Reading Books
Make sure your reading book and yellow card is in school everyday.
PE
Our PE day is a Monday (spring 1).
The PE curriculum is delivered by Mr Mann who is a PE specialist.
At the moment we are not getting changed into PE kits due to PE being held outside and we will let you know when to bring one in.
Phonics
We have a big focus on phonics in Year one.
Phonics is delivered twice a day.
A typical phonics session includes;
- recapping previous taught sounds
- teaching a new sound
- practising reading words by segmenting and blending with the new sound
- writing words with the new sound
- reading alien words (nonsense words)
- practising reading and writing a sentence
You can help your child at home by accessing the websites below;
- Phonics play

Christmas Songs
Unfortunately, we couldn’t invite you into school to enjoy a concert this year. However, we have still worked hard to bring you some Christmas cheer. We hope you enjoy our Christmas song videos and have a happy holiday.
