Welcome to Class 1
Welcome to Class 1!
We are excited to dive in to some fantastic learning themes this year:
Autumn 1 - Discovering Diggle
Autumn 2- Winter in the Antarctic
Spring 1 & 2 - Famous People
Summer 1- London’s Burning
Summer 2- African Adventure
In Autumn 1 our topic is ‘Discovering Diggle’ where we will explore our local area. We will learn about where Diggle is in the UK and learn the countries that make up the united Kingdom and their capital cities. We will also learn about the surrounding seas. We will learn about the physical and human features of our local area. We will begin to use and draw simple maps.
Key Information
PE will alternate between Thursdays and Fridays each half term. I will let parents know at the start of each half term what day PE will be on. Children should come to school dressed in their kits on PE days.
Reading books are changed on your child’s specific day but please make sure that reading books are brought to school every day. We give 1 book at a time but you can ask for more if these do not last the week. Please listen to your child read and re read their book every day to develop confidence and fluency. Once per week please ask one of the reading questions in the front of the reading record and write your child’s response.
