Year 1 Miss Lambert- Happy Hedgehogs 2022 - 2023

Welcome to Year 1! We are the Happy Hedgehogs 

Welcome to Year One! We are the Happy Hedgehogs.

Our Team

We have a great staff team in Year One and are lucky to be supported by:

Mrs Hempsall, Miss Taylor, Mrs James, Mrs Miles, Miss Bouzertit and Miss Smikalova

Our Class

We are the Happy Hedgehogs! In our class we aim to foster a love for learning and value the importance of learning through doing. The children are encouraged to explore their talents and celebrate their successes. We follow the Town Field’s 3Cs to be calm, careful and considerate. We always try our best and use the Town Field 10 skills to develop as learners.

PE Lessons

Our PE lessons are on Mondays and Fridays. Please ensure that your child has a PE kit consisting of a white t-shirt, black or navy shorts and sensible footwear.

Reading

We value the importance of early reading and how reading supports children to thrive in all areas of the curriculum. We ask that pupils bring their reading book and reading diary to school daily. New reading books will be sent home each Friday along with a reading task to support learning that has taken place that week. We ask that you read with your child as much as possible to support their early reading journey. Please remember to sign your child’s reading diary every time they read at home.

We are learning

This term we will be reading the texts Nibbles, who is a book monster and changes what happens in some of our favourite traditional tales! Our class writing will be based around this story. In maths, we will be focusing on addition and subtraction strategies and learning to read o’clock and half past times on an analogue clock. In science, we will be naming body parts of animals including humans, then exploring the five senses. We will be practising our painting and colour mixing skills in art and exploring the four countries of the UK and the surrounding seas in geography.

If you need support, have questions, or wish to share successes from home, please don’t hesitate to ask, we are here to help.
