Homework
Reading
Please read with your child for 15 minutes a day. Please discuss your child’s book with them to help them to understand what they have read; comprehension is a key skill alongside fluency.
If you love reading as much as we do, then you may get through quite a few! Here are a few websites recommending more great books to read in Year 1.
Number formation
During the first few weeks, one of the things we are going to focus on is number formation. Can you practise at home? Make sure your child starts at the top of the number like it is shown on this sheet.
Spellings
By the end of year one, children should be able to confident spelling these common exception words.
