Year 1
Weekly Update
Friday 27th January 2023
Dear parents and carers,
Our learning next week:
English
|
We will continue to learn about story writing |
Maths
|
Exploring addition, subtraction and shape |
Phonics
|
Grow the code – explore different sounds that diagraphs/trigraphs make Continue with Streamed Phonics sessions Continue to explore real / made up words |
As we head into phonics assessment weeks, and because we have INSET on the last Friday of this half term, your child will read 3 times over 2 weeks in class. This means we will not be sending home a practise reading book until next Thursday (9th Feb). Please return the one(s) you currently have on Friday (2nd) Feb.
To support your child to make rapid progress with their reading and comprehension skills, please read with your child daily (you don’t have to read all of the books every day).
This week your child has brought home ‘real and made up words’ to help with spellings and word recognition – please enjoy discussing these words as a family.
Below you will find the slides from our parent reading evening that was held on Wednesday 11th January:

If you have an iPad please upload PocketPhonic Stories. This is an app that is excellent for teaching handwriting, phonics and reading. You will need to log in for your child but then they should be able to complete these on their own. There are certificates you can print off to motivate your child.
