Year 1/2 (2020 - 2021)
Welcome back Year 1 and 2!
We cannot wait to get settled in and ready for our new year groups. We hope that you have had a lovely Summer and are ready to be back at school. We have missed those of you that we didn't see over lockdown and welcome you back.
For the first few weeks in year 1 and 2, we will spend time getting to know each other and learning all about ourselves.

Phonics
Look carefully at all of the phonics sounds that we will be working on throughout the year.
They are in phase order and the more you work on these sounds the better your reading, spelling and writing will become.
There are many books that the children can work through.
Year 2 can find some recommended books here:

Reminder time...
OTIS is on Wednesday and your second PE session is either on Monday (Blue Class), Tuesday (Red Class), or Thursday(Yellow Class) You should come to school in your PE kit on these days.
Don't forget to bring your water bottle into school each day and remember to sip lots of water throughout the day. This will help to keep you healthy and will also help you to concentrate with your work.
Also, please remember to bring your book bag with your reading book in each day.
There are many websites which are useful for phonics activities and early Mathematics. Please have a look at some and share these with your children.
