Language, Literacy and Communication In Year 1 this term, pupils will be focusing on their phonics, ensuring they have a solid understanding of their sounds, including recognising and writing them. Phonics lessons will take place twice a week. This will be Phase 2 and Phase 3 sounds. Pupils will be working hard to develop their oracy skills and will complete regular activities, where they have opportunities to work in groups to share their ideas with their peers. Pupils will be supported with their reading and comprehension skills through daily GGR sessions.

This term our inquiry is called ‘Our Community.’ Pupils will explore their own community, looking at the past and present and exploring how it has changed over time. They will identify similarities/ differences and investigate how human actions and beliefs shape communities as well as identifying places within their community. Pupils will have the opportunity to go on a trip to St Fagans Museum, where they can explore and understand how people used to live many years ago. The knowledge that the pupils gain from this trip will be used to feed into their inquiry in the next few weeks. |
