PE
Our PE days are Thursday and Friday.
Please make sure your child comes into school wearing their PE kit on those days.
Reading
We love reading in Year 1!
Year 1's reading books will be changed every Friday.
The children MUST have their books in school everyday so we can read with them.
Click here for some useful tips on how you can support your child with Reading at home. We suggest you read with your child at least 4-5 times a week.
If you need any support with reading at home, please come and speak with Miss Panetta.
Spellings

In Spring 1, we are learning about Place Value of numbers within 100. We will be counting to and across 100, forwards and backwards, beginning with 0 or 1, or from any given number. We will learn to identify one more and one less of a number to 100.
We will also be identifying, representing and comparing numbers using objects and pictures including the number line, and use the language of: equal to, more than, less than (fewer), most, least.
Finally, we will learn to partition numbers to 100. Learning how many tens and how many ones are in 2 digit numbers.
In the second half of the term, we will learn to add and subtract to 10. First we will learn to read, write and interpret mathematical statements involving addition (+), subtraction (–) and equals (=) signs. We will also practise solving lots of one-step problems that involve addition and subtraction, using concrete objects and pictorial representations, and missing number problems such as 7 = – 9.
Throughout the term we will continue to become fluent in representing and using number bonds and related subtraction facts within 20 through The Mastery of Number programme.
Please help your child at home by practising counting to 100 forwards and backwards. Help them to spot 2 digit numbers in their home and out and about. Ask them to identify the number and tell you how many tens and how many ones it has. Help your child to learn the number bonds to 5, then 10 and when they are completely ready, to 20. The game 'Hit The Button' is great for this.
This fun shark game is about matching the numeral to the correct tens and ones shown.
