Welcome to Year 1/2

Welcome to our class, we are excited to get to know all the children and begin our exciting new year of learning. Our class is made up of 27 children and will be taught by Mrs Johnson. Supporting our class this year are some amazing teaching assistants.

A little bit of information about routines in our class:

Homework: will be sent home on a Friday and needs to be returned by Monday, this will be something that links to your child's learning that week and will be matched to their ability.

Reading books: will be sent home every day and will need to returned the next morning. We encourage all children to read regularly at home with a grown up, please can you then ensure the reading records are signed so we can see that the book has been read. Children will bring home a phonetically decodable reading book, which they should be able to read with some independence alongside a free choice book to enjoy with family. It is very important that the children re-read the same book regularly, as they need to see sounds and words again and again to transfer into their long-term memory.

PE: Our PE time is on a Monday and Thursday afternoon so please ensure there is a full PE kit in school.
