A Day in the Key Stage One Department. • The bell is rung a few minutes before 8:40am.

Groups • The children are grouped according to assessments made of their progress. • There is movement between the groups. • In literacy groups are taught by all members of staff following the same R Write Inc format. • In Big Maths we have 3 groups but within that group other members of staff work alongside teachers. • We also have before school groups- 8:20am-8:40am. These are to boost phonics. If your child is invited to attend it does not mean they are struggling. We intend to invite quite a large number of Year Ones in September.

What your child needs to bring • Their reading bag with their book and reading record every day • Packed lunch if not on dinners • A bottle of water for class time (no other drink) • Suitable coat • PE kits must be in school • Show and Tell- interesting objects/ things they have made. (The children need to prepare at home what they want to say about their object.) • In the winter we will ask for wellingtons to be brought in for outdoor learning. • Don’t bring in toys, football cards, pencil cases etc. • Birthdays-please don’t send in sweets or chocolate.
Rewards listen concentrate work together try hard be polite be kind do as you are asked • If your child has managed to achieve all the above in a day we give them a Happy Gram to take home. • If they are not trying to do as they have been asked they are given a warning. After that they may loose their Happy Gram, though if they show a sustained effort to do as they are asked after being spoken to they may win it back. • When a child has 10 Happy Grams they bring them in on Friday when we have a special assembly. They then receive a special sticker. • If your child comes home with any other type of sticker this is because they have done particularly well with their work. • At the Friday assembly- weekly trophy for sustained effort and good behaviour, Good News Certificates- particularly good work, helpfulness, kindness, stickers for 10 Happy Grams. • Head Teacher’s Certificate
