Year 1

2025.2026

 Autumn 1

This really has been an amazingly positive start to the new school year. We have all felt welcomed back after being mixed up from our reception classes. It has been fantastic being able to see all our friends again.

We are all trying our best to sit at our tables for some of our lessons, and we are amazing at putting up our hands to answer questions and are superstars at listening to instructions. 

Religious Education

To start our half-term, we will be learning all about the wonderful 'Creation Story' and that special gift to us from God.

Phonics

This half-term, we are revising some of the Little Wandle learning from Reception. We will then start to look at the sounds in Phase 5.

Maths

Throughout this half-term we are learning all about numerical reasoning. This means we will be learning lots about place value through exploring, clarifying and applying everything we have learnt when we use the resources in our practical lessons to strengthen our understanding or number.

Science/Geography

This half-term we will be learning all about the season of Autumn and exploring seasonal changes. We will be going on an Autumn walk around the school exploring how the weather changes throughout the season and what happens to nature around us.

Art

Andy Goldsworthy is a modern-day British artist who does NOT use paint, pencils, pens, crayons etc to create his pieces of art. How can this be possible? This is the question we will be asking before creating our own masterpieces using his techniques and inspirational guidance.
