Welcome to the Year 1 class page!
My name is Miss Muirhead and I will be teaching Year 1 this year. Our wonderful teaching assistants, Mrs Brannon, Miss Hooper, Mrs Lee and Mrs MacFarlin are looking forward to working with the children and supporting their learning throughout the year.
Our PE day is Tuesday. We will be going down to the forest on Friday afternoons so please send your child into school with their forest school clothes in a named bag on this day.
Homework is set on a Tuesday and should be returned the following Monday. Reading is an essential skill that we continue to learn and develop in Year 1. Your child will be sent home with a reading book each week to consolidate their phonic skills. We ask that your child reads for 10 minutes daily to practise what they have been learning in school.
Reading books will be collected in on a Thursday and new ones will be issued on a Friday.
You can access information about our curriculum and the end of year expectations at the bottom of our page. We hope you enjoy looking at what we have been doing and learning together!
Please do not hesitate to contact me via Class Dojo if you have any queries.
