Please click here to see our Year 1 Spring Term Curriculum 

Year one has 30 pupils in the class and is taught by Mrs Barnes. Teaching and learning is supported by Miss Cooper 

We aim to build upon the knowledge and skills gained in Reception by providing them with a curriculum that is creative, exciting and engaging for all learners. In Year One we are trying to encourage children to become more independent in the way they think and learn, so please try to let your children organise themselves when they come in in the mornings.  Parental support makes a huge difference to your child’s education.  We are lucky to have such supportive parents at Church of England School of the Resurrection.  We would appreciate continued support and encouragement at home to reinforce the learning that is taking place in the classroom. 

We have assigned each child with a reading book Reading Book for reading practice which is kept at school and read with your child each week. We encourage the children to read to practice their ability to decode,  to increase fluency and to be able to answer the questions and describe and summarise what they have read.

PE is on Wednesday and Thursday. We recommend that the children bring in their kit and keep it at school so that it is ready for them. Weather permitting some of their lessons will be outside therefore pumps will be needed also.

Homework

Learning Logs: activities are given out every two weeks. Each task has three levels Bronze, Silver and Gold.  Children have 2 weeks to complete their task and return it on the date given. Children will be given a special award sticker to celebrate their efforts.
