PE
Our PE lessons will be on a Wednesday afternoon with a sports coach from Everton Partnership. Due to COVID19 restrictions your child is to come into school wearing their outdoor PE kit on this day.
Homework
Reading
Children are expected to read at home as much as possible and can still have books from school to take home. However, with COVID-19 restrictions, any book or book bag brought back to school will need to be left for at least 24 hours before being changed. Books need to be returned to school on a Tuesday. They will be changed and new ones sent out on a Thursday. Children who read at home will receive 5 dojos which they can spend at the end of each term.
Spelling
After half term the children will receive a list of spellings to learn each week.
Maths
By the end of Year 1 Children are expected to be able to count forwards and backwards to 100 from any number. Please practise counting at home.
