Welcome to class 1’s page:
Autumn KS1 Project Overview 25
This autumn is full of creativity, discovery and fun!
In English, the children are enjoying a range of stories about toys—sparking imagination, inspiring discussion and linking to our wider curriculum. Children will also boost their confidence in reading and writing through regular phonics, spelling and handwriting.
In Maths, we’re focusing on place value before moving on to addition and subtraction; using hands-on activities to bring numbers to life. Our Science lessons investigating materials will foster opportunities for curiosity and exploration.
In History, we’re exploring Toys Through Time, comparing the children’s own toys with those from their parents, grandparents and the Victorian era. In Geography, we’re discovering UK weather—observing changes, spotting patterns and learning how it shapes daily life.
Key Information:
🏃 PE – Year 1 and Year 2 have PE on Mondays. Please ensure children bring their PE kit to school at the start of term.
📝 Homework – Set on Fridays and due back the following Wednesday.
📚 Library – Days will be confirmed in the first week of term.
📖 Reading – Children should bring their reading diary to school every day. Please read at home five times a week—each read earns a stamp towards the Reading Rainbow!
👢 Wellies – Children should keep a pair of wellies at school for play in all weathers.
