Welcome

Welcome to Year 1 and 2!

On this page, you will find our class timetable, termly planning overviews and useful links to websites and documents to help extend your child's learning at home.

Weekly Timetable

Here is the KS1 timetable for this term. We will be having a 'With Me In Mind' Monday which focuses on developing well-being. Some children will also be taking part in 'Rocksteady' music lessons.

Our children will complete guided reading three times a week with a focus on decoding, prosody and comprehension. They will also receive an additional session which focuses on developing the strategic skills of comprehending a text.

PE days will be Wednesday and Friday. This may change depending on any additional sporting activities.

spring 2

Here is an overview of what we will be focusing on during Spring 2. There may be additional activities planned based on sporting events or religious festivals. This term, we will also be preparing for Easter.

Reading

We use the Collins Big Cat reading books in school and follow the Little Wandle approach to teaching reading. Children practise decoding unfamiliar words, learn how to read with fluency and answer key questions about the text. A new reading book is sent home each Friday. Please practise reading the book with your child and sign in their reading record. We expect children to read at home five times per week.
