Respect Hope Confidence Faith Love Growing Together!
Remote Learning
Below is the Isolation pack for home learning, including a timetable of suggestions on how to organise the day.
This pack includes work in line with the National Curriculum, linked to our learning in class.
If you have any questions or need help, please get in contact using class dojo.
We want to share and praise the great work you do at home so please feel free to share photos via class dojo :)
In class One we are working very hard to progress in our learning now that we are in Key Stage One. We support each other as part of the St Giles family in order to 'grow together'. In all aspects of our classroom experience, we aim to demonstrate the Christian Values of our school.
We love and encourage a love of reading in Class One, focusing on different authors and what we like about their books.
By becoming more independent, hopefully children will be able to vocalize the things they have been doing in school. If you have any queries, Miss Slater is available to speak to via class dojo or phone. We also have planners as the first point of contact in school so this is a form of communication you can use to let us know any information and vice versa.
Here you will find information on topics, spellings and homework as well as the half-termly newsletters and more information. There will be photos uploaded as the year goes on to show some of the weird and wonderful activities that we get up to in class!

Please ensure you come at the correct time, wear a mask and adhere to social distancing rules. If you have siblings in school, we understand that your times are different.
Our PE day is on Tuesday. On this day children can come to school in PE kit and stay in PE kit all day. Please remember to bear the weather in mind when doing so - longer tracksuit bottoms and jackets are allowed.
Each day it is essential that children bring:
. A clean water bottle with fresh water (this is even more important during these times to ensure children are safe and hygienic)
. Their book bag (in order to change books, get new spelling words and communicate via planners)

Weekly spellings - Spring C
Children will have spellings each week to take home and practise. These will be tested the following Friday (copies are available below). It is essential children practise these spellings as they will be linked to the phonics sounds that your children will be tested as part of the national Phonics Screening Check in June.
The spellings are available to download below alongside a practise sheet to help children remember.

Spellings - Common Exception Words
Year One children also need to be able to read and write 45 common exception words, which as shown below and available underneath to download.
These, along side some high frequency words, will be given a few at a time in green books, which are used at home and school. When children have mastered the given words, they will be given some new ones. This will help them remember these key words consistently in their reading and writing as they progress into Year Two.
There are also some mats to help assist children with learning these spellings in the downloads underneath.
Children will re-cap sounds from Phase 3 and begin to learn phase 5 sounds. They should be able to identify the sound and also read words with this sound in.
Children will sit the National Screening Check in June 2021 where they will be asked to read 40 real and nonsense words containing the different sounds.
The sound mats are available to download below:
Reading Race
Throughout the school we are taking part in reading races. As children read at home, they get moved around the track. When they reach twenty reads they get a prize!
Please ensure that you record in planners when you have read so that we can change children's books as needed and move them along.
Times Tables Rockstars
Children will be given a log on to TTRS if they do not have one already. Here they can set up their own name, avatar and begin earning points. This is an amazing platform for children to improve their times tables as they go through school. They can record their scores and improve through stages. Children can race against those in other classes and even against teachers!
At the moment, I have set the times tables so they are doing x1, x2, x5 and x10. These are the times tables children should be aware of in Year One.
