Welcome to year 1!

PE is every Tuesday. 

Reading

In Year 1, the children have a reading book that they need to bring to school daily. The book levels are based on the phonics assessments that are updated regularly. Children should be able to confidently read the book without needing to decode the words before the book is changed. We ask that you practice reading at home at least 4 -5 times a week. We find that little and often is usually most effective with young children as they may struggle to concentrate. It is also good if you get chance to share a book with them that is beyond their reading ability to help build a wide range of vocabulary. We have a story at the end of every day and these are often longer stories that we can build up over time.
