Welcome to our class website page. Here you will find lots of information about the things we will be busy doing in school. Make sure you check the website regularly for any updates we might have put on here. We look forward to sharing our Year 1 journey together.
From Mrs Dobson and Miss Roberts
Watch out for all the latest news here! I will let you know what has been updated on the website.
What's coming up?
Autumn Term
Have you seen any signs of Autumn? We enjoy looking at the changing seasons in our class, and we have been outside to spot the signs of Autumn. We have seen leaves changing colour, trees are becoming bare, the air feels chilly. Let us know what you see when you are out and about. In our science lessons we learnt about our senses to help us investigate the world around us. This half-term we will be investigating the changing seasons as we move from Autumn to Winter. In Geography, we are looking at the question 'What is it like here?' learning about the environment around us. In Design and Technology we will be looking at how to make moving pictures ready to make our own moving picture book!
OUR DAILY ROUTINE:
We start every morning at 8.55 with the register, then it is straight into learning, so make sure to set those alarm clocks nice and early to get to school with plenty of time. The doors open at 8.45 and the children use the 10 minutes before the register to find their friends, get their bags ready and change their books if they need to.
After the register, we get stuck in to our reading squad (these are our reading groups) or spellings.
The morning continues with Collective Worship, English, playtime, Phonics then maths.
At lunchtime, we tell the children what they will be having for lunch and we encourage them to remember this so that they can tell the dinner supervisor. After they have eaten, the children go out to play.
In the afternoon, we have our foundation subjects such as science, RE, History/Geography, Art/DT and PE. The children will also have the opportunity to go to forest school with Miss Roberts.
What do you need to bring to school?
Please make sure you have a named water bottle in school. They are encouraged to drink plenty of water during the day and they can refill them in the classroom.
Remember to send your child with a fresh fruit/vegetable snack that they will have in the afternoons every day.
We try to get outside for playtime, whatever the weather! So make sure you bring a coat.
PE is on Thursday and Friday. On these days children can come in their PE kit.
Please ensure that your child’s belongings are clearly labelled with their names. This includes water bottles and fruit pots please.
