Welcome to Year 1 and 2 in Green Base!
Miss Tipton, Mrs Flinders, Mrs Lamb, Mrs Cox and Ms Johnson WELCOME you to Year 1 and 2 in Green Base!
Welcome to our class page, where you will be able to find all the useful information you need for the year and see some of our brilliant learning as well.
If there is any information you cannot see on this page, please come and see us when you pick up your child or contact the school office by email and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
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 (outdoor) and Thursday (indoor). Children need to come to school in their PE kit.
This includes:
Trainers
Their team coloured t-shirt
Black shorts/bottoms
Black zip up/ jumper or hoodie
Please be aware your child needs long hair tied back and to be able to remove their own earrings on these days as well.
Homework
Homework is daily reading in Y1/2. 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 day is Monday where children will receive a new book if they have brought their old book back.
We will also practice reading and spelling the Year 1 and 2 Common Exception Words. These will be sent home at the beginning of each half term in reading records and will be highlighted when the children can read and spell these. Year 2 will also have weekly spelling rule lists sent home to practice throughout the year.
As well as regular reading and spelling, we hand out half termly homework projects based upon the upcoming focus in class.
In half term three, our topic is ‘Childhood Through Time.'
