Mrs Craig welcomes you to Year 1/2 Black Base!
Welcome to our class page, where you will find all the useful information that you need for the year ahead.
Our day starts at 8:40am when our door will be open for children to come in until 8:50am. Our day ends at 3:20pm.
PE
Our PE days are Tuesday and Friday.
Children need to come in their P.E. kit which is trainers, black shorts/bottoms, a white t-shirt and black zip up jacket. Please make sure your child can remove their own earrings or remove these prior to PE on these days. Thank you.
Homework
Homework is daily reading in Year One and Two. Please make sure you write in your child's reading record once you have read with them.
The aim is to read a minimum of 5 times in a week for 5 to 10 minutes per time. This will greatly help your child build fluency in reading. Our book swap is on Monday when children will receive a new book if they have returned their old book.
In Key Stage One, we will also practise reading and spelling the Y1 and Y2 Common exception words. These will be sent home at the beginning of each half term in Reading Records and will be highlighted when your child can read and spell these. Year Two will also have weekly spelling lists sent home to practise throughout the year.
As well as regular reading and spelling, we hand out half-termly homework projects based upon the upcoming topic in class.
In half term three, our topic is called 'Childhood Through Time.'
