lots of fun, hands on games to develop skills and confidence.
Class Dojos & Star of the Week We love our Class Dojos and this will continue in Year 1. We will choose a class dojo champion at the end of every week to reward good behaviour and excellent learning as well as a Star of the Week for outstanding work.
DCF The children will develop their ICT Skills, making use of the class i-pads and computers. Children will be encouraged to explore the Hwb network with the many programmes it offers.
