Welcome to Year 1 - The children will still be learning through play, they will still be exploring, discovering and making use of the areas of provision around the room. The day will be more structured than it was in Reception. The children will be learning in a variety of ways to support them in making the most progress that they can. Your child will be learning through a variety of topics, which makes lessons fun and exciting. This will include History, Geography, Art and DT. In English, the children’s stimulus will be through all sorts of wonderful stories and clips from films. Maths lessons will enjoyable, with plenty of hands-on activities to encourage independent learning. There will be an enhanced focus on Phonics, picking up from where they left off in Reception, which will encourage the children to apply these skills in Reading and Writing.
