Autumn Term

Welcome to Year 1! 

English: In the Autumn term we will be reading and writing Traditional Tales, Recounts, Character Descriptions and fact files. 

Maths: We will be exploring the numbers from 0-20: exploring counting, adding, subtracting and representing: and exploring shape. 

For a more detailed overview, please see the curriculum overview at the bottom of this class page.

Homework: In Year 1 our priorities are phonics and reading. We encourage children to read at home at least 5 days a week. The children can gain certificates and move up the reading awards the more times they read. in preparation for our Phonics screening in June, we also encourage daily practise of the sounds that we have learnt in class...more information to follow. In addition, the children may sometimes have small homework activities to help with their other subjects, such as History. 

PE days

PE will take place on a Monday PM and Thursday PM. Children should come into school in their PE kit on these days. No earrings or watches are allowed. Children need to have a blue PE shirt, blue shorts and/or jogging bottoms, a warm jacket, trainers and socks.

As ever, if you require any further information, please come and chat to the class teacher after school or send an email via the school office secretary@st-michaels-school.org
