Year 1 - Elm Class

Welcome to Elm Class​

Class Teacher: Mrs Gauge​

Support Staff: Mrs Ingram & Mrs Mapletoft

​

PE days: Monday & Wednesday - children should come to school in appropriate kit.​

Home Learning Expectations: Children are expected to practise core skills every week:

• Words will be sent home each week for your child to learn to read and write them. They will practice writing them on a Thursday. Dojo points will be given if home practice is evident.

• Reading books will be sent home each week. Please listen to your child read as often as you can but you only need to write one comment a week in their diary.​

The Year 1 Curriculum: Some curriculum highlights can be found on the Autumn Term Parent Briefing information. Full information is available on the curriculum section of our website.​

All children in Year 1 take part in the Year 1 phonics screening check in June which consists of real and nonsense words containing phonetically decodable graphemes.
