Year 1 - Starfish

Welcome to the Starfish Class

 

Welcome to the Year 1 Starfish Class! I am Miss McNeill and I am the class teacher. We also have Miss Jabeen working with us as our Teaching Assistant. We are going to have lots of fun this year learning new and exciting topics and we can't wait to watch the children progress and blossom with their learning in Year 1. 

 

 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to come and see me.

Reading

As I am sure you are aware, reading is the key to opening many successful and exciting doors for your child.

Please listen to your child read for 10 minutes every night to help them progress with their reading. 

 

Please sign your child's reading diary when you listen to them read. Your child will have a reading day at school and we will check their reading record. We will also know if your child has finished their book at home if it is signed.

 

How do I pronounce the sounds in my child's reading book?

Take a look at the video from Oxford Owl for help with the pronunciation of sounds.

We are reading...

 

Julia Donaldson Stories.

Maths

It is important to count with your children on a daily basis. You could make it part of your morning routine whilst travelling to school or even whilst making breakfast!

 

We will be learning number bonds to 10 and 20 in Year One and it would really benefit your child if you helped them to practise these at home. 

 

We will also be learning our 2x, 5x and 10x tables throughout the year!

 

PE

 

PE lessons are taught by Mr Ashraf and/or Miss McNeill on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Please ensure all uniform and PE kit items are CLEARLY LABELLED. Thank you smiley
