Welcome to Year 1

Welcome to our Year 1 Web Pages.  We're excited for our Autumn term and have lots of exciting learning ahead of us.  Here is what we will be learning about this term:

• Our main theme this term is ‘Childhood’. This is a history-based topic and we will be learning all about ourselves, including learning about everyday life and families today, including looking at childhood from the past.
• After half term we will be learning about where we live in “Our Wonderful World.”
• In Maths we will be consolidating our learning on place value, including knowing one more and one less than a number. We will then move on to simple addition and subtraction.
• In Science we will be learning about everyday materials and the human body parts and senses.
• Our Art will be based upon drawing faces and making funny collages.

You can read more information about our topics on the knowledge organiser below. 

Things you can help with at home:

• Practising reading and enjoying talking about books and other kinds of text.
• Telling and sharing stories.
• Letter  and number formation - It is crucial that the children are starting their letters in the right place.  Please see document above on letter formation.
• Cutting skills and any fine motor-skills.
