Year 1 Homework
Many of our children read daily at home to an adult, either their school reading books or sharing stories of their own which is fantastic.
Research has shown that children who read daily at home, not only have a higher reading age but also have better outcomes with spelling and writing. It is also a lovely opportunity to spend some time with your child.
Every week your child will be read with in school and there book will be changed when needed. Please could you try and read a page or two with your child five times a week.
Some children may have some additional practise sounds or words to work on or tricky words to focus on. If this is the case your child's teacher will speak to you and explain what they might need to help them with their learning.
Current homework for Year 1 can be downloaded below:
In Term One we ask for the Year One children to simply enjoy reading at home on a regular basis. We recognize that moving into Key Stage One can be very tiring for the children and as the year progresses the children will have an increase in small home challenges and a homework book at the start of Term Three.
We would however like you to talk with your child about a piece of music they enjoy listening to at home. When your child has thought of a tune they love then please could we ask them to come in with the title and artist written down so we can share their favourite song with the class. Please could we politely ask you to consider the lyrics in the songs so that they are appropriate to listen to.
