Welcome to Bears Class (Year 1)
Hello Bears! Miss Sullivan will be your teacher and will be assisted by Miss Hawkett, Mrs Kavanagh and Mrs Moore
Year One is an exciting year of learning! Throughout our time together we develop children’s independence, social skills and foster love of learning both in and out of the classroom.
In English we focus on independent sentence writing and progress to forming short narratives. We explore a broad variety of stories to develop our writing. A range of artists inspire our own artwork and we have great fun investigating animals, living things and different materials in Science. History lessons teach us about significant people and events such as Rosa Parks and the Great Fire of London. We also consider how these influence our lives today.
We continue to use Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised to teach phonics and early reading. Supporting children to develop fluency, comprehension and prosody.
More information about our Year One curriculum for individual subjects can be found on our curriculum pages and in our termly newsletters.
We look forward to welcoming you into Bear Class!
