Year 1

Class Name 

Robins - Miss Roberts 

School Day

Children who arrive after 8:45 am but before 9:15 am will be marked as 'Late' (L) whilst the register is open. This will not affect the attendance percentage but persistent lateness will lead to parents meeting with senior leaders to discuss possible support and find solutions to prevent further lateness. Failure to improve lateness may lead to parents been reported to the Local Authority Attendance Team.

Children who arrive after 9:15 am (All year groups) will be marked as 'Late' (U) after the register has closed. This will count against the attendance rate. Persistent lateness after 9:15 am will raise safeguarding concerns and further actions will be taken to support the parents to improve the attendance rate. Parents will be reported to the Local Authority Attendance Team who may have direct involvement with parents.

Communication with the Team

• Morning communications when children arrive must be brief (teachers are busy starting lessons). If needed, hand over a written note to provide more detail and we can phone you during the day.
• Teachers are usually available at the end of each day for a short chat if needed.
• Alternatively send an email to office@silverstone.pdet.org.uk and this will be forwarded to Miss Roberts.

PE Days

 Equipment 

• Water bottle (named)- water only
• Packed lunch bag if not having school dinner
• Book bag or small bag with reading diary and books
• Coat / hat (weather dependent)

Due to very small cloakrooms it is helpful if children only bring a small bag into school. Checking their school bags daily is a good habit to get into.

All other resources are provided by school. 

Homework 

Year 1 will not be given homework during the first half term. Homework will gradually increase from after the October half term.

Reading - It is expected that your child reads at home daily for at least 10 minutes with an adult. Re-reading a book several times, becoming familiar with tricky words in a book and asking questions to develop reading comprehension skills can be useful. Please see information in your child's reading record on what this should look like.

Maths - Year 1 to practice counting in 1s and 10s and look at number bonds to 10.

Please refer to the table below for the homework this term. This will consist of an English or maths activity each week.

Please ensure your child's reading book and reading record is in school each day. Children in the class all have a nominated day to change their reading book.
