Class One
New starters information
Welcome to Class One
2026-27
Topic 1
Me & My Community
During Topic 1, we will be exploring Me and My Community and learning about what makes each of us special and unique. We will be thinking about the special people in our lives and the important role they play in our community. We will also be learning about the different parts of our bodies and discovering what they are used for. Along the way, we will enjoy reading wonderful stories such as When We Were Giants, Funny Bones and The Colour Monster.
Our Christian Value is: Thankfulness
| Literacy | You will learn how to read through our phonics scheme Essential Letters and Sounds. You will learn lots of new sounds and begin to blend sounds together to read. We will apply our phonic knowledge to our literacy lessons where we will practice writing initial sounds and short words. We will listen to lots of wonderful stories and retell them through story maps, sequencing and role play. |
