Welcome to Year 1

(Scroll down to find out about our NEW theme this term)

Over the next year we will making the most of our time at school, and you can see some of our learning highlights on our blog.  We also put a lot of our learning onto Seesaw, which means our families at home can see what we have been getting up to in school.

There are two Year 1 classes at Tudor:

1O - is taught by Miss Gamble and Miss North.

1P - is taught by Miss Scott and Mrs Barry.

Every week, both classes are taught by Miss Houston for one day.

PE DAYS

This term our P.E. days are on Monday and Tuesday.

HOMEWORK:

In Year 1 we expect children to read every night and have their reading records signed by an adult. They will bring home a book linked to their Phonics lessons each week and will keep this for the whole week.  They can also share a library book with an adult.  We will be setting weekly tasks linked to Phonics and Maths. 

Homework will be given out each Friday and any written tasks will be due in the following Wednesday.

AUTUMN TERM THEME – TOY STORIES

This term within our ‘Toy Stories’ theme we will be exploring everything to do with toys.

  

We will be looking at questions such as:

How have toys changed since our parents and grandparents were children? 

What toys did people play with in the past?

What materials are different toys made out of?

What properties do these materials have?

We will also be reading lots of stories about toys and exploring the locations in the stories, comparing these with our own locality. 

For more details about what we will be learning please look at the overview at the bottom of this page. 

At the bottom of the page you will also find some key information about this year.  If you have any questions please speak to us at the classroom door or pop a note in your child's red book.
