Autumn 2
English
This term, we will be starting our 'Grammarsaurus' work; developing our understanding of punctuation and grammar by learning how to use capital letters and full stops within simple sentences. We will also learn some key terminology relating to grammar, such as 'nouns', 'verbs' and 'adjectives'. We will continue to read lots of stories such as 'Dogger' by Shirley Hughes.
Little Wandle
Our reading and phonics is taught through our daily Little Wandle sessions. The children will be heard read three times a week and will develop their skills of Decoding, Prosody and Comprehension. Reading books will be changed every Monday. We encourage all children to read their books at home every day to support these skills.
A weekly phonics overview sheet will be sent home every Monday. These are to inform parents of the phonics being covered that week and for children to practice certain spellings at home if they wish to do so.
Your child can also choose and change their love of reading library book throughout the week once they have finished it.
Maths
Our Maths learning this term will focus on:
Understanding the part-whole model, fact families, number bonds to 10 and addition and subtraction of one or two digits. Shape Naming and describing
PE
Our PE days will be on a Tuesday and Wednesday.
This half term will focus on:
Ball skills (Hands) The children will develop their ball skills through bouncing, sending the ball with control, accuracy and speed and receiving and stopping a ball.
Health and Well-being The focus of the learning is to understand the importance of being coordinated and agile.
Class organisation
Within Year 1 we follow a Continuous Provision alongside our whole class and group teaching approach during the Autumn Term. The children will have a main lesson input as a whole class and then complete their independent work with an adult in a small, focused group. They are able to access activities within the classroom or outside alongside this learning which will further their understanding of topics.
