Welcome to our super Key Stage 1 class for Year 1 & 2 pupils!
A bit about us..
Years 1 and 2 are busy years for our children, especially for Year 1 children, who complete National Phonics tests where they are assessed on their ability to read a range of real and nonsense words using their phonic knowledge.
The class teacher is Miss Wild and she is supported by Mrs Leddy.
Class 2 Curriculum Overview
Our children work extremely hard, but we keep learning fun and engaging, so our children are empowered to exceed. However, whilst excellent progress in English and Maths is important, we also want to develop the whole child, so we strive to develop skills across the curriculum and promote emotional intelligence too. We have continuous provision in our class which builds on our EYFS provision to provide a seamless transition that ensures happy and enthusiastic learners.

Things you should know:
* We teach phonics using the ‘Little Wandle’ phonics scheme. Children are taught phonics for 1 hour per day, which includes group reading and writing. Each week, children are given a reading book that matches their phonic ability. They read this book in school 3 times per week. In group or individual reading, we have a different focus for each session: decoding, fluency and comprehension and prosody. We expect children to read this book 3 times a week at home too.
*Each week, children will be sent home ten spellings to learn ready for a spelling test on Friday.
