Welcome to Year 1 and 2

The Summer term's theme is, "Up,up and away".

We hope you have had a lovely break and are now looking forward to all the exciting things we are going to be doing during the summer term.

Here are some of the topics the children will be covering this term. You can find more detail on this on the 'Curriculum page'.

English: Fiction -familiar stories and stories from other countries. Non fiction writing- historical recounts
Maths: fractions, position and direction, measures
Science: Plants
Art: Nature sculptures
DT: Making our packaging
History: Learning all about famous explorers including Amelia Earhart
Geography: Continents and Oceans
PSHE: Relationships and changing me
RE: Religion and rituals

P.E days are Monday and Thursday. Please come in P.E kit on these days- we will probably be outside on Thursday- weather permitting. If Forest school sessions are planned later in the term for the class, we will let you know.

Homework

Reading three times per week for 20 minutes but every day if possible! Please record in your child's Reading Diary. This is a great opportunity to build up your stamps on your reading award too! Spellings will be posted in the reading diary every week and there will picture books for you to enjoy too.

Spellings for all children will be sent home on a Wednesday based on the phonics learning that week or on "tricky words" that can't be sounded out. It is important that they are practised at home. Spell checks will be completed the following Wednesday before the new week's words are sent home.

If you do have anything you wish to discuss, please pop in and see us. Thank you for your continued support.

Mrs King and Mrs Bebbington
