Year 1 Curriculum
For more information about our Year 1 Curriculum please see the below booklet
Please see below for details of what the children will be learning this half term.
Below you can find a list of recommended reads for Year 1
How can I help my child?
Every week, children will receive their spellings, which will need to be practised at home.
We also ask that children read at least 4 times a week and that you take the time to listen to and discuss their reading book with them.
Regular practice of counting to at least 30, forwards and backwards – starting from different numbers. Recognising and writing numbers, the right way round, to at least 30 will also benefit the children in building up fluency in mathematics and will help with their recording
Regular handwriting practise at home. Below you can see the handwriting script we follow.
