Year 1

Welcome to Year 1

The staff in Year 1 this year are Miss Jones, Mrs. Mangles and Mrs. Dearlove

Timetable and Class Information

In Year 1, our PE day is Tuesday.

Phonics is taught every day at 10.30am

Reading

In Year 1, we will continue to develop your child’s reading skills.  Your child will have a daily Read, Write Inc lesson taught in small, adult led groups where they will take part in reading and writing activities to to further develop their phonic skills.  They will be heard reading individually during the week and your child’s reading book will be changed regularly. We would really appreciate your support in developing your child’s reading skills by listening to them read every night and modelling reading to them to develop their reading for pleasure.  It would be great if you could write a little comment in their reading record so that we know your child has read at home.

Read Write Inc Resources

Following on from our reading meeting, please click on each link to access the Read Write Inc videos and guides to help support your children with their reading at home.  If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
