Autumn Term - Shelford Stars
Autumn 1 - Week 1
This week we have been learning the new routines in Year 1, exploring our new classroom and resources and getting to know the adults who will be helping us this year.
In phonics we have been revisiting some of the GPCs and tricky words that were introduced in Reception. If you see us with a tricky word sticker this is to help us to get some extra practise.
In PSHE lessons we have been thinking about the school rules, our feelings about starting Year 1, how we can show kindness to others. We have read lots of stories to help us with our learning in PSHE.
We also enjoyed our first Forest Friday - playing games and collecting natural materials.

Helping your child at home
Here are a few suggestions of how you can help your child at home:
Reading with your child - a few minutes every day is more beneficial than one or two longer sessions a week.
Practising letter and number formation - help your child to start each letter in the correct place.
Counting to 20 (or beyond), forwards and backwards, and reading and writing the numerals.
Naming the days of the week in order.
Number bonds to 10 (4 + 1 = 5, 2 + 5 = 7, 3 + 7 = 10)
Learning to read Year 1 tricky words (and reviewing those taught in Reception).
Reviewing the graphemes taught in Reception along with new ones in Year 1. Look out for words that contain these!
