P.E and Games
For indoor P.E the children will need; indoor pumps, black shorts and a white T-shirt. For outdoor games the children will need, outdoor trainers, a top and tracksuit. These kits need to be labelled with your child’s name and kept at school at all times. Kit’s will be returned home half termly to be cleaned. Angel fish PE day is on Thursday.
 
Earrings

Homework
Children will be given a set of spellings and a reading book once every week. Supporting your child with these will help you to be involved with their learning and support it at home. If your child experiences difficulties or there is a reason for not returning homework, please do not hesitate to contact school.
If your child misplaces their homework or spellings they are more than welcome to get another copy.    
Spelling sheets

​Any questions please feel free to ask myself or a member of the Key Stage 1 staff.

Our current class topic is The Great Fire of London.

In Year 1 we have a big focus on learning our times tables. We need to know our 2x tables, 5x tables and 10x tables. Children should be practising these at home to retain them. Songs often help children to remember their times tables. Some of these can be found below.
