Welcome to Red Arrows!

Red Arrows Class

Year 1

Welcome to Red Arrows! We are a fantastic group of Year 1 children. We are taught by Mrs Ward on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and Mrs Smith on Thursdays and Fridays. Mrs Troop is our brilliant teaching assistant! Keep checking back for updates of learning we are doing. 

Autumn Term 1 

We are excited to welcome you into Year 1.  We can't wait to get to know you all and to learn lots of brand new knowledge!

This term our PE sessions are on a Tuesday and Friday so please come to school dressed in your PE kit.

New reading books and phonics homework will be sent out on a Friday.    

Find below the curriculum overview for the term.

English 

This term we will be reading stories based on the theme of 'bears'.  We will enjoy listening to and discussing different stories and using these books to inspire our writing.  We will practise our lowercase letter formation, spelling of tricky words and application of phonics in our writing.  

Maths 

We will enjoy working with concrete equipment to demonstrate and deepen our place value knowledge of numbers to 10.  We will practise adding and subtracting within 10 using a variety of different representations.  We will name and identify 2D and 3D shapes.  

History 

We begin the year learning about old toys and comparing them to the toys used today.  We will play with some old toys, discussing the materials they are made from and the way the may have been played with.
